I know, I know...every pregnancy/birth is different. Part of me "feels" like this baby (pg #5, baby #3) is going to come a little bit earlier than my first two girls, who were both born at 40+ weeks. My DD's birthday is about a week and a half before my estimated EDD (which I don't really go by anyway so I don't know why I keep thinking that way...just torturing myself I guess) and I keep seeing myself with the baby by that point, too. DH said he kinda thinks this baby might come a littler earlier than the girls, too, but his reasoning was that "we've had two after the "edd" we'll probably have one earlier at some point." And as for me, I can't tell if I really have some sort of intuition about this one or if it's just wishful thinking that I might have a week or two less of this pregnancy (which is kicking my butt!). But whatever it is, it's actually causing me to allow myself to start getting baby stuff out and ready NOW (31ish weeks), which has always been firmly against my rules in the past (I always made myself wait until around 35ish weeks at the earliest to even START thinking about that stuff so that it wouldn't make the wait all that much harder, ya know?) And then I think, my babies have both come right after 40ish weeks and have been about 7 1/2 lbs each so I can't imagine that I make babies that cook less than that or something...
See, just torturing myself by overthinking it...but at least it gives me something to do, right?
And now I feel stupid having even shared my thoughts "out loud" because I've always been determined to remain quiet about such things because I don't want to give myself or others any ideas.
