Full Term

I feel like it's time for a baby update:)  I am currently 37 weeks.  I made it full term and man do I feel full term!!!  My baby itself is measuring LARGE.  His head is in the 75% and his body is in the 40%, in other words he is going to be an orange on a toothpick!!!!!  Am I concerned about birthing a head that is in the 75th percentile....? YES!!!!!!! Holy cow, how is that going to work out, it just doesn't seem to be adding up to me.

Since finding that out, I have measured, large, small, right on...In other words, who knows when I'm going to go!  My mom has officially purchased a plane ticket for my due date and 10 days after, I'm really praying that I can go at least while she's here or possibly before.  I actually decided that it would be epic to have my baby on the 11th of October.  That would make his birthday 10-11-12.  Pretty cool birthday, huh?

Today I had an appointment and the doctor's newest orders are to eat ice cream every night! At first I thought she was kidding but then I realized she was being totally serious because I had somehow managed to lose a pound this last week.  Probably not the best thing to do since he gained approximately a pound all by himself.

Well that's the update:)  One minute I can't wait to hold him in my arms, the next I am panicking that I am inevitably going to be a mom any day, and the next he is moving so much that I feel like he is the hulk and is going to burst out of me and I am just praying that I will survive the next few weeks.  All in all, I'm pregnant...such is life and I'm loving it:)
