Still here.
Yes, I am still pregnant. My due date on paper was August 23. I don't know why it becomes so hard to be pregnant after the magic number. Who came up with that number anyway? I think it's determined only to purposely discourage those who go past. I have gone past with all except Jacob, which I was induced. I am tired, achy, all stretched out and sick of the pregnant tummy. But, I have to remind myself that the baby will come when it's ready! Maybe her spirit is saying her last good-bye's to the people she loves so much in the spirit world. That's what I believe. So how can I be too upset that I'm not getting what I want which is to not be pregnant anymore? How could I deprive this little spirit from spending the last few moments with the spirits that she will miss while she's on this earth. So for now, I will continue to be pregnant and hopefully with a happy attitude. Besides, it's Jacob's 6th birthday today. What's not to be happy about? He was so excited when he woke up this morning. I hope that he has a very happy day. :)

I'm sorry to hear you are still pregnant. I hope I don't go over. I'll get out the salad tongs if that happens! Good luck with the delivery. Hopefully it will go quickly and smoothly. Happy Birthday Jacob!
You seem to have a good attitude about it though - which hopefully helps atleast cope with the overly pregnant state you are in. I have never made it that far in pregnancy - my kids don't get the spiritual goodbye time before I have them ripped from the womb...
I understand how upsetting that is. Going over is one thing I cannot handle. Even a week before I'm due I am so done mentally that I'm willing to do just about anything to get that thing out of me and have my body back.
At least you know that little girl can't stay in there forever, and if she does, I'll go exchange that cute baby outfit for some adult clothes for your new one. Good luck!
Hang in there! I've been thinking of you! This is so exciting and I know (I'm sure you do too :) that it is all worth it :)
