38 week update

Well I thought today might have been the day but alas, it is not. My fluid levels are still low but good. I am at a 7 instead of 8 (still forgetting what measurement this is in). She is still kickin around and taking up a lot of space so the doc said she can finish her cooking and come on her own time. That is until next Sunday (Jan 8 – her due date), if she doesn’t come then I will be induced the following week sometime. We are going to talk about that at my next appt. (next Friday). So let me show you a belly pic and give you some of the stats. By the way I feel HUGE, really I don’t think it is possible to get any bigger. It is officially hard for me to do anything now.

How Far Along: 38 weeks, 5 days and we didn’t measure at this appt. It was so crazy at the doc this morning I think we forgot.
Heart Beat: 156bpm, same as last time.
Weight gain: 27 pounds - I gained 2 pounds!!! I am reaching that 30 mark….didn’t think I would but I am getting up there. Although she said that my 2 lbs that I gained pretty much all went to my swelling. My legs, ankles and feet are just not the same. I went to get a pedicure this week to be prepared…..gotta have pretty toes, hello! And the lady made a comment like OMG “your feet so big, big, you must have baby soon”. Sorry if that was offensive to some with the way that I said it but I am just repeating what she told me.
Movement: Yep, still feeling her move and have hiccups.
Sleep: Miserable now. My hips hurt and I just can’t get comfortable
Symptoms: Just the swelling and the hurting hips
Cravings: Nothing really
Best moment this week: Having her nursery almost complete. Jenna and my momma came over for 2 nights and we got it pretty much done. There are just a couple things that I have to do this weekend. It looks SO PRETTY! I can’t wait to post pics and show you.
