Well the due date has been changed!

I really don't mean to bother any of you with my *bump* for countown, but I have 11 more days until I'm a mommy! It's so real! I can't wait to meet my baby. My excitement overrides my fear and I'm just so excited. I wonder how big she'll be, and if I even would have been able to push her out naturally. My hubbys side has enormous babies (9.5-10 lb 10 oz range), but my side has very normal sized babies (low 7lb range). I also wonder if she'll have lots of hair like I did when I was born, or if she'll be bald.....SOOOO excited to find out!!!!

Congrats!!! That's so exciting!!!

It's a very good day to be born. Jenny approves She will be 5 feb 21st.

Leslie, I'm comforted by the fact that you are coming to terms with the C-section aspect and by the time the day arrives I'm thinking that you will feel even more at peace with it. Who knows (God knows) in the scheme of things this may really be what is for the best for both you and the baby. Be thankful that with all the prenatal care you have had access to that there are procedures to make everything go well. In other words, concentrate on the positive aspect of a C-section.

21 sounds like a good day for a birthday to me too.

An old wives' tale that proved true with me, is that if you have a lot of heartburn, the baby will have a lot of hair.

When I was pregnant, even plain old oatmeal gave me heartburn. Hugito was a fuzzbutt!

I was the opposite. I didn't have a bit of heartburn but Tyler came out with a TON of hair!

[Cookiebaker]

I told my hubby that if the heartburn/hair tale was true, our baby is gonna look like a hairy MONKEY!!! But as long as it is RED hair then I don't mind.

I've been taking digestive enzymes and since I've been taking them with each and every meal, I don't have any heartburn at all. Before I started them with every meal, I'd have the occational heartburn.

Anna, wouldn't it be cool if our girls had the same birthday????

5 days left!

[Sirrahsim]

oh boy!!! I'm curious, are you delivering in town? I'm so curious about this hospital but haven't had time to take the tour yet!!

5 days left!

Whoa! you are getting so close!!! I am soo excited for you and can't wait to hear your story.

Don't forget to absolutely cherish every wiggle, squirm, hiccup between now and then because all too soon they are gone. I am soo thankful that baby Lydia had a flurry of activity just 15 minutes before the doc broke my water and I was aware that that was the last of the internal movement that I would feel. BUT what is to come is sooooo much better, too, when you can love her on the outside.
