39.5 Weeks and Counting

Well, I'm down to just three days before the "official" due date for Baby.  Due dates (for me at least!) are rather depressing times.  They arrive, and then they get passed, and nothing happens.  Sometimes for quite a long time.  So I'm not holding my breath that anything will be different this time around.

But I did decide that I should do a belly shot.  I usually hate any pictures of me huge and pregnant, but I figured that I should have at least one picture from my five pregnancies to show that I really was! =)

So, we never find out the gender of our babies ahead of time.  I just think it's more fun that way!  But I do have my strong suspicions about who this baby will be.  I've been wrong (several times) before, so I guess my "suspicions" aren't necessarily credible! =)  But after having two of each, I have definitely noticed some trends with each.  If you think you know, I'd be curious as to what you think! =)

I think we finally have names picked out as well (but we don't share those either!).  A couple weeks before the due date is definitely an improvement to some of the babies (like Justin) who's name was settled on while in the hospital shower, roughly 45 minutes before he actually came out!  I've decided to never let it get that close again! =)

So now we're just playing the Waiting Game.  It could go on for some time.  Thankfully, Matt's parents will be arriving in just 2 days, so that will be a great distraction.

And then we'll see when Baby actually decides to arrive.  The official due date is Friday, 14 October (that's still Thursday for all you US friends!).  Anyone have a better guess as to when Baby will actually choose to arrive???
