Only 4 more weeks to go!!!

Otherwise known as forever. Okay, okay, I know that it's not that bad. What makes it worse is that I've been keeping up with the August 2008 mommies on Babycenter.com and so many of them are already having their babies! I'm jealous; I'm really looking forward to finally meeting little Andrew.

I had a doctor's appointment today and talked to him about my concerns over the c-section date. He was nice enough to apologize and tell me that he wanted to do it earlier too but the 28th was the only date available after I hit 39 weeks. And the hospital of course has a policy not to do c-sections before 39 weeks unless it's an emergency. I told him I think I'm going to go early, and he reassured me that it happens and it's no big deal. As long as I'm paying attention and get to the hospital as soon as I can, there's really very little risk of my scar rupturing and they'll just do the c-section when I get there.

I think I got lucky, I like my doctor. I feel like he really listens, and so I'm feeling a lot better about the late date.

Tomorrow I am going to be 36 weeks along, so that means 4 more weeks if everything stays on course. There is still so much I want to do, but I'm really slowing down as I get farther into this pregnancy. I still want to clean out the car, and really give the kitchen a good scrub-down, but I'm not sure anymore that those things are going to happen. It's frustrating, but I know it's better not to push myself into doing things I just can't right now. Does anyone want to volunteer to come clean my house for me? LOL

There's not much else going on right now. It's all just a waiting game until the end of August. I just have to keep telling myself, "4 more weeks, only 4 more weeks..."
