I have been having contractions for a week now.
There are just little baby ones.
My midwife said that I could still possibly go until 40 weeks, but we'll see.
This is going to sound weird considering my current situation, but for most of this pregnancy I have been terrified of having two children. Seriously. How am I supposed to be perky and chipper enough to take care of my energetic toddler by day and still be a night walking baby feeder by night? Is my little girl going to hate her baby brother because he is stealing the attention of her mom and dad? How am I going to be able to take care of Maycee, the nursery hater, and little baby at church by myself when Stephen has to be teaching a bunch of 12 & 13 year old boys? The list of questions goes for quite a while, but I will spare you.
This past week I have had a different feeling about this situation. I know that Heavenly Father is going to help me. I really feel at peace. I am ready. I am okay with being pregnant for 3 more weeks, but if it happens now I will make it. The past 37 weeks have prepared me.
Also as a perk, I have been cleaning like crazy. Except the bathrooms. Stephen loves me and helped that situation. Minus the bathtub in the master bath. I hate cleaning that thing.
I now feel better that I have everything ready for our little baby boy. The second one definitely makes me feel more confident in my abilities. I've done this. Atleast this time I know that I have to have a blanket to bring the baby home in.
Good thing Maycee was born in August.
