I'm slowing down. And swelling up. Usually a large glass of water and a nap eases the puffiness, but not today. Proper shoes & socks, sitting for hours at a desk, rationing trips to the water fountain -- these things make it worse. I'm ready to be at home now, fluffing my nest. Three more weeks until that's possible. Unless the baby comes early.
We got to see his little face on ultrasound yesterday. A perfect miniature of Michael -- there's no denying. Their profiles are so similar. Nose, lips, and chin. We couldn't tell the eyes though. Maybe he'll have my eyes? Hopefully at least one feature similar to mine. The male genes on Michael's side are strong, though, with every male child strongly favoring the generation before.
Baby is positioned similar to what I had thought, though slightly more face-up. I've read how face-up labor can be slower and more painful, so flip, Baby, please.
