Not a heavy weight champion yet...

Today we had our weekly check-up. Saw the dr yesterday who said everything looked great & that we can give birth any day now. To which I responded, “So can you do it now?” He laughed & said “Well I could but I don’t know about you.” I’m 38 cm & ready to burst. Hurts to move because of all the pressure & weight. They estimated that the baby is currently eight lbs & probably will be about 8 & 1/2 lbs at birth.

Using the hot tub (okayed by the dr for short periods & below 100 degrees) helps the pressure & eases the pains from the contractions. Maybe by doing this every night, the baby will hurry up & get here. That’s what we hope anyway. We’re both VERY anxious to meet this little baby kicking around in me.

Last night my hubby & I watched as the baby made some big movements & think we even felt a limb! Can’t wait to meet this miracle of ours… for more than one reason. Next Tuesday we go back & they do an internal check-up again to see how I’m progressing. We’re hoping that we’ll have the baby before then & will have to cancel the appointment. I told my hubby that at this point I don’t care how long or difficult the labor is that I would LIKE TO BE DONE!!! Can you tell I’m a little frustrated? LOL
