Marking My Calendars

Time does fly even if one is waiting for something or someone. One minute the day you’ve been waiting for seems ages then all too suddenly it’s over. I think such is also the case when one is pregnant. I can’t believe that I am now in my third trimester and my pregnancy days would soon be over. Well I still have about 2 months to go before giving birth but I am sure the days would pas by like a flash.

My baby’s kicks and movements are getting stronger and more frequent now especially at night. My husband and I think that she is already playing inside. Also according to my OB, the earliest date I can give birth is August 22 though that is unlikely to happen. From her calculations, the most likely date for me to give birth is September 5. So I have put a large circle on September 5 on my calendar. Knowing myself, I would probably be a little paranoid when that day arrives. I plan to take a leave on August 28 but my doctor advised me not to take a maternity leave too soon as being active would help to ease the pain of labor.

Anyway, me, my husband and my whole family is eagerly anticipating the arrival of our princess. My husband and I are excited and ready to take on the challenges of parenthood. With God’s help, we hope to be the best parents for our child.
