Feeling very eager now to behold our daughter. About six more weeks to go until due date, but she will be considered term in only four more weeks (even more, we can still deliver her at the Midwife Center if she were born in 3 more weeks, as long as it is after 36 weeks I think--otherwise hospital here we come!). Everyday feels like she grows so much...her new favorite move is pressing out one of her limbs in my right side. However she is contorted in there, she spans my entire abdomen!
Jon and I still have a few more things left to check off on baby planning, but we're feeling prepared overall. We're taking an Infant CPR class in a few weeks and still need to do baby shopping for last essentials which we'll probably get to this Saturday. In terms of American living, we rank with the simplest as far as baby items go. Except for the corner of our bedroom where we stash her clothes and blankets, you wouldn't think a baby will be living here in a month or so. No crib, no bassinet, no changing table, no baby bath, no stroller! It's actually kind of funny when I think about it, but I feel better starting off without much and acquiring what we need later as we discover that we actually need it.
We do have a good car seat and diapers so at the least she will be safe and civilized ;)
