Only 10 more weeks

So we have 10 weeks until Oliver is going to be here...January 4th! I am really excited, but kind of scared. I assume this is normal for all "first time" parents. It is just kind of bizarre for me to be thinking about really bringing home a baby. And am I going to know what to do or how to be a mom. I'm reading this book right now about breastfeeding because I plan on nursing, and I'm nervous about it as well. I was going to breastfeed with the triplets and thought that was no big deal...what the heck was wrong with me? Now that I'm thinking about all that goes into it...it will be a task just with one baby. Oliver is really starting to move around more and kick a lot more often. I can actually feel him rolling or something in there, and it is really hard to explain. When he kicks or has little moves it feels like a muscle twitch, but when he rolls it literally feels like I'm being taken over by some kind of alien...haha! I really am starting to get more excited the more I think about meeting him. I know his brothers and sister are watching out for him to make sure he gets here safe..and that is comforting to me.
So...not too far to go. I'll be 28 weeks tomorrow and he will be born at 37ish weeks. Well I guess that means we have more like 9 weeks...okay then. Well I hope my axiety lessens a little before he is here and a lot when he arrives! Oh boy!
