Josh and Reah

We’re just counting the days! Expected arrival is October 23 but it could extend up to the first week of November. That means, anytime, my belly would pop! In less than a month, I’ll officially be a mom! I am getting more anxious and more excited each day. Every night, I’d ask my husband when would the baby come out.

I’ve been having a hard time walking and getting up each day. I’ve been going to the bathroom to pee more and more. The maternity luggage and my “labor” bag are ready. I’ve already washed all of the baby’s clothes and beddings. We haven’t set up the crib yet because we haven’t purchased a mattress just yet.

I pray that the baby would come out either on the 16th or the 20th. With Oct 16 being our “engagement” anniversary and the 20th, well, is a 20 (our wedding date). But I don’t think I’d give birth two days from now. Maybe next week.

I still report for “work”. Everyday, I still work at home and am glued to the computer more than 8 hours a day. I told my boss that I’d work until I could no longer mange the pain.

So far, I’ve only been feeling pain when I’m lying on the bad. I experience Braxton Hicks (practice contractions) every now and then but I know they’re not the real ones. Everytime I’d pee, I’d wait if the leak won’t stop because it means my water has broken. Everytime I’d take a bath, I’d watch out for blood trickling down my legs. That’s how anxious I am.

Even my mom, Noah and Nav’s Lola Vishi, is excited that she even bought Noah-theme party hats for the hospital guests! Check it out:

Ooooh! Nice! Noah’s Fun Boat is just waiting for NOAH. All animals in! They’re just waiting for you BABY!
