Ok so I'll be 39 weeks on Monday. Here is the update. :)
I am carrying super low but I am not terribly uncomfortable and haven't had the swelling in the legs, etc. yet. Praise God!!
I am measuring only 36 weeks (because this little guy has dropped) and actually lost a pound this past week. My midwife told me that my babe is done cookin though, and any weight at this point will just go onto me- so no worries with the weight thing! I've only gained between 20-22 pounds so this little dude has been pretty good to me!
I am dilated only to 1 cm and am not totally thinned out yet, but getting closer. But she had to "maneuver around the baby's head" to check me today at my appointment, so he's in a good place down there!
I am getting a massage on Sunday afternoon with hopes to induce this labor and get the contractions a bit more consistent. THEN, Monday morning I am going into the midwives again to get re-checked and get things movin a bit. Not sure if anyone knows what "stripping the membranes" means, but I sure do. My OB did that to me when I was prego with Ellie and I went into active labor 8-12 hours later!! My midwife said she will "do that" on Monday morning when she checks me. Ahhhh!
Soooo, it could be sometime next week that this baby comes!
We are excited to meet this precious bundle. Please be praying!!!
