hi b2,
I would say to think of the extra time as YOU time -- time to reflect, do family planning, learn about what you want and what resources are available, etc.Maybe, if you have the time/money, o a trip somewhere you've always wanted to go, but won't be able to do after a baby comes. :)
Or if you can't afford a trip, do a few late nights on the town seeing plays, movies, music concerts/recitals, poetry readings, whatever you love.
Take long drives into the country to search for fresh peaches or pumpkins. Watch the stars. In short, do all the things that will be hard at first with a young child. Read books and eat chocolates.
Take the time to heal yourself and feel strong. :) Next spring isn't really very far away. Sure the clock is ticking, but next Spring is pretty close - it's only a few ticks away! :)
take care and try to enjoy the wait. :)
