I have 6 days left. My C section is scheduled for the 22nd of March (this Thursday). Hopefully I'll make it till then. According to my doctor, he thinks I may deliver sooner than that. There’s a feisty child in there making it known that space is limited. At times, I feel like a foot is about to pop out of my mouth. I guess we'll have to wait and see.
Nella, Rich and Vito were here for a week.
They’re heading back up to the great white north Friday. My sister will be arriving Saturday and soon after my mom will also make her way down. So exciting! All the visits from our loved ones is a simple reminder that our big day is nearing. We will no longer be just a family of three! 
I’m physically ready to have this baby. Emotionally, I’m not so sure. I am panicked – a bit – actually – a lot. Many scenarios are going through my head to which I’m having a hard time coming up with solutions.
Scenario #1
I finally fall asleep. Baby wakes up crying for his/her feeding. C decides he wants to get up also. A symphony of ‘waa’ and ‘mami’ is going off in the house.
*****************************
Scenario #2
I am sitting on my chair breastfeeding baby. C is playing and notices baby sucking on my boob. As memories start going through his head, he becomes nostalgic and decides he wants a little nibble too.
*****************************
Scenario #3
I am home alone tending to both my babies when C decides he also wants to be carried around in the baby Bjorn (after all, it was his first.)

WHAT DO I DO?

OH MY GOD hahaha just reading your scenarios make ME a little nervous lol … Honestly Mare I think your best bet is to stay cool calm and collected, don't stress, and most important don't freak out!!! Stay positive! And always smile (even if you feel like taking someone out!!) It’s hard to have a solution to a situation that most likely will happen at some point in some way, but you have to keep it together and go with the flow. It’s been done before and I have all the confidence that you can handle any scenario that crosses your path! Good luck!!! :D
