I always envisioned a delivery that started naturally when Baby decided to get things a-going. Now that the doctors are ready to set an induction day, I am a little hesitant. I know it isn't a huge deal; it just is not the way I thought it would play out.
I’m still hoping that Baby will come on his/her own accord over the next few days before we get to the induction point. But, I think I am at peace knowing that it will all go the way it is supposed to.
I was talking to my cousin, Staci, today. She pointed out that our babies (were due 2 days apart) will be 3 weeks apart. Crazy, huh?
Well, I suppose I’ll wrap it up so I can spend some quality time with my fur-child while he is still the only baby.
How far along? 41 Weeks
How big is baby? Big. I can see it’s little tush moving around right now!
Maternity clothes? Obviously.
Sleep: Falling asleep is easy. Getting very crampy in the middle of the night. Still waking up frequently for bathroom!
Best moment this week: Sorry WLTX, but leaving work today was the best feeling ever. I've been very lucky to work with a supportive group, but wrapping things up and heading out felt wonderful.
Movement: LOTS
Food cravings: None really
Food Aversions: Still not a fan of peppers
Gender: Can’t wait to find out!!
Pregnancy Symptoms: I had a weird nerve thing in my lower back/upper butt (if indeed “upper butt” is a body part). It has subsided today, thanks goodness!
Belly Button in or out? In.
What I miss: Wearing cute clothes and shoes? I also miss: my wedding rings, climbing in and out of the car with ease, picking up my dog…
What I am looking forward to: Meeting baby soon!
Upcoming appointments/events: Birth!
Weekly Wisdom: My friend Shanna encouraged me to let go of any “plans” and just go with what Doctors say is best for baby. She knows her stuff folks!
Milestones: We've had two post-due date ultrasounds. I know these aren’t “milestones” but they have been so special! Baby has some big lips and was moving them around today. I think it has my nose ;)
Bump Picture:Sorry, I haven’t taken one today and I’m not re-dressing to do so! A cute picture of Baby G will have to suffice!
eeek! What a cutie! This baby needs to hurry :-) But yeah, I totally agree with Shanna that you can't really have a plan...just go with the flow! Love you, mean it.
