That's right! Alex is getting so big and so is Mommy!! I feel like a house!
Here is a recent picture (and I love that my belly is COMPLETELY hidden!):
Due date is Oct. 27th...but because of Alex's rough birth (c/s 2 weeks before due date, breech, cord around neck 3 times...not breathing, etc.), they do not want me to go past the 21st. This little boy is still very free-floating and they are afraid that my pelvis is just a funny shape causing him (and Alex) not to be able to "engage" -- so we are hoping by next Friday, Belly Boy will be all lined up and ready to go...but if not, he's coming out via c-section on the 21st. They are hoping that I don't go into labor naturally (at least as long as he has not engaged) again prior to the c/s because of the possibility of the cord coming out first with him so free-floating.
I'm a bucket full of stress. The whole time, I thought I was going to be a strong candidate for a VBAC.
