40 Weeks & baby is staying put!

Had my 40 week/due date appointment. Baby is staying put! I am still just as dilated as I was at 32 weeks when I had my scare... baby is showing NO signs of wanting to go anywhere :) Silly baby. Plan: We are going to do an induction. I wanted Friday, but it will be Monday at the earliest. I will hear from the scheduler either tonight or tomorrow!

37 week update

I am 37 weeks pregnant! I love every moment of it, I really do.

At 37 weeks pregnant, I am feeling quite large. I am about 45" around... and have put on 30 pounds. I have developed stretchmarks on my belly in the past few weeks-- but I am not complaining. Every pregnancy quirk is an amazing blessing from God for me in this lifetime. My face also has some splotches on it-- I guess the "mask" of pregnancy. It looks like I've smeared self-tanner on myself in random places! I am still having trouble walking, particularly in the morning, but it is not getting worse so I can manage.

Liam still loves hanging out by my rib cage. He snuggles his little tooshie way up high, right below my chest. Sometimes when I am eating I just can not breathe and I have to stand up to let gravity push him back down a bit!

It looks like we are waiting for him to decide when to get here; my OB wants me to really try labor and see how it progresses. No c-section for us, for now.

I love you, sweet baby Liam!!!
