UPDATE: We're NOT 25 Weeks? When The Heck Is Kymani Going To Be Born?

So, for those of you who have been following our minimal updates on Facebook or this blog, you at least know that we are about 25 weeks along with Kymani. Or are we?

Yesterday's doctor appointment showed conflicting info with what we were thinking on Kymani's expected arrival. The initial due date given earlier in the pregnancy  was August 13th. But that may not be when she comes.

She may actually be coming sooner than expected. But, really just a maybe. Huh? I think this baby just wants to throw us for a loop. Her last ultrasound agreed with the August 13 date. At that time, the doctor did say it may change but we would still keep that due date.

Flash forward to yesterday's appointment and I measured at 30 weeks! We are keeping the due date of August 13th, just in case it is still correct. However, if the measurements are instead correct, then Kymani Lyrique Rowell will be coming at least 4 weeks sooner than expected!

Are we ready? Well, since Nova Skye is still a baby, we have plenty of items that will be passed on to Kymani, as well as some we acquired after donating a bunch to pregnant mothers in need. We initially donated most of Nova's smaller stuff because Kymani wasn't expected.

So, we had to gather a bit more newborn stuff again and we're pretty much good to go now. We also already had two car seats and two playpens for Nova. Plus, we already have the double stroller. It's just small random things we have to grab. So, while Kymani was a surprise, it's not going to be that difficult to prepare for her arrival.

Looks like she is going to give us plenty of other surprises as well.

When the heck is Kymani going to be born? We don't know but we are ready for her whether she comes earlier than initially expected, on time with the original date, or even later.

Lesson learned from Kymani and my other 5 kids: the baby will come when and how they feel like it. No use in worrying over the details. It will happen at some point. Just get everything ready, don't stress, and let it happen as it does.
