37 weeks

I can't believe that I am already 37 weeks. We had a doctors appointment yesterday. I am 1 cm dialated. I measure 38 cm. The heartbeat is 139 bpm. Everything else looks great. I am really looking forward to having our son. I will write more later but kinda rushed but wanted to update you.

35 weeks

I made it to 35 weeks. It isn't 36 weeks yet but I really do feel like I have made it really far. I went to the doctor yesterday. They did the strep B test and then checked my cervix. It was closed but the doctor said that the baby's head is down and everything else looks good. I have now gained 29 pounds and my uterus measures 36 in from top to bottom. He says that everything else looks good. I am now on weekly appointments and they are going to check me every week. The thing that I'm worried about is hemorrhoids. I have gotten them easily from the time of high school and I know that during birth I will get them. I ask for prayer that I wont get them as bad and they would heal quickly. I only have 3 and a half more days of work. I am so thankful cause I have so much to do around the house to clean and get ready for my little one. It has been really fun to go through this journey and now it is almost over and I'm about to start a new one with a child. I am worried about being a good mom but I know that this has been my calling to have children, so I know that my heavenly father will be with me every step of the way. I know I'm going to mess up big, lots of times, but He will be here to lift me back up to try again. I'm so thankful for Ben cause he is going to help me lots and we both are ready to start this new journey of our lives. Well that is about it. I would like to put up a picture but I will have to upload it later. Thank you for all of your prayer and I would love for you all to continue to pray.

Rain

Oh my Lord! I am sitting here at work watching the rain fall down. I don't think I have seen it rain so hard in forever. I love the rain but this is crazy!
