Cleared for landing

Today marks 36 weeks in this pregnancy, which means now if labour starts, we can go to the birth center. Midwives aren't allowed to deliver before 36 weeks since the chance of respiratory issues are high before that point. I have become increasingly uncomfortable the last few days and tonight I can't find any way to sit that doesn't hurt. My upper and lower back, my ribs, my liver are all complaining. I know there are four weeks until the due date, but I'm really hoping it isn't that long. He's less work in than out, but I'm starting to feel ready for his arrival.

Enough complaining. Here is a belly shot.
