And Boy am I DONE.
At least i feel that way right now. I had a really good past few days but last night i just started feeling awful and still as of now, I just feel like the end is very near (at least thats what im hoping) I have been really sick all morning, achy, and just feeling miserable...if i was having regular contractions i would say im def in labor...but im only missing the contraction part which is a rather big one.
My stomach is so sick and sore so i cant imagine this will last too much longer. Saturday we went dwn to st. george to help my mom move to her new house and after i told nick i REALLY wanted to eat some Olive Garden..so we got there and sat down and i started to notice my contractions got very regular and close together so i turned on my contraction timer on my phone and started timing them just to get an idea of how far and long they were. After about a dozen that were really starting to hurt I was getting a little worried that I really might be going into labor, they were 2 and 3 min apart and lasting about 30 sec to a min.....Nick started to notice when i would stop eating and be in a little pain without trying to bring attention to us i just kept eating and timing until we had finished. It was funny to see nick start to freak out a little because we were 45 min from home and he didnt want me to be having a baby in the car! By the time it had been a good hour with them coming like that I looked at him and said "ya i think we should probably go now" he looked at me and said "WHAT" I said just get the check and lets head home just in case they dont stop.
The whole way home they continued and then once we got home and I laid dwn they had started to space out and then by the time i was ready to sleep they where pretty far apart.
As much as I know its a little bit easier with him on the inside, im just ready to get the next chapter started and for me to have a body that feels good again!
I keep just hoping this will be the week but again I know its not up to me and Im just wanting him to come when he is ready and not trying to make him come out...so i will just play his waiting game until he realizes that he would have so much more room if he just came out!
My belly is as big as it could possibly get now this past week he has for sure dropped. I have to try to hold my belly up so that its easier to breathe and i can take a little of the presure off of it as well.
Im praying the time is near and that we will soon see our little boy, we cant wait!!
here are my 36 and 37 weeks pictures!
