38 Weeks.


How far Along:  38 weeks, 1 day.
Total Weight Gain/Loss:  -5.
Maternity clothes:  All maternity clothes
Best Moment this week:  I told Tenley this morning that tomorrow she's going to get to go with us to my appointment to check on baby!  I explained how she would hear the heartbeat.  She said "And then baby come out??"  I wish sweet girl.  I said, "No, not yet- but soon.  Tomorrow you'll just hear the baby."  She started crying and said "no...baby come out now please!!"  We have mutual feelings about this.
Movement:  Lots of movements, fewer rolls since baby is running out of room.
Food Craving:  Ice.
What I miss:  Being comfortable.
Sleep:  Never consistent, I'm usually up around 4am for an hour or two.
Symptoms: Still lots of heartburn.

Size of Baby:  Pumpkin!
Doctor's Update: Last Wednesday morning we went to the hospital with consistent contractions and mostly because I wasn't feeling the baby move.  We were monitored for awhile and after knowing that everything was just fine, they checked me.  At my appointment last Tuesday I was 1 cm dilated.  At the hospital on Wednesday I was 3!  So progress was definitely made.  The contractions have stopped though for the most part, so tomorrow at my appointment I'm not sure if there will be much progress.  I'm hoping for some!  We are definitely ready to welcome our sweet little one into our family!
