Okay, so at the 3 days til due date mark...I'm feeling AWESOME! Not necessarily completely energized...but man am I doing good! I'm not drained...I don't feel like poo at all...and really the little aches and pains don't bug me one bit!
I'm hoping this means labor is coming...
ALSO, the baby is moving lots today and Steven says that means its coming too!
The cramping is nearly non-existant today...so not sure if that's good or what...
It's 92 degrees outside...warmest day yet this year! And I'm sooooo not ready for it! Thankfully, the rest of the weekend will be back down in the low 80's. I would die if I had to be pregnant through the summer! Poor girls! :(

4 days...must be a nice waterbed...
I'm 4 days away from my due date.
Today, I'm feeling the cramping...which is a plus. That means it's even closer! Buuuutttt....this morning's doctor's appt didn't shed ANY light on my situation. She didn't even comment on the size of the baby's head!!! WTF?! Oh well...I guess maybe I should have asked questions...but I'm really shy...
I don't want to go overdue...

Still pregnant...
Yep...still no baby...ugh...
She's moving quite a bit this afternoon which makes it a little more tolerable...but I'm still in pain and still just want to sleep...
I'm half hoping that tomorrow at my doc appt they'll look at the measurements and decide to induce or even give me a c-section! As much as I've been opposed to both, I'm really just VERY done with this whole thing!

Big heads and miserable mommies...
The closer it all gets, the more anxious I become...
But that's to be expected, right?
Yesterday's ultrasound shed nothing more than the fact that my little bug has a big head...and long legs...
We were hoping to get a confirmation of gender...but no such luck. She wouldn't cooperate and was snug-as-a-bug sleeping in her little warm waterbed. I loved seeing that big ole head, plump tummy, and speedy heartbeat...But oh how I wish I could just hold my baby right now!
On that note, I'm miserable. Exhausted. Completely worn down.
Physically, my hips and pelvic bone run my mobility. Some days I'm okay to go for walks...other days I can't hardly turn over in bed without wincing in pain.
Mentally, I have no brain power left. Pregnancy brain is in full affect and I can't help but forget the most minute things in my life anymore.
Emotionally, I'm a wreck. I want to cry...scream...fall apart. But I know I can't. I did a couple days back and its way too hard to pull myself together...so I should just stick with preventative measures...
Somewhere out there is the means to get this labor thing going...but I have no idea what it is....
God, please let nature happen today!

Time..you needn't stand still...
Generally people want time to slow down and stand still for a moment. And I'll probably be one of those re-thinking my current motives...but as of right now, I want time to pass as quickly as possible!
I'm not quite sure I'm totally ready for the birth to actually get here yet...but rather just Monday!
Today's doctors appointment brought smiles to my face.
First off, we were able to strap into the monitor and listen to my baby's heartbeat for a solid 15 minutes...and then we were given the news that we'll be having an ultrasound on Monday afternoon!!! **Insert super excited face**
We haven't had the chance to "see" our little bug for 19 weeks now! I'm really just wanting to know for sure that it is our little Marlee-bug and not our tough little Keque! Certainty is what I'm striving for...
Once that's figured out, I can super-nest and then be more than mentally prepared for all this. Ask anyone around me, I'm fearing the gender more than anything at all! I'm not even fearing the pain or the timing...nothing...just whether or not it's a girl!!!
So, Time...please let Monday get here quickly! The anticipation is going to kill me...
(along with the exhaustion and general feeling of ick...I now completely understand why women start their maternity leave before the baby is here)
