According to Malcom....

today is the day I will go into labor. He is so sure that because today is a full moon I will have Jacob. I told him I think he has just jinxed me and I'll be pregnant for another 2 weeks - minimum!!

Since Monday I have had a lot of cramping - like the menstrual cramps and a lot of cramping in my back. I also feel like several times he is pushing down on my pelvic area. It is wiping me out!! But it won't be too long now.

Sorry I haven't been around too much but I'm having to do a lot of resting with my feet elevated. The swelling is getting pretty bad in my feet so I'm trying to take it easy.

But wouldn't it be something if I did go into labor today - we could always say I did because of the full moon.

I wouldn't be disappointed if I did go today but I know babies come when they are ready!!

Lol about his prediction but who knows? So exciting Daphne, he'll be in your arms so soon.

Keep those feet up.

lol....that's funny. There was a full moon about 2 weeks before I had Paige and that was the week that my cramping and BH contractions really started kicking in....lol

Best of luck to you.

malcom is so excited and has been counting down til this day for 2 months now. The cramping is getting more and more but I'm assuming that it's not the real thing.....I can still walk - sort of and I can talk through them. There have only been a few when I couldn't talk and had to really concentrate on breathing. I guess I'll know when the real thing happens - at least I hope!! I've kind of gotten last minute things together but then again I'm not. I know if I'm fully prepared our little man really won't come today.
