I'm still here!!
(just incase you were wondering...)
Obviously baby is needing some time to pack on the weight, as I've somehow managed to put on 2kg in two weeks! Insane. :-) Pregnancy can be a wild ride at times!
In all honesty, I haven't been the nicest person to be around the past few days. Feeling oh so impatient, and so uncomfortable. If I could make this baby come in a natural way, I would! But the Lord has been slowly impressing on my heart the need for patience and trusting Him for His perfect timing. The song "All to Jesus I surrender" has been like a healing balm on my heavily pregnant body, and the Psalms have been a real place of refuge. Please pray for me in these last few days... (weeks.... but not months! Definately not months. ;-) ) as Satan is having a hay-day planting doubts and fears into my mind over my ability to birth and bring forth this baby into the world.
I was thinking about Mary, the mother of Jesus, earlier. She was supposedly this pregnant when she was spending her days on the back of a donkey. Poor woman. What a back-ache she must have had! I've had a killer of a backache the past few days, but mine is from poor posture on the couch. She must have been such a gracious woman, and I doubt she complained about it as heavily as I've been complaining about mine. :-( I do feel for her. I wonder what thoughts were going through her mind. I wonder if she was scared about her upcoming birth (it was her first baby!!). Such a courageous woman to give birth in those conditions. I can't wait to talk to her in Heaven and swap birthing stories. ;-) She'll probably wonder what in the world a birthing pool is for. ;-) hehehehe.
Anyway. Enough ramblings. I promise to let you know all the details after the birth is done and dusted. :-) (I know some of you can hardly wait... mauhahaha)
