The Final Countdown

Hopefully I am now counting down days instead of weeks...but it's strange that such a huge, life-changing event is imminent, yet we don't know when it will happen!

Nothing new really to report, I'm just trying to do what I can to coax the little one out by walking. It's ridiculous though, I go on an hour long walk and spend the rest of the day hobbeling like an old woman-it is amazing what the final weeks/month of pregnancy can do to your body, even if you stay active the entire time! I cannot imagine what it would be like if I hadn't worked out the entire time, if I had gained even more weight, or if I had a bigger belly to haul around.

I went to the doctor Wednesday, and it looks like I will be needing my appointment scheduled for next Wed (June 3). She did try to get things moving along a bit, and it may have worked since I felt my first ever contractions overnight. Nothing to get excited about, but better than nothing!

I do plan to keep updating this blog with baby pictures after he/she is born, so keep checking back.

Finally, keep Claire in your thoughts as she hits the road this weekend on her bike trip across America! May her group stay safe and dry during their adventure this summer :)
