5 days until I meet my due date! :)

39 WEEKS PREGNANT!

I thought I would never get here.  Its hard to believe actually.  Im soo close to meeting my son, yet SOO far away.  I didnt think these last 2 weeks would feel longer than the entire 9 months! Its hard to be patient when you are this close and all prepared for him to come.  I have been praying that something would start to happen, anything!! I realize that I probably wont go until after my due date since Im a first time mom, but I can HOPE!!

I am still very comfortable, well except for being hot all the time.  Luckily I havent swelled at all except when I walk at night.  But its only my hands and then it goes back to normal after an hour or so.  Ive had an awesome pregnancy and I cant wait for labor... bring it on! (I realize Im saying this now.. haha, we will see how I feel on d-day! :)

Todays appt - I was measuring small last week and the week before.  I always measure on the lower end anyways because I am tall but the past two weeks, it was smaller than normal.  They had me get a sono today to make sure my amnio fluids were okay and that the baby was growing okay.  I asked for lots of prayer and let my worries go.  I felt complete peace at my appt today.  We had the sono, they told us that the baby is perfect and fluids are perfect! His head is really down in my pelvis which is why I started to measure smaller.  I know I have dropped as well these last 2 weeks, so that adds to it.   The sono estimated 7 lbs 4 oz but they can be off as much as 2 lbs either way so who knows how big this baby will be lol.  The midwife guessed 6 lbs 6 oz so Im guessing anywhere in the 6-8 pounds range.. in other words... normal! lol

Dan and I are very excited and trying to enjoy these last few days of it just being us two.  I am so excited to see him as a father.  Our ten year anniversary is coming up next month, its crazy how far we have come.  Little did I know at 15 that I would meet the father of my children.  I couldnt be happier and I love the place that I am at in life.
