37 weeks
Ladies and gentleman:
WE HAVE A FULL TERM BABY!!!!!
It seems like only yesterday, I was POAS.
And now I am 37 weeks pregnant, with 21 days to go(if he decides to come on time!)
I am so grateful, so happy, so ………….teary eyed!
What’s IN:
Diarrhea: Yes, after months of constipation, it seems that in the last few days, all of that has changed. And it comes suddenly. Not cool in the middle of Wal-Mart.
Laziness: Yesterday, I spent the ENTIRE day on the couch, napping and watching DVR’d episodes of CSI. It was a good day.
Half hearted job searching: I’m browsing. Just not applying yet.
Obsessing about Labor and Delivery: When will it start??????? When will I be put out of my misery?????How can I hurry this process along???
That being said: Researching natural remedies to induce labor. I ‘ve found few that I am trying. But I REFUSE to try Castor Oil. I’ve seen what that does, and in light of the first IN on this list, I will NOT be indulging in this one.
What’s OUT:
Nesting: Whatever. I did that last month. The hospital bag is packed. Baby’s bag is packed, clothes are washed, nursery is complete, guest rooms/bathrooms are clean.
Fitting in most of my maternity clothes: Yes, my belly sticks out so much that most of my shirts are too small. So I wear the same 5 shirts over and over again. Along with 3 pair of pants. Yep.
Worrying: I’ve over worrying about getting a job and worrying about money. For now. There is just nothing else I can do for now, so why worry?
Cheesecake Factory: I have had a piece of cheesecake after every dr’s appointment for the last 2 months. Ummmmmmmmmmm……………………..I think I’ve tried them all except the new Red Velvet Cheesecake.
Wait, maybe this one needs to be taken off the list……….
Anyway, it’s a pretty day today. I think I’ll go and hang out in Barnes and Noble and then take a looooooong walk.
Maybe something will “get going”!
37 WEEKS?!?! TIME IS FLYING!!!
You sound like you’re in good place – Baby Dub will be here soon, I can’t wait to see him!
🙂
Yay for 37 weeks!
You deserve to be a little lazy…enjoy it! And so happy to hear that worrying is OUT!
I cannot believe you are full term already! AMAZING! It seems like only yesterday to me, too, that you posted your pregnancy announcement. I’m so excited for you, and I am sure you are getting anxious to meet that little one of yours!!!!
That is fantastic! Hooray for a full term baby!
You have just made me realize how far along I am. I am 30 weeks, so I am not that far behind you!
37 weeks is amazing! You’re almost there! And the good news is, my prenatal instructor told me that loose bowels are a sign that your body is getting ready for labour. Got to get that stuff out before all the pushing begins! Gross, but true!
