Home Stretch (week 39)


Well...I am still preggo :) I guessed my date wrong...so we are holding out for Nick's now. Things are good though - with my time off I have cleaned our house top to bottom and packed for the hospital. The car is ready to go and Nick and I finished our Newborn Care classes...so we really just need little man now :) Just can't wait to meet him...the suspense is killing me!

I am doing a lot of walking, eating spicy foods and anything else that can start labor. I have been getting more consistent contractions and HOPE this means I am dilating. Other than that, I am still feeling good. Pretty tired towards the end of the day, but sleeping is getting harder and harder.

Baby boy is just getting bigger (over 7 pounds and 20 inches on average) and waiting to say hello. He is still moving around a lot and pushing on his mom :)

We see the doctor on Tuesday afternoon for a checkup and to schedule the inducing - and then we just wait to see if he comes on his own. Hopefully we will have some good news...that I am dilating and effaced! Never thought I would want those things...haha :)

Love,
The Bales
