No baby yet, but thanks for thinking of us!
We are getting close to the time. We must visit the doc every 2 weeks, we had infant CPR class already and must begin Lamaze class next month. When I put my hand on her belly, I can feel the baby kicking (did you know a fetus can get hiccups Shocked ). Unfortunately she has a little trouble. Because her belly is so much larger, some muscles and tendons are pushed this way and that out of normal position. So while she was playing with the dog, she pulled a tendon on her inner thigh. Crying or Very sad It is slow to heal, and in the meantime, it is painful for her to stand, sit, lie down, or do anything. I am happy to help her, but I am sure she wishes she didn't need me so much for such little things like clipping her toenails (that she can no longer reach).
Only 2 more months!

yeah, i knew that! originally a hiccup only exists so that a fetus can "practise" breathing in Mom's belly and doesn't suffocate because of the liquid around it Laughing nice idea of mother nature, he Wink but unfortunately we also have it as children/adults which can be sooo nerving...
greets Very Happy

ps: I'm sorry for your wife, must be really exhausting at the moment.. a little dog, heavily pregnant and these pains Shocked hope it's getting better fast!

yeah, Bob's wife must be physically painful! I remember, when I was expecting my daughter, I felt I was so ugly!!! huge belly made me look like an elephant; hard step; flawed face...everything was so different and uncomfortable! during that, I couldn't wear any beautiful clothes but a large gown!

Fortunately, the baby will finally come out!! and by then baby's mom will be released!! Laughing
