Just waiting.....

Everyday I ask this little guy if today is his birthday and everyday he answers back with just keep waiting. I know I am eager and I still have two weeks till the due date but I suppose as a first time pregnant woman and feeling the weight of him daily makes me dying for him to come sooner than later. We had a midwife appointment on Wednesday and all is looking good. The midwife believes that his head is fully engaged, in a good position and I am at least one centimeter dialate!!! For those of you women out there who have had children I think you will know what I am talking about when you here that you are dialating. I understand and know that it doesn't mean that he is coming the very same day but at least that means there is progress in the direction of some time soon delivering. For the time being I definitely can feel him lower and lower and I must say it is a very strange sensation and one that I am ready to have over whenever that glorious day appears.
Jamie just laughs now because when he feels my stomach it is no longer just a stomach he feels but he definitely feels the baby. I am not so sure why he gets such a kick out of it but it sure makes him laugh.
Thanks so much for all of you who have chosen to post your predictions of baby beck's birth. It sure if fun to read and it will be fun to find out who gets the closest to his actual date of arrival. Posted by Picasa

I like the way you put it Megs....wondering every day if today will be his birthday! I never thought of it like that! One of these days it will be! ;-)You are the most beautiful pregnant lady ever!

I'm very happy for you. I was in hard labour for 12 hours and still wasn't one cm. dilated. Hopefully it all goes smoothly for you.

I didn't get to get into the poll so here is my vote:

date: aug 18th
weight: 7 lbs 8 ozs

I think that's all that I needed but if you needed the length then I will guess at that too :o).

Man you sure do look big. Kinda like what I was thinking when Kristal was that close :)

I love your new haircut. You probably got it quite a while ago but I just noticed (well today at the airshow but I forgot to say something). It looks great. You are still glowing. You will look lovely for all of the upcoming photos with the new baby :)

This has become long so I'll say see ya.

Meg, your hair looks great. The rest of you looks great too. Hang in there, just a couple of weeks more. We sure are looking forward to seeing all of you.
