37 weeks

So I know I've been totally MIA again from the blog. I swear I have good intentions but I never seem to get around to doing the posts like I'd like. Anyway, I've had requests to know about the baby bump status so here you go! : )

I'm definitely feeling ready to go this time around. I don't think the 105+ temps have been helping in that department. I'm having a lot of low back pain and all the good stuff that comes at the end. I stopped my 17p injections on the 4th of July (36 weeks) and now am just playing the waiting game. Unfortunately, looks like I might be waiting longer than I'd like. I went to my appt yesterday and am still just 2-2.5 cm like I was at 35 weeks. I was hoping for more seeing as how I was 4cm with Asher at this point, but at least it's something. Asher came a day shy of 38 weeks so I still have time until then, but if he doesn't come by 38 weeks my OB is setting up an induction date for me on the 26th or 27th. So I guess at least there is an end in sight! : ) Either way, I'll have a baby in about 14 days so I think I can handle that.

I'm going to go get these tired prego feet a much-needed pedicure on Friday and I'm just trying to take it easy. ( Although nobody seems to have told my other two kids about that! haha).  I'm pretty much ready I think, but there always seems to be a never-ending to do list regardless.

I haven't really taken any pic of my baby bump in forever but here are a few ( not so flattering actually ) ones I found. : )


                                                                  4th of July (36 weeks)




 My good friend Erin and I at her baby shower ( we're due just 10 days apart). Her daughter and Asher are just a couple of months apart as well. She actually just had her baby on the 9th.




 My "red" themed baby shower some fun girls from church threw for me. It turned out super cute and was lots of fun. I look huge in this picture and particularly love the maternity pants panel showing through, but hey I haven't taken any pictures of myself, so beggars can't be choosers! : )






So that's it for now...We'll see what the next few weeks bring! Hopefully less aches and pains and more sweet babies! : )

    ok, i don't know what you mean about unflattering pics, because you look great in all of them! I feel like i actually look pretty good, but every time someone takes a pic of me, i look like i weigh 500 pounds... (don't believe me, check facebook... or don't)I can't believe how close you are! It makes me that much more excited for our baby. Good luch with everything in the next few weeks!
