Baby Update

So I've made it to a milestone I wasn't sure I'd make it to; 35 weeks. With my last pregnancy I had complications and was put on bed rest and then induced at 35 weeks, so to make it this far with little or no problems is huge! It's such a relief to know that my baby is happy and healthy and that I have a doctor I can go to if I have any questions or concerns and know that she will address them professionally and sincerely! From this point forward however, I am driving blind. I don't know what to expect and I feel a little self conscious about that. I feel like I should know more about what is going to happen, but I really don't. Last time everything was planned out and I was in the care of a hospital when all the surprises took place. This time I'm doing it on my own and all kinds of awful visions are flashing before my eyes; what if I'm at work when my water breaks? Will I be able to drive or will I have to ask someone else? What if I don't know I'm having contractions because I honestly don't remember what they feel like? LOL I know, I'm so over-reacting, but as silly as my concerns sound they are legitimate to me. I've had faith thus far that things were going to work out and they have, so its time to breath a little deeper and take my faith a little further. =D
