It’s Baby Month!
AND
We are officially in the single digits until we meet our squishy little babe!
We had a doctor appointment on Tuesday and my doctor told us I am still not quite 2 cm dilated but my cervix is ready!
She told us that as long as baby and I continue to stay healthy we can go past my due date or she is also okay with inducing on my due date.
We are supposed to make our decision by my next appointment on Tuesday.
The thought of knowing we can for sure meet our baby in 9 days (unless babe comes on their own sooner) is so exciting.
Does anyone have experience getting induced? It makes me nervous but I also don’t want to go past my due date! I mean isn’t 10 months long enough haha.
How Far Along:
38 Weeks & 6 Days
How Big is Baby:
Well 38 weeks is technically the size of a Pumpkin and 39 weeks is the size of a Watermelon which I am closer to at this point!
Approximately 19.61 – 19.96 inches and 6.8 – 7.25 pounds!
Movement:
Such a wiggly little nugget!
Jaime took a video earlier this week and it’s just so crazy to watch how far the babe pushes out!
Feeling:
Still feel exhausted!
Send all the naps my way.
Ideally I would prefer to be in bed by 8 pm every night… and usually we are haha.
I have been getting a decent amount of contractions, just nothing consistent enough to time yet.
Nursery:
Just waiting on the babe at this point so we can order the rug and put their name above the crib!
I will plan to share baby’s full nursery once it is complete!
Working Out:
Just walking!
We had some really beautiful weather this past couple days so it was really nice to get out and get some fresh air.
I went to the gym with Jaime yesterday and walked at speed 3 on the treadmill and felt so proud.
It’s amazing how much can change in 10 months ha.
I am really excited to be able to get back to working out like normal!
It’s actually so exciting to be able to walk again without being in pain. My pulled pelvic muscle is FINALLY healed. I am so glad it healed because I really can’t imagine dealing with that pain and also dealing with how difficult it is to just move at this point haha.
Sleep:
Sleeping really well still!
I think the new bed helps!
I am usually up 2x a night for the bathroom but have no issues falling back asleep!
The countdown is officially on and we are so excited to be a family of 3!
Fingers crossed this is my last pregnancy update!
Hopefully my next post is a baby announcement!
Love,
Nicole B
