Update: 38+ weeks

Baby update:  Everything is still good.  Dr B measured his head again and said he was just under 10 cm this time and even if that wasn't accurate that he felt I should still be fine.  So I am holding out hope and trying not to worry anymore.  He estimated his weight at 6 1/2 lbs this time (a little less that last time) so maybe u/s technology isn't that great.  I think he'll be between 7 and 8 lbs but hoping he's not over that.  Dilated to 2 cm and 75% effaced so not a lot of progress but enough to not feel worried.  I was still chicken enough on size though to ask about being induced and Dr B said we could go that route.  So I will actually be going in on September 30th to be induced but not until 8 pm...sounds like a horrible time as I imagine that will mean labor all night.  I have my flight of fancy to walk my heart out on Monday and Tuesday to maybe go on my own before then but I doubt that will be the case.  

Cravings:  Sweets.  Fried food.  Nothing really good for me.  Maybe it's more indulgence than craving.

Weight Gain:  about 20 lbs up from pre-pregnancy weight.  

Movement / Symptoms:  He still moves a bit mostly just before bedtime.  He likes to stick his feet into my right side and ribs.  I also feel him occasionally where it seems he's trying to stretch out from head to toe.  I don't have insomnia but now I don't sleep great due to discomfort.  I think I've had a few actual though mild contractions but nothing consistent.  If I walk a bit it usually tightens everything up but then goes away once I relax for a little while.  My feet have also been swelling the last few days.

Day to Day:   Trying to clean house and organize.  Finishing packing a hospital bag and getting "big sister" gifts together.  I definitely have not accomplished everything I wanted to but it will do and work out.  Hoping to fit in a haircut today or tomorrow.   

Baby Prep:  Pretty much planning on just doing this after he's hear now haha Ooops.  I'm a stinker.  We have all the physical needs met but the nursery decorating can wait a bit.

The Girls:  Love my girls.  They are so good to each other and such good playmates, usually.  They have such fun imaginations lately and conversations I love.  Kendall was eating dinner with my parents the other night and kept saying "two grandmas and two grandpas" and I thought she was just saying she had two of each but she giggled and pointed and we realized she was crossing her eyes and seeing/making two of each.  Cracked us all up, silly girl. 

Looking forward to:  Just looking forward to little boy being here and coming home with him now.  Hoping it all goes smoothly. 

Next visit:  September 30th is set for the day.
