This is only the second time I've taken belly pics during this pregnancy. So, here I am. 33 1/2 weeks along... with exactly 5 weeks to go till the scheduled c-section. 
Originally I was going to be over 39 weeks along at delivery, which worried me because don't 2nd and 3rd babies tend to come earlier and easier? I'll be 38 1/2 weeks with this current date, and even that makes me a bit nervous. What if the baby decides to come 2 weeks early? I'm glad they are giving him as much time to grow inside me as possible before coming out, but I'm nervous at the thought of suddenly bleeding because the baby is ready to come and my placenta won't let him and-- well.
I have no idea what I'd do with LB if I started bleeding and couldn't wait for Tomek to come home from downtown. I know a few people in this building, but none well enough that they or LB would be comfortable. What's her comfort to my and the baby's well-being right? Well, it's something. We have an AGM for our building this Thursday. Maybe I should ask if anyone would be willing and able to take care of her if something did arise for me. You'd think I would have figured this out already... but there really isn't anyone near us. Oh... well, there's the parents of the husband of my close friend. Apparently the mom is really nice. I've only met her once or twice. They live just up the road though. I just can't imagine having to call an ambulance and them saying that LB can't come along. Ok, I can imagine it. And I have. It's just impossible for me to do nothing but be on pelvic rest all day. As it is, I rarely take LB to the park anymore. Lifting her up the slide and into and out of the swings just isn't a good idea at this stage.
Anyway, here I am in all my covered belly glory. I don't look nearly as bloated as I did with LB. I still have chicken feet, not elephant feet. Hooray!

actually, you look absolutely wonderful!! good on you!
they would have to let LB come if you called an ambulance. but please ask someone, it just gave me worried gut for you, thinking of it!
yeah, they'd have to let lb go with you, but it might be harder on her to deal with that than it would to spend a couple of hours with someone you trust till tomek can pick her up. i dont know. i think id have to know that person well before i left any of my kids with them.
nice belly. amy's is coming along nicely as well. baby bellies are one of my favorite things ever.
You look really good... maybe a call to the ambulance service can allay your fears.
You are looking gorgeous!
You could call Tomek or your in-laws as soon as you call the ambulance and have them meet you and pick up LB at the hospital. .
