Maternity Leave

Today I decided that it was time to start my maternity leave. Work was just waiting for me to make the call and since I am due the day after tomorrow, I felt it was close enough. No one can say that I wimped out or didn't try, I am almost 40 weeks pregnant after all. Plus the fact that I am only sleeping 45 min. to an hour at a time, am exhausted, my feet and ankles start to swell if I am on them for more than a couple of hours, really helped in my decision. I just hope that Alex won't decide to stay in the womb for another week or 2. He needs to come out! We do think that he has dropped some more. My belly looks lower and feels fuller at the bottom, so cross your fingers and maybe we will have some exciting news this week.
