5 more days until the estimated arrival of our son Baby Augustine

Very excited, nervous and all of thee above! I am scheduled to be induced on Wednesday January 18. Dana wanted him to come on his birthday which is Jan 13 but i tried to tell him the baby has no track of time lol. So unless he comes sooner this will be his arrival date, although being induced it could take until the 19th so his official birthday could be Jan 18 or Jan 19. I'm huge, i can barely walk and i am VERY ready for him to arrive :) Although i must admit i am scared of the unknown part of it all, delivery and stuff. The pain. Etc. Everyone's stories are so different and every womens body handles things in a different way so really there is no way to know exactly what i'm heading into except i know the end result will be worth everything that it takes to get there. These 9 months have gone by pretty fast, this last week has felt like slow motion. Oddly enough. Dana plans to come with me to the hospital as well as my sister the morning of the induction, My mom is going to come around noon time since i have to be there so early (5:15 am wed morning) I haven't been able to sleep the past week because of anticipation and not being able to get comfortable in bed. Everyone tells me sleep will be rare to come by soon enough so i should try while i can , in effort of trying to sleep i think that actually keeps you more awake! Going to actually not try and hopefully that works to get as much sleep as possible the next few days so i can be well rested for whats ahead.
Next post will be after he is born :)
