- How far along? Forty Weeks and Five Days, yep she is still in here and seems quite comfy.
- Baby Size? As big as a Jackfruit
- Total weight gain? 23 lbs total
- Maternity clothes? Still
- Stretch Marks? None
- Best moment this week? When I started having contractions. I really want to experience labor naturally and am doing everything to make her come out on her own. I am just hoping they get more intense and closer together rather than stop.
- Miss anything? Nope
- Food cravings? Still dairy but that's about it.
- Babe Movement? Lots of stretching, I had a non stress test (standard test when you are past due) yesterday and she was moving all over the place. Everything was fine.
- Food aversions? None, loving all food right now.
- Gender? Sophie Rose Velez
- Labor signs? Started having "real" contractions last night. They aren't very close together but they have been consistently happening for the past 12 hours. Woohoo! Doc and I are hoping this is the start of labor otherwise talks of being induced next week are in the works. I really want her to come on her own but I will have to be induced after 41 weeks according to my doc. He says it is not healthy for the babe to be in there much longer.
- Symptoms? Contractions, back pain, and that's about it. Walking and bouncing on my exercise ball trying to force this nugget out.
- Sleep? Sleeping good.
- Belly button in or out? Innie
- Wedding rings on or off? Off
- Happy or moody? Anxious
- Looking forward to? Going into labor naturally (fingers crossed).
