39 Weeks

Nothing has changed on the baby front. Baby Stewart is still happy and healthy in there, as we start week 39 on Monday.

At my next appointment on Friday, I'll get an ultrasound and a weight estimate of Baby Stewart - who will undoubtedly be gigantic. We will also set an induction date for a few days past my due date, just in case I don't go into labor on my own.

How am I feeling? Well, I'd say just this week, that I am sleepy all of the time and get out of breath at a drop of the hat. But, Jason and my mom have been wonderful, picking up my slack and pampering me. I am so thankful. This pic was taken by Jason today on our back porch.

Also, all I have to say is round ligament pains. Hey wow. Insert your own cuss word here to describe them. I read somewhere that they should be called "someone ripping your insides out with a knife" instead of the innocent sounding "round ligament pains."

After seeing a movie with Jason today (Night at the Museum 2 - it was great), I was like, ok, I am officially ready for this baby to get here. I have had an uneventful, wonderful pregnancy, and I feel so blessed to only be complaining about those pesky round ligament pains.

You are better than me. At 39 weeks EXACTLY with both of mine I scheduled that enduction. Of course Barrett wanted to wait for 39 weeks plus 1 day.
