Yes, 4 weeks from Friday, if not sooner, our 2nd little lady should be here. Mommy is very ready as you can see from her large shape in the picture. At this size, getting comfortable isn't even an option. I'm measuring right on track although my platelet level is continuing to drop. It's called gestational thrombocytopaenia and something that you can't do anything for until delivery so we're just waiting it out. It's very wearing on your body (like pregnancy isn't enough!) as you're extra tired and your immunity is low but thankfully Anna still takes good afternoon naps so mommy gets to rest then too. Most of the time it's just a condition during pregnancy although some women continue to struggle after pregnancy. We'll hope this is just related to being pregnant and once the baby arrives, my levels will get back to normal.
