The baby’s room is now complete. I have finished washing all the linens and clothes and put everything away, all nice and organized. I redid her closet and changing table and set out the items that I know we will be using. I packed her part of the hospital back. I included a receiving blanket so that we can get her scent on it…and spycom can bring it home so the dogs can get familiar with it before she comes home.
It is only a matter of weeks now…..or even days for that matter.
I have had increased lower abdomen pressure and pain in my lower back. Soon she shall descend……..
the contractions are still coming every day….all day…but still very inconsistent. Although, they are more frequent in the evening.
Sometimes I hope they are the real deal………because I am so anxious but I know I should really relish this time while I have it.
A time of rest, reflection, preparation and calm before the storm.
A storm I anxiously await and never stop thinking of.
