I am currently sitting in the hospital bored and excited and waiting. My water is leaking once again, I honestly think it has been leaking for weeks which freaks out my doctor and nurses but luckily I am on antibiotics for my awesome skin so that is happy as it reduces the chances of the baby getting an infection. So yup, we should be having a baby today!!!! December 4th! Yay, for us!
PS I hate IVs! :)
