38 Weeks With Baby D #2

 Well, I'm almost to my magical date!  I can taste it and I just keep praying we make it:)  Next Tuesday can't come fast enough.  It makes me sad though because I just want to be enjoying every last second of this pregnancy in case it's my last one and each day that I get closer I get more and more anxious that it's going to happen too soon.  I can tell you that there is quite a difference in uncomfortableness in these last two weeks.  My upper back almost constantly aches (chiropractor on Monday!) and it's almost impossible to find a position to sit in for longer than two minutes without having to switch positions.  Did I already say how thankful I am that I'm not working?  Yep, pretty sure I've said it almost every post, but I am.  Laying down on my sides on the couch is about the only relief I can get and standing for the smallest amount of time is just blah!  I function hour by hour and look forward to when Dan gets home because then I can relax a bit.  He's like my white knight in shining armour because by the evening my body is just done functioning properly.  Baby boy is still moving around.  I am now feeling more pressure and think he is slowly moving further downward.  I wonder if this will be my last picture?  Every day Dan and I talk about how could this be the day or are we in this for another 2-3 weeks?  We'll see...only God knows this little guy's birthday.  Is it weird that I have this hope that he's born on an even numbered day?  I have no idea why and I think I just have way too much on my mind and those are the types of things that come to my head?  Yes, this is what keeps me up in the middle of the night when I can't go back to sleep after waking to go to the bathroom.  I never had this "last month" pregnancy insomnia with Svea because I didn't have to go through the last month:)
 Here's what I look like front on.  It was a "puffy face" picture that I just couldn't handle right now:)  Lovely pregnancy face!
