How bad is it that I thought about shoveling today thinking it might send me into labor. I'm so anxious now!

I'm not even nervous anymore, I just want to get this show on the road. I know the closer I get the more anxious Mike gets though.
I am getting nervous about bringing home a baby though I'm very thankful that my dad is here for when we come home.

Um, I'm not sure I've ever said this to you before or not, so I'll say it now:

Just lay down on the dang floor (on your back) and I'll lay across your boobs and just start rolling down...that baby will pop right out!

Becca!

Mel, take a deep breath. Anxious as you are, you need to let that little boy bake a little bit longer. I know it feels like you have been pregnant forever, but he'll be here soon enough. Of course, feel free to me when you go a week past your due date, like I did with Emily!

I'm not even that uncomfortable anymore. I just want to meet this little one.

And you take back any thoughts of being late. I'm so worried he's going to be a true Christmas baby. I do NOT want to go over if only for that reason. I think it's part of why I'm so anxious now. Plus she keeps telling me he's measuring big

I felt the same way with Emily. It felt like I had been pregnant forever, and it wasn't that I was uncomfortable, I just wanted her to be here. Now when I got to 40 weeks, it was hard for me to breathe, and Kyle and his mom were doing all kinds of stuff to try to get me to go into labor, so with all that going on, I was ready for sure. Looking back, when my due date came and went, I was more disappointed than anything, just because I was so ready to see her and hold her. You are right about when he'll be born--being that it's around Christmas.
December is a tough month to be born in--my birthday is 12/14, and Kyle's cousin's son's birthday is 12/27. Everyone is so focused on Christmas, it's hard to really celebrate a birthday. Of course, my close friends and Kyle do a great job of making my birthday special, but you know what I mean. I totally understand your wanting him to come sooner rather than later, and of course, I know you'll do the same with his birthday, no matter when it falls during December, you'll make it special.
Oh, and you know--I used to work with a woman whose birthday was 12/25, and she always had her parties and stuff just after Thanksgiving so that Christmas wouldn't overshadow her birthday, and then her family celebrated her birthday closer to 12/25, if that makes sense. Hopefully, Gabe will not be born on 12/24 or 12/25, so you won't have to worry about it.

Yah Mike's Birthday is 12/3 and I make sure to do something special birthday related. That way he never feels lost in the holiday shuffle. I was really hoping Gabe would share Mike's birthday actually
