The countdown is on!! Only 12 more days until our little man will join us! We're 37 weeks and scheduled for his c-section on August 13 at 39 weeks. That is unless he decides to surprise us early! Yesterday, I had contractions all day long! Nothing painful but enough not to ignore so I called the doctor. They were pretty much on and off every other hour and would stop if I laid down. With in a minute of getting up though, they would start back up. I never went into labor with Peyton and definitely did not have this many braxton hicks with her either! Doc said to lay down and if they last 2 hours straight, go on in. Well...it's today and still pregnant. Of course, I'd like to leave him in there a little while longer but I am SO ready to get this show on the road!!
How far along? 37 weeks, 4 daysBaby is the size of: a stalk of Swiss chard (not a very fun analogy for this week), aprox 6 1/3 lbs and 19 inches. Latest developments: He's now considered full-term and lungs are likely mature enough to adjust to life outside the womb.
Gender: still a Boy Total weight gain: up 24lbs
Sleep: Let's just say I sleep, but not very comfortably! I role back and forth a million times a night and really just want to sleep flat on my back!
Food cravings: nothing! I have the opposite of cravings.
Happy or Moody most of the time: pretty neutral
Looking forward to: AUGUST 13 can not come fast enough!Our next prenatal visit is Friday, Aug 4. Until next time...
