38 weeks

38 weeks! 


2 weeks until due date! 

Total weight gain is 26 pounds

I feel great! I probably have an hour or so a day that I don't particularly feel wonderful, but other than that I feel healthy and happy :)

We had our 38 week appointment on Thursday. The doctor was feeling to make sure baby is still head down and I was in the middle of a contraction (that I couldn't feel) so he had to wait. Futch is still in the same position, ready to be birthed, very low and head down. Then the doctor tried to feel baby's limbs and I had another contraction so he stopped trying to feel around. He seemed confused that I couldn't feel my contractions but said it's a good thing I'm having them because it's getting my body ready for when delivery time comes. Which apparently is not any time soon :)

Brendan's one birthday request was for Futcher to wait to come so they didn't have to share a birthday. (Although I think secretly Bren wanted him to come that day)

My clothes are getting tighter! Picking out outfits that aren't yoga pants and Bren's T-shirts is getting tough. I just need to get through the next 2 weeks at work. Maybe longer since I plan to try and work even past 40 weeks until Futch comes out. 

On Wednesday my wedding rings were extremely painful to take off, so Brendan did what any good husband would do and took me to buy a fake one. And I love it. But I also can't wait to have my real rings back on. 

We are ready ready ready! I unpacked and repacked the hospital bags today... I'm not sure what else we need to do but I feel like I've done everything to prepare for this kid!

We were told to go see a movie together since it will be awhile before we get to do that again. We saw Captain Phillips tonight and loved it. Go see it.
