Week 39

I was really hoping I wouldn't have to do make this post. I was hoping baby would be here. It's the end of week 39. Baby's still baking. Due date is tomorrow. WooHoo! I've made it! YooHoo--Baby--It's time to come!!

Definitely very anxious and ready for the baby to be here. I've pretty much checked everything off my to do list..plus some. I'm sitting around waiting patiently, and not so patiently. Bags are packed, ready to go, packed some more, repacked. House is cleaned, made messy again, cleaned again, messy again, cleaned some more. I even washed the windows! Yikes. He'd better come soon. You never know what might get done next. We've been going on a lot of walks which has been great and I've been bouncing on my ball which is supposedly supposed to help.

Last Sunday night we did go into the hospital. I thought my water had broke, so we made our way to Mercy, got checked in, they put me in the labor and delivery room, got me all changed, hooked me up to the machines. Come to find out, my water didn't break. Just the fluid around my mucus plug. Bummer. So, we were at the hospital for a few hours, but then were sent home. That made me REALLY anxious for the real thing. The nurse said I was dilated to 2 cm and starting to efface, so that was exciting. Fast forward to Wednesday with my appointment with the doctor. He said "no progress". What!?! He said I wasn't dilated anymore, which can happen supposedly. But, my appointment Wednesday went well. Up 2 pounds. Measuring good. Heart sounded good. The doctor MADE SURE I scheduled my appointment for next week. Grr. Hoping baby comes before then!

Here's 39 week pregnant belly!
