Today is my due date.
I'm 40 weeks pregnant.
This chapter of my life is coming to a close. Crazy to think that in April we found out we were pregnant and now it's drawing to an end.
I went to the doctor this morning in a pretty decent mood. Was told that while my cervix hasn't changed much he is lower, she could feel his head. Doc could never feel Lucas' head.
Since I'm not having any regular contractions or dilating and I'm 40 weeks I'll have to have a c-section which we've set up and I'm packed for. Yep that's right people the Queen of Procrastination packed her bag yesterday.
Tom also set up the playard.

| FYI: The elephant and I have nightly staring contests. I've yet to win one. |
We came home and I ran out to Wal-Mart because I only have two sleepers. I keep forgetting that Lucas was an August baby and we will have to you know keep this one warm. I picked up three sleepers. This should be enough for now. I don't want to buy any more newborn stuff because I feel like I'm going to give birth to a 10lb baby.
Now I've got to clean my house which I'm extremely overwhelmed by and has put me in a pretty foul mood. Part of me says 'Why bother?' because I know when I get home from the hospital it'll be a disaster again and I'll be stuck recleaning.
I guess it'd probably be easier to clean recovering from surgery than it is now since I can barely walk or bend or anything for that matter.
I'd say I'm ready for the hormones to chillax but I know I still have months of these to drive me, and everyone around me, up the wall. At least I won't be alone hah.
