You look great!

A precipitious birth is usually a drama-free birth though...those babies come quick but safe. Have you considered having a homebirth kit onhand incase you have the baby at home? One of my thoughts, having had a quick birth (not as quick as yours though!) is that my midwives won't make it in time...has your doc discussed that possibility?

I wouldn't worry about cutting the cord, tbh. I would have a bag with a bowl (to catch placenta if it comes fast), a bundle of old towels and some recieving blankets...maybe a package of chux pads to put underneath you (you can use later while lactating lol). I imagine that you'd call the doc or an ambulance, so they can bring a cord clamp with them.

I love the things children say. I think it is great your children are getting to interact with this LO before the baby's arrival! Yay! for getting the carseats all ready to go!

I am looking forward to hearing what others have to say about DD and clinginess, as I am about to be going through this myself. My DD has a runny nose and is teething right now, I just hope it gets better the closer we get to the baby coming.

I'm SO sorry your dd has been acting different. That's a huge fear I have and look forward to hearing what all the BTDT moms have to say for how to handle it. I'm glad the appointment went well and meeting the other doctor did too. Hmm...I was a bit shocked that the baby is still so high. By your pic(which you look beautiful btw) I would have thought that it was a bit lower.
