Well I am now 38 Weeks plus a couple days pregnant and I am D.O.N.E.! Back when we were trying so desperately to get pregnant I would hear or see pregnant woman complaining near the end about how miserable they were. How they were sore or tired and just didn't wanna be pregnant anymore and it would annoy me to no end. I would be angry that they were complaining about being pregnant, something I couldn't do! But not anymore. NOW I get it! I am freaking MISERABLE. My entire body aches, especially when Lucas moves. Oh god when he moves it hurts sooo bad. It makes my back spasm every single time. I can't sleep more than 1 or 2 hour stretches at night without having to get up to pee or just readust in the bed. I am exhausted. I fully intend to go to my doctor appointment today and BEG to be induced next week. And when I say beg, I mean shamelessly beg. Tears and all if need be to get what I want. Okay, so enough of the bad and on to the good! We are ready! We have his room all set except for hanging a few decorations.. We picked up the glider half price at BRU on Black Friday, which was our last big thing we needed. We have drawers and closets full of clothes and diapers. Car seat is installed and inspected. We are READY for him!! Here is what What to Expect has to say about this coming week:
Coming down to the wire, your baby weighs around seven to eight pounds and measures 19 to 21 inches. Those measurements won't change much from now on, but his brain is still growing at an astonishing rate, a pace that will continue for the first three years of life. His pink skin has now turned whitish (even babies who'll eventually have darker skin appear whitish now — they haven't yet developed pigment). His head may have dropped into your pelvis by now, which makes your breathing easier but walking harder.
I will update later today after my appointment with how I make out with my begging! LOL :)
