Is It Time?

Technically I still have one month left...well, that's just technically. Physically, I feel like I will have the baby any moment now. It's very true that every pregnancy gets harder...so why do women ever have more than 3 kids? First pregnancy my thoughts were "this is easy..I could do this a couple of times.." Second pregnancy my thoughts were "Oh..this is what women were talking about..oh..that hurts." Third pregnancy and of course a lot older, my thoughts are "Are you crazy? What are you doing? My body never did this before! Never again!" And as I'm writing this, little junior just kicked me hard...can he read my mind? Yes, I have to call him Jr. because we still don't have a name yet.
This last trimester has been a worried one...first the baby's heart beat dips low and so I am having ultrasounds and non-stress tests every week at the labor and delivery dept. But his stats have improved and been almost perfect for the last 3 tests, but then my blood pressure went to 70-something over 40 something and then they were a little "concerned" about me. But yesterday the Dr. gave us both a good report and said I'm at a "4" now...(women, explain that to the men if you want.) So it could really be anytime or 3 weeks. I vote for 1 more week!!
