Am I the only one 39 weeks and hoping she’ll come late?!

Question

I am 39 weeks today and doesn’t feel like it unless I am in bed (where I can’t seem to find a comfortable position). I am due on the 22nd but I hope she will come around the 27th because my husband gets out of town with our 2.5 year old from the 24th to the 25th and being able to sleep all day for two days without a newborn to take care of sounds so good!! 🤪😁

Answer

I’m similar... I am so excited to meet my little girl.  We’re ready for her at any moment.  But, this is baby #2 for us and I did not forget how exhausting it is to have a newborn.  Lol.  So, for now I’m enjoying sleeping and taking nice relaxing showers.  I’m soaking up all the quality time I can with my son.  We also have some plans coming up I’d love to make it to.  Saturday we’re going to the movies with our friends and their kids and Wednesday is the day I have an appt to register my son for kinder.  I really want to get him in the morning class, so I’m hopeful I can make the appt to get him signed up before the class becomes full.  I’m not due until the 24th, but I’d just like to make it past next Wed.  I also like the idea of how it would feel to know we made it to the due date and to expect her at any moment.  Right now I feel like I have a little more time, but she could still possible come at any moment.  We’ll be thrilled whenever she comes, but I’d love it to be closer to due date or even after.  I feel like I’ll be more mentally prepared:) Plus, I had my son at 41 weeks.. so it’d be what I’m used to:)
