39 weeks

How far along? 39 weeks 1 day
Total weight gain/loss: 26 lbs. lost 2 lbs at my apt today
Maternity clothes? I am wearing Jesse's bball shorts and white tshirt pretty much everyday. So lazy to look cute
Sleep: This week my sleep has been pretty up and down. I've been having a lot of contractions especially at night. So it gets my hopes up and I can't sleep.. Also peeing a lot.
Best moment this week: Today's appt. I saw a nurse practitioner because my doc was out of town. I lost my MP and had the "bloody show" on sunday and Monday and then NO labor. It was stressing me out so much. The NP was so great, she told me I was about 75% effaced and 2 1/2-3cm dilated and that baby was -2. I knew baby was because I can feel it low, but it was nice to know all the specifics. She said go to labor and delivery ANY time, not to be afraid to go..because I could just feel a lot of pressure instead of contractions. She also stripped my membranes to see if we could get this thing going. HOPING something happens soon!!!! AND my mom finished the baby quilts. She made one for if its a boy, and one for if its a girl! I am soooooooooo excited! Also, going out with Jesse for the day..getting lunch seeing a movie and just spending time together before our lives change forever. I love him so much. (its been a good week I guess;))
Have you told family and friends: yes
Miss Anything? being able to walk and not waddle, baby is low! Getting out of bed easily. and not having butterflies (I have them all the time, I'm so nervous to meet our little one!)
Movement: had a little scare on Wednesday but really, baby moves a lot!
Food cravings: slurpee!!! but really not much lately just sugar! I have been pretty nauseas.
Anything making you queasy or sick: nothing really specific, my stomach just hurts almost constantly
Symptoms: low back and hip pain, rib and ab pain, nausea, hormonal, contractions, exhaustion, hemorrhoids, middle back pain
Have you started to show yet: yes and I am big
Gender prediction: I hope we find out in the next few days or I'm opening up that envelope...
Labor Signs: 2 1/2-3cm dilated and contractions but then NOTHING is progressing it seems.
Belly Button in or out? out
Wedding rings on or off? On
Happy or Moody most of the time? Happy! but definitely stressed. It plays with your mind thinking that baby will be here at a certain time or in the next 24-48 hours and then nothing happens. I wish I could just not think about it..but its hard to forget this big belly
Looking forward to: HAVING THIS BABY OUT! Meeting this baby. Not sharing my body anymore!!!! Knowing if its a BOY or GIRL!
