39 Weeks!!!

My doctor's appointment went well yesterday. I'm officially 2-3 cm and 50% effaced. So we're making some progress. Little Man is still just as active and must be pretty cozy where he's at! I gained another 2 lbs, so I've officially passed my weight gain with Addisyn - but just by 1 lb! I think we can live with that!! My doctor gave me a deadline as to how many days past my due date they will allow me to go, so we set up a tentative induction on the 26th, but are hoping he comes before that.
Yesterday was not the best of days for me. I reached that point in the pregnancy when you feel as if it will never end - obviously the day way will come, but it still seems so far away! And it doesn't help when everyone you know asks, are you still pregnant?! It takes so much for me not to come back with, no, I had my baby and am just fat now. And the crazy thing is the people who are asking such a dumb question are all women who've had babies - so obviously they know how you feel those last few days/weeks! I was so frustrated leaving my appointment because I'm so ready to have him now, but I don't want to be induced, and am so tired of being so big - so I did what every emotional pregnant chic does, cry to your mom! And she must of felt real bad for me because I ended up with a delivery from Edible Arrangements...yummy!!

So today I'm trying to more positive and enjoy however many days are left of this pregnancy. I've been having contractions like crazy since early this morning, but after my nap they've seemed to come to a stop yet again! Maybe things will kick into gear over night??
Here is hopefully what will be the last of belly pics - and it seems I'm still growing!
