Had my weekly check-up this morning...
...1.5 cm...80% effaced...baby is engaged!
I have a "half day" at work tomorrow and will probably spend the afternoon fully preparing for "Baby Parker's" arrival. I really don't feel that she will be here before the week of my due date...but then again, I'm not the one in control.
I knew that I would eventually begin to feel a bit guilty about bringing another baby into "Rylie's World". And that guilt is beginning to sink in. I'm sure that what I'm feeling is normal...but it hurts to know that Rylie will have to experience feelings of jealousy. I want to take full advantage of the next two weeks and spoil her like crazy! We will be spending the evenings reading, playing, swimming, and soaking in as much "Rylie time" as we can. I know and trust that she will love her sister and eventually...she will take pride in her big sister role!! I can't wait to see the friendship they form and the bond that will be created. I cherish the simple thought of that! :)
I am sure Rylie will be more than happy to be the "big sister" make sure there is a pressie from baby when she first goes to visit him and she will be fine :D
