Oh my, the time is getting very close for Waverly to be here! We had our 37 weeks appointment a few days ago; I am 1 cm dilated, but she hasn't 'dropped' yet. He said that we are right on track for March 4, so I asked what I can do to speed the process... walk. And because it's still winter-like, Chandler and I can be legitimate "mall walkers" without the embarrassment (...Caroline...); in fact, Chandler has developed a very special "walk" for me that involves some pelvic rocking, shall we say. Now that is embarrassing. Instead, I just walk at every opportunity. I even walk in place when I have no where else to go.
Feeling the pressure of not being prepared, Chandler and I spent, literally, a whole day doing some last minute shopping, picking up items that would be immediately necessary and some really cute clothes. We got so many cute things, I have packed three outfits for Waverly's hospital bag; yes, three. And yes, we're vain people, but she will look "fly" as Chandler so likes to say.
I've also washed most of her newborn outfits and sanitized bottles and pacifiers. My goal is to have all of Waverly's things prepared by the end of next week, then spend my last week just cleaning the house. So we'll see how that goes because if Waverly wants to come a week early, I'd probably be okay with that :)
That is SO exciting! I totally didn't realize you were so close!
ReplyDeleteI'd like to see you do some of that pelvic rocking during your mall walk...I'm sure it would be quite entertaining :)
