Wait Just a little more please !!!

Today is Tuesday, February 26, 2013and went in for my weekly check up.

Lately, I've been feeling soo much better about the pregnancy. I've been complimented about having a glow several times the last weekend and that's given me such a boost in confidence! :)
I've felt good enough to put a little make up on every here and there, and to dress up nice at least a tad. It's helped me embrace my pregnancy a little.

So today, I'm 38 weeks pregnant and waiting. As I stated in my past posts, I was told my baby girl might come out sooner. Well, today I'm not a bit of dilated and my cervix is a tad thinned. That's all. So by next week, if I'm not dilated, we have to start planning.

I don't want to plan !!!

The Waiting Game

So ever since I had my sonogram and was told I would most likely have this baby earlier on, I have been playing the waiting game. Every contraction I get, I like to think just maybe, that one time will be the contraction that sets me into labor.

But of course, that's just wishful thinking.

I am super anxious to meet her, but at the same time, I'm so tired of being pregnant. :0

Horrible I know :(

I will miss the kicks, and her weird elbows and knees kicking out of my tummy.

I will not miss the heartburn (which has returned with a vengeance), discomfort, insomnia, fatigue and nausea. I'm 36 weeks tomorrow, 9 months. And already, I have been doing the good old wives' tales for this baby to come as I was once told; sooner.

I bought a red raspberry leaf tea which I try to drink daily to tone my uterus. I have my husband massaging me every now and again as I've been told acupressure helps. I eat my spicy foods and try to walk as much as I can.   
But nothing.

I'm starting to believe she will come on her due date.
But fingers crossed !!!!

And in the meantime, here I am, sitting in bed with two capri suns and a fruit cups to keep her little big ol' tummy satisfied as she dances away in my tummy.
