One of the girls on the pregnancy.org June 2007 bulletin board had her baby last weekend! She had been on bedrest due to signs of pre-eclampsia and her blood pressure was getting more and more elevated, so her doctor decided it would be best for her to have a c-section sooner rather than later. Her son, Jack Lewis, was about 35 weeks old and weighed 5 lbs, 5 oz. She posted some photos and he looks small but alert, and very adorable!

I know this is going to be happening more and more: me seeing my peers drop off the board periodically and return with wonderful stories and photos! This is all so exciting! Darryl & I are really, really looking forward to William's arrival. In some ways I think this month will go by so slowly, and in other ways it will fly by before we know it! I hope we will be as ready as possible (I don't know one can ever fully know what to expect with a first child).

I think William is back to just floating around my abdomen, instead of being head-down. Yesterday, at times, he seemed to be lying with his back across my stomach and during the night his head seemed to be near my ribs or in my side. It's a little hard for me to tell, still, how he's lying, but I am quite sure he's not ready to be born just yet! (I think Darryl is worried about me going into labour while he's in Florida for 3 days for work... May 21-23 or so).
