Well I didn't anticipate we would be at 38 weeks so quickly but there was a change in the due date. I guess from having 3 different doctors & having the ultrasounds done it wasn't caught until last week. We are currently at 1 week & 2 days left until our new due date! The feeling that I constantly have these days is butterflies. I go to bed every night wondering "will she come tonight?" Then I wake in the morning to ask myself the same question. The waiting period is hard especially when you are nocturnal. I've never in my life had an issue with sleeping until about the past 2 months. Nobody warned me about that... That's okay though, I have had a few weeks off to enjoy some "me" time. Which was much needed. Feeling anxious about labour as I'm sure that's normal. How bad is the pain? Will it really be as bad as everyone makes it out to be? It's the fear of the unknown.... All worth it in the end to meet our girl.
The baby wasn't quite in the right position as of the doctors appointment yesterday. We have another check-up next week to see where she's at. She is the size of a watermelon right now & don't I know it! I can thankfully say most of my clothes fit up until last week. Thank goodness! She's weighing in at approximately 6.5 lbs & between 19-22 inches long. Funny to look back to around 18 weeks, I thought I had a "big bump" then! I can't wait to see her face for the very first time & hold her. We are ready to meet you sweet girl! Wishing you a safe entrance into this beautiful world.
I don't have a lot of photos but a bathroom selfie will have to do for now:
