Mama does not believe in Astrology but before clocks they went by the moon phases.(farmers still do) So with that being said I’m doing the same with your birth. Your gran- gran and my grandmother said that back in there day a lot of babies are born on a full moon. That got your mother who is a research to start searching. I’ve found out that in some case that is true. The next full moon is August 16th which is Saturday. Now the thing is that with little boys you come after the full moon or a new moon. So the next new moon is Aug 30th! I’m hoping you come on the 18th but knowing that you are D’s son you will have mommy contracting until the end of August or early September! Just don’t get too big while your in there! I have a low tolerates for pain.
Any who I got a call from the dr yesterday and to my surprise my charts still say that Dr. J still has me on bed rest. Since she is out this week I want know if or when I get to go back to work! I’m not really worried about it either. I was taken off bed rest by the NP and like I said I really don’t like her. But guess what I get to see her tomorrow. YEAH!!!! So it looks like the one thing that I am looking forward to is to see if I’m dilated any more. I better be at least 2cm by now with all of this contractions. I have them every day now some more then others. But still it’s every day and if it wasn’t for them I think I would still have a pretty good last trimester. I still believe that is it the best out of the other two.

contractions for hours Baby Love,
Okay I’m getting to the point where I WANT YOU OUT! I’m sick of having contractions for hours and then bam nothing. My body is tired and it feels like I have the flu when they starts up. They had me in tears for the first time Saturday and they were coming a lot on yesterday. I tried going back to work and it's was not happening. I had 7 yes 7 contraction in like 1 1/2 hours! I did not want them to see me like that so I left after only two hours of work. So I guess I can agree with the dr and stay at home at least until next week. Like my grand mother said you are kicking mama’s butt! I’m so ready for you to come. I let D do that thing that he claims to put me in labor! Nothing happen… It was a pressure point foot massage. So I guess by this weekend it's on to plan B. And if that doesn't work I also have a plan C. YOU WILL COME OUT OF ME! O yeah and for you other Prego’s out there I read that sex doesn’t work.(they are right)
The Nursery is not done yet! We are missing parts and that was for both pieces. Can you say aggravated! I mean the bedding and stuff arrives today and the room is not finish yet! I guess we can go to home depot and see if they have them if not both pieces will have to go back. Thank the Lord that he has a beautiful bassinet! Dr appt. is Friday which I'm not looking forward to because my dr won't be there. So I get to see the NP and I really don't care for here. I just hope I dilated some more. Because my mind is going left and I need to get this party started! When I go to the bathroom I do feel more pressure. So I guess you dropped so more but to me it doesn't look like it. Plus with all these contraction they have to do something!
One Love…
FYI I tried to put new picture up but it says they are to big and at this point and time I don't have the mind frame to play with this thing!

Daddy's little solider Baby love,
I love you soooo much and so does your daddy. He has been kissing you a bunch and is in this mode that I only read that mothers go through. He misses you so much and is soooooooo anxious to see and hold you. You should here the stories he tells me about when he finally get to meet you. Like yesterday at the doctor office he was saying how he is going to give me yes I said it give me our skin on skin bounding moment. Then he is going to follow you to the measuring bed and while they clean you up he is going to tell YOU not me what a good job you did. And how proud he is of you coming on out of there and be brave about the circumcision because you’re a warrior! Every time you hear him call your name, say kiddo , daddy’s little solider, or noa noa you just go crazy. In his world it’s all about you kid. I just hope it stays that way with midnight feedings!!! I will say that you guys have a wonderful bond. I love that but I don’t love the fact of all that crazy talk about him sending me into labor today. Plus he has been telling people he is tired! Even though he is not tired as me he has been holding his part down!(Now I just got to get him to finish that dresser) I love you black boy..... I told him I’m in nesting mode and once he goes and get the crib in less than an hour we have to set it up. I’m like go go go NURSERY! I started late doing this for three reason: The doctor said my due date was in SEPTEMBER(mid September at that), We were planning on moving, and two of my baby shower gifts where the crib and dressers. So I waited and waited and I kept saying I need to get these things. Plus D kept ltelling me to stop buying stuff and that our family and friends are getting these things at the shower. Now I not the one to rely on people but this time I did.(I submit ya'll) Not to say it was right or wrong because at the end the ones that were suppose to come through did!
I must say that last night was tough but I made it though. With all of the symptoms your suppose to be having at this time I have the bare minimum. I am dilated, I do have contraction, I get tired quick, I do go to the bathroom a lot, I have back pain, I do cry, I have mood swings and swelling here and there. But that's it! I’m not constipated, I don’t have headaches, my appetite is about the same, no more leg cramps, no hemorrhoids, will you get the idea. I just pray a lot and ask for God’s grace and I can see that he has.
Well in my eyes I have about three more weeks being pregnant and at the end of it all I’m going to miss it. Now I’ve already look in to a 5year birth control plan of no kids. So with that said no more babies no time soon! But you are my first my little man and I hope you come within those three weeks healthy and strong! Well Baby love be STRONG and COURAGOUS!!! LOVE MAMA…
One Love…

FREE @ LAST BAby LOVe,
Free at last free at last thank God o mighty I’m free at last. Well we went to the doctor’s today and like I said I’m still 1cm. They did give me a week worth of meds to stop the contracts but I’m not going to take them. Unless they get really bad! Baby love your heart rate was 156 and D came in right when we finish listening to it. He was disappointed! Man they were pack in there. Due to the hurricane that we never got on Tuesday, they had cancel all of there appointments so they were a lot of Prego’s in there. Good news is we are both doing fine, I lost four pounds(on bed rest and eating everything. Now if I would have know that all it take I would have done that the whole pregnancy), and I’m off bed rest. I’m only going back to work part time. I’m like I have three more weeks and I’m not going to over due it.
The crib will be here tomorrow and guess what I got your bedding !!! YEAH I got it the sport theme 13 piece for only 70 bucks. CAN YOU SAY WHAT A DEAL. I was going to get one from Wal-Mart but your daddy didn’t like it and it was a 4 piece for 55 dollars. I also got you those cute shelves hanging things and a lamp. I put back the clothes basket because I had shop too much today and I still need to get the breast pump! I’m going back and forward about which one should I get but I know I need to buy one soon.
Now on to your Father…. He is tripping! Talking about he knows how to make me going into labor and that your coming tomorrow. Now we have to keep you in there at least one more week or the end of this month works fine with me. I have a schedule to keep. Plus we have to get the nursery up and going. Your Gran gran and Nana sure did come through for me while I was on bed rest. They got all the last minute stuff I needed to get and still asking me about a diaper bag. I still need that and Papaw and Cheriad got us the bath tub, diaper pail, and other odds and in! I'm telling you when God shows up he show out. And sweetie I know he AIN’T through with us yet!!! Well I guess I’ll try to take a nap my friend Fallon is stopping by in any hour or two…
Not to say it was right or wrong because at the end the ones that were suppose to come through did!
