Am I Ready?

Good morning, all :)

Last night was my last hospital class - whew! So, the total baby education that I've received through Proctor includes a newborn class, epidural class (my least favorite), 4 Lamaze classes, and a breastfeeding class. Since I've taken all the classes that they offer (That apply to me) I was joking to Ian last night that I'm officially ready to have this baby :) haha... not quite - but it's a nice thought! And the classes were helpful!

So on the ticker we are on the 20 day countdown - I can hardly believe it! I'm so excited though - there were ladies at the class yesterday who had due dates in late August and even October, and now going through pregnancy as long as I have, I just could not wait that long!!!

I have a feeling this baby will be a little late, but we'll see! At the sonogram baby was measuring just a little small, and then my belly is also measuring a little small (35 weeks when I was at 37) but the doctor also said that plus/minus 3 inches was perfectly normal and that I should still pack my bag because baby could go at any time :) (Even though I'm not dilated or anything)

Anyhow - my gut feeling - baby will be born on July 3rd - so we'll see!!

We should start a baby pool just for fun! (Or email Dad if you want him to get something going with real money... haha) - but, leave me a comment or email me with the date you think baby will get here and I'll record them :) Hey - it gives me something to do while I'm waiting!! My guess is July 3rd - what's yours? And boy or girl? I think a boy - which most likely means I'm wrong and it will be a girl :)

Have a great day, everyone!
Love
Laura

Looks like Mary and I agree on the sex, but are about a week apart on the date. But we did manage to synchronize our reading time!!
