60 Days Left

I remember when the baby ticker said 215 days. Now we are down to 60 days. Only two months left until I get to meet this little person. My excitement to meet him is growing more and more each day. I’ve been trying to envision what it will feel like to see his face for the first time. What emotions will I feel? My love for him is growing more and more. Feeling him constantly move is such a blessing and it makes me realize that this is going to happen. We are going to go to the hospital and bring a baby home. I am not going to the hospital to have my baby removed and leave with empty arms. I have to remain positive.

This past weekend the crib arrived and it made it all that more real. I can’t wait to finish getting the room together so that it’s already for his arrival. I love this little boy more than words can describe.

I’m not a very patient person but my patience has definitely been tested this past year. I’m sure it will be tested even more during these next 60 days as the anticipation of holding Peanut is driving me crazy!! I cannot wait to finally hold my rainbow baby.

On another note, I’m experiencing a new symptom – my hands are swollen. It’s to the point where I feel like I should take my rings off as they are getting really tight but I don’t want to. I just don’t know how much longer I can keep them on. I have suggested to my husband of possibly just getting a cheap silver band to wear on my ring finger. If I do, I would put my wedding rings, along with my ring made for my angels on a necklace. These rings hold such significance to me and I feel the need to have them with me at all times.

  1. Eeek! 60 days isn't very long! ...but it is the longest part of the pregnancy! I can't wait to finally meet him! :)

    P.S. I've got a cheap silver band that I wore during the last few months of my pregnancies.

    Great idea about the rings - I will be so sad if I have to take mine off too though!

  5. Yay! We are getting close indeed!

    I'd definitely recommend getting a cheap or fake ring to wear - my OB said that he has had patients have to cut their rings off, so I went ahead and took mine off because they were getting tight.
