39 weeks # 2

Baby is huge... that is all I have to say.
7 days till my due date

Symptoms:
Hurt
Bathroom breaks: all the time.
Sleeping: has been better than past. I actually slept through the night, without having to get up, last night.

Movement:
Ben and I had fun just watching my belly move all over.

Cravings:
Still haven't had my Boba tea yet.
Sonic strawberry limeades

Thoughts:
It has been hard to wait. I have been having contraction all the time and I think is this it? It is so hard to wait on God's timing. I want him here. Ben keeps thinking that every time I call him, I'm going to tell him that my water broke or I need him to come home. He is probably just as excited as me. Although this time, he seems a lot more calm this time around! My thoughts need to be this way with Jesus' coming. I need to be anxious and excited to go home with Him.

Dr. Appointment:
Blood Pressure: 110/62
Weight: +19 lbs pre pregnancy
Heart Rate: Started at 170 and dr listened to make sure it went down. Jumped from 110 to 140.
Measure: 38 cm. He dropped so much

Dr checked me and there was no progress.
She said that baby couldn't be any lower without starting to come out.
Dr. is hoping he comes this week cause we all know he is going to be a big baby!on
Last Thursday, I was having contractions every 5 minutes for over 5 hours and then they were every 3 minutes for 3 hours and got more painful. They didn't stop when I repositioned or walked. Ben and I went to triage to get checked out. When I got there they checked me and I hadn't progressed but I was really soft. They monitored me and had me walk for 2 hours. When I came back, they checked me again and I hadn't progressed so I went home. I thought this baby was going to come early but I am thinking that I am going to have to be induced and expect a record baby...lol! I was a little discouraged but I really am trying to trust and rely on God for all I need.
