I was watching a documentary on television last night called "in the womb." They talked about all sorts of things that happen to a fetus between conception and birth and showed 4D ultrasounds in real time and computer generated fetoscopy. It was wild to see it and I actually learned a thing or two that I didn't know before.

Anyway.. "full term" is anywhere from 38 to 42 weeks - even though pregnancy is 40 weeks - because the baby can come anywhere from two weeks early to two weeks late (although my doctor induces after a week). So I realized that I could possibly go into labor in as early as 3 weeks! When did it get to be so soon? Then I woke up and noticed that today is October 1st which means that this is my last month of working until the baby is several months old. It's so strange how pregnancy can seem to take so long, but then the end sneaks up on you out of no where.

I'm packing my bag for the hospital today. Well, sort of. I'm going to throw a few things in there each week. I was going to wait a couple of weeks to start doing that, but apparently I am running out of time.
