Belly button in or out: In

Happy or moody most of the time: Feeling fairly happy but scared about labor, bringing the baby home and what that's going to look like.  I'm also concerned about breast feeding, going back to work, pumping at work, being over 30 min away from my baby while I'm at work, oh and finding someone to watch the baby when I go back to work.  I'm having huge anxiety about someone that's not me watching my child!
 
Looking forward to: Having 3 week days off this week to rest, and play in the nursery!
