Happy One Year Anniversary of my Baby Due Date

Today is exactly one year since I was "due" with my baby boy (who I did not yet know was a baby boy). I remember the anxious excited feelings, the nervousness, being unable to eat/sleep/pee properly, sore ribs, nursery ready to go, bag packed, long brisk walks with a fleece jacked barely stretching all the way over my enormous belly, trying EVERYTHING to bring the baby faster, feeling like pregnancy would never end. After my two LONG hospital visits October 31 (due to what turned out to be a UTI) and November 1 (due to the car accident), I was ready to meet the little person inside of me and to be able to lay down without having my organs crushed. Eight days after my due date, on November 25, I was admitted to be induced, and about 10.5 hours later, just 7 minutes after midnight on November 26, my perfect little baby arrived. So happy due day to me - I hope that next time you're not just another meaningless day of waiting.
