Well, the day has come. I started my maternity leave today at 3:15pm. It feels really good. I'm really looking forward to sleeping in tomorrow morning. But I have so many things on my list of things to do...I still need to iron and hang the curtains in Eliana's room, I need to put up wall decorations, I need to get some groceries to have on hand when she comes, do some laundry, etc. At least I have the time now to do all those things. I'm really looking forward to it. Oh, and resting is definitely on the agenda! REST REST REST
In case you haven't heard, I am scheduled to be induced on the 15th. After my doctor's appointment yesterday I think they decided I was too small to carry a baby past term. They don't want her to get too big and have complications with delivery. So unless she decides to come on her own before next Thursday, I know she will be here by then - that's within the week! Also, it doesn't seem like my body's going to naturally go into labor on it's own by then anyway, so it's safe to say that the 15th will most likely be her birth day. Of course, there is a full moon coming on Sunday the 11th, so we'll see how powerful that moon really is. :-)
