In some ways I feel like I've been pregnant with baby #2 forever, and in other ways I cannot believe that we're going to have another kid around here in 2 weeks (or less)! As of right now I'm scheduled to be induced on my due date (Tues, Feb 15th) if baby girl doesn't make her debut before then. A couple weeks ago I was thinking I'd be okay if she decided to hang out a while longer in my belly but I have been so uncomfortable lately that I am SO ready to have this baby.
But for now, we're just trying to enjoy our 1 on 1 time with this kid...
And here's a belly photo at 37 weeks...I swear I look bigger in person and I feel 10x bigger than that. I've decided the size of your belly has nothing to do with comfort (or discomfort) levels because even though I'm measuring smaller than I did with Johnny the pain is a million times worse. Now I know what people are talking about when they say the baby moves into their lungs, under their ribs (sometimes she pushes so hard I swear she's going to crack them), smooshes their organs (mostly the bladder), and sits on their sciatic nerve.
Oh, and don't pay attention to the fact that I'm always wearing one of 2 shirts...I'm kinda running out of clothing options at this point! :)

I am feeling the same way! We have been trying to induce for the last week, and nothing is happening... You are lucky that your doctor will induce you on your due date. Mine won't until I'm a week overdue, if he doesn't come by then. At this point I'm just hoping he comes on or shortly around my due date! (the 9th) Good luck sweetie! *loves*
Court! You look amazing! I am sooooo excited to see little baby #2! I bet you are even more excited. Matt and I decided the best way to overcome nervousness of having a baby is getting so uncomfortable that you will do anything it takes to get the baby out! Yay!
Riley's due date was 2/15 too! I hope for your sake your little girl comes when Riley came (2/10). Hang in there--you look amazing!
Your looking good Court. I know what pain your talking about and it is very uncomfortable! Can't wait to see her!
Hang in there Court! You are on the home stretch. Can't wait to see pictures of her.
You look great! I'm so excited for you guys! Having a girl is sooooooo fun! (course so are boys too) :)
Yay! I am excited for you and your new little girl!! Are you getting over your cold? Let me know if you need babysitting- or just someone to hang out with. :) I am only a phone call away!
P.S- I didn't even notice your shirts. I think you always look cute and stylin'. :)
Almost done! Good luck! Can't wait to see your little girl!
