38 1/2 weeks-and counting....*updated*

38 weeks

SUMMARY:

How far along: 38 weeks....GET OUT ALREADY!!!

Total weight gain: 30 lbs (Yikes) But been the same weight for 3 weeks in a row! =)

Sleep:  I haven't been able to sleep the last week. I'm so tired, and exhausted. Hopefully its because your going to come EARLY.

Best moment this week:  Shaving my legs....ugh!! 

Food cravings: Nothing!! Its so hard to eat anything anymore, although my friend made some really yummy Tuna Pasta, and some Cafe Rio style salad that I've been craving for!!

Gender: GIRL!!

      {We are still thinking of names : Katelyn, Miriam, Vivienne, Cheyenne, and Megan. Middle names we are debating are: Lou, Ana, and Miriam. Its been so hard to settle on a name for this tiny little baby. I am just waiting to make sure its the perfect name for her, I guess I won't know until I finally meet her. I hope she lets me know!

I remember when I was first married, there was this cute young mom she was waiting to visit with the bishop. She had her tiny baby with her, and she told me that she hadn't been able to pick out a name yet for her baby. She told me that was the reason she was visiting with the bishop. I remember saying, yes, I bet picking out a name would be hard, is this your first baby? She said...No, its my third. But it feels the same as your first.


Back then I didn't realize what she meant, but as I'm having my third tiny baby, I totally know what she means. This is my third baby and I still feel as giddy as if she was my first, or second...Its even more exciting NOW that I have Jocelyn and Bridger because they are SO excited to see the baby too. I'm so lucky to have this baby come to our family. We all love her SO MUCH already.}



Belly Button in or out: IN!!!...YEAH totally not out!?!?

What I'm looking forward to: To holding her in my arms!! I'm ready for her to be outside instead of IN. =) I am nervous about the labor, especially the epidural. After that is in, I think I will be in HEAVEN!!

Differences between #1 & #2: They stripped my membranes last Thursday, which they've never done before with the others. So I was fully planning on having her the fourth of July weekend! But she decided she didn't want to make such a big entrance. SO we wait, we have an induction date set for the 14th of July. I'm a little nervous about getting induced, I've never had it done before and have heard great and horrible things about it. Tomorrow I'm going to talk to my dr about it and get some more information. 

Until next time,
