Question for those that know

[sharya]

I'm pretty sure the baby dropped sometime in the last 12 hours or so.

So, tell me girls, is it normal for it to feel as if the kid could fall right out of me everytime I stand up?

And how long after YOUR kid dropped did you go into labour? (I know they say it could be up to 4 weeks before for a first pregnancy, but I want other people's input

I can't even believe you are having your baby so soon! I wish for belly pictures! Friends only! No face required! You owe it to us since we can't walk up to you and touch your belly the way every stranger you meet currently does.

Which is something I imagine you hate.

There are a few belly pictures. Just a few. I am seriously thinking of posting them. I am a beached whale, and it's now kinda funny :P

Re: the strangers touching my belly, it's so freaky! The first time it happened was in slow motion, I saw this hand reach out and this big smiling face approach, and my eyes got big and I'm sure my face showed horror... the patting and rubbing began and I just looked down in shock watching it happen. The person was completely oblivious to my reaction.

I hope you do post them. I love baby belly pics.

Honestly, it will largely have to do with how much time I have after I go on mat leave, and before I have the baby!

[joeymichaels]

Yeah, everyone wants to touch the baby before it comes out. It is a bizarre instinct.

Heh, and then there's me... the baby-o-phobe!

Hopefully that will change imminently :P

Hmm... I'm thinking like loving my cat? I know everyone is always all, "no no, it's WAY MORE" but I'll have to see it to believe it :P
