Infant CPR

So we just came back from our Infant CPR class. We both left feeling well prepared in the case of an emergency, but also left with feelings of anxiety over the thought of actually having to put the learned skills into practice. I'm supposed to be feeling at ease that I have this knowledge, but I really can't say those are the feelings I possess right now! Regardless, we've taken the class and are better prepared than we were 3 hours ago, so that's something!

I guess all we need now is a baby... about 4 weeks away! I must admit, I have this feeling that she is going to make her entrance into this world a little earlier than expected. I know that I can't base anything on a feeling, but I think there is something fun about admitting it and seeing what the outcome is! When I say "early", I really don't feel like it will be weeks early, but I do think I will be within a few days to a week early. I mentioned this to Brant tonight and I think I saw a glimmer of "fear" come over him as he grinned at me. He proceeded to inform me that he had been thinking the same thing. We just need to make it another two weeks, at least! There is an entire house to be packed up, a job to be concluded and a big move to Oregon that must take place first! Not to mention, the baby really does need a few more good weeks of development.

In the meantime, I'm just going day by day, feeling like an enormous incubator and trying to give her the best life has to offer at this point (and taking all the brunt of it for her)! I feel everything I'm supposed to; happy, swollen, tired, emotional, anxious, irritable, excited, scared, and uncomfortable.
Its all coming so fast, and I have no doubt we'll be there before we know it! At least we have the infant CPR down.
