...That is the question.
Whether tis nobler in the womb to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous kicks.
I have be going back and forth between "helping" the birth of our baby by doing some extreme physical activity (climbing a huge flight of stairs, climbing to the Y, or doing some sprint runs on the track) or by taking some primrose oil (as suggested by my friend, Angie) and just patiently waiting for mother nature to do her work.
Aside from the fact that it would probably be safer and healthier for my baby to stay in the womb until she "feels like" coming, there are two factors that have helped me decide to wait:
1) I am taking a Spring class for my Masters which officially ends the first week of June, so the extra time will allow me to write the final paper and attend class - when I have my baby, I want to live life uninterrupted for at least 2 weeks so I can get to know her, feel the Spirit of Heaven she is bringing to our home, and get used to having a newborn again;
2) I am still working part-time and I plan on working until May 30th...1 day before my due date, we'll see if Sophie allows me to bring home some extra bacon!
As a side note, I just want to say how EXCITED I am to be a Mom at home, again: I miss it so much...I guess the past 3 months were a good reminder of WHAT MATTERS MOST to me.

It is getting so close! I hope Sophie hangs on a little longer for you to finish up your things. Good luck!
Hang in there! It will be over soon enough. Good luck in the next few weeks. We will be watching your blog for Sophie's arrival!
This is so exciting!
I wish you the best of luck with the birth. xx
