39 Weeks!

   

            I am now 39 weeks.  Am I even close to going into labor.  ha ha no at all.  I am not dilated at all, i have had no contractions.  Its like my body is no getting the memo.  Although I measure at 35 weeks instead of 39 weeks and when we did our ultra sound our baby is kinda on the smaller side.  The doctor said he could have some kind of growth spurt the last few weeks so hopefully he grew a little.  I am ready to be done though, I can't sleep at all, can't bend over and i just feel huge.  Its just time i think but our little guy has other plans i guess.  I even went on a hick the other day up the mountain behind our house.  Did that help put me into labor.  nope.  :( I was hoping he would come before Christmas because Matt's two brothers and their wives are coming down and they don't get to come down that often so i was hoping they could meet him.  I guess there is still time but i just don't think he is coming   We did schedule and induction date for the 2nd of January   That sounds like it is so far away to me but in reality its only a week from Wednesday.  So he will deffinitly be here then if he isn't already.  I have our nursery set up and it turned out so cute.  I haven't taken any pictures yet but I will get around to it.

36 Weeks

     
             We have a little less then 4 weeks till our due date!! I am really starting to feel very pregnant.  We went to our 36 week appointment and everything went really well.  We did an ultrasound to see how he was doing and I was kind of excited to see him!  We have not done one since I was 18 weeks, so it has been a while.  I was curious to see if his head was down or not and it is, thank goodness.  I was worried he was going to be breach but everything was fine.  The doctor did say that he was a little small, he is healthy but he won't be very big when he is born.  He said we will be lucky if he reaches 7 pounds.  We knew he was small but i didn't realize that he would still be small, i thought maybe he would have caught up but i guess not.  So I want to try to keep him there as long as I can.  I kinda wanted to go a week early or so just because I am ready to meet our little guy but also I am ready to be done being pregnant.  Don't get me wrong, it has been so much fun feeling and watching him move and getting ready for him to get here but now I am ready for him to be here.  We just had a baby shower and my mom and mother in-law did such a great job throwing it.  We got a lot of great stuff and now i feel like if he came now we would have everything he would need.  I just worry that I am not going to have something or I am going to realize, crap I should have already had that.  I feel like my stomach is starting grow significantly bigger every day.  Everyone says oh your not that big, but oh yes i am big.  I can't bend over hardly, and i feel like my stomach just gets heavier and heavier every day, but its so worth it.  I really feel so blessed to be parents soon.
