39 Weeks (photo to come) May 27, 2010

How far along? 39 Weeks. As of today, I have 5 days until my due date.
Total weight gain: 29 lbs.
How big is baby? Baby is watermelon-sized. Doc says he weighs about 7 1/2 lbs. He needs to hurry up and come out before he gets much bigger! Please?
Sleep? Whatever!
Best moment this week? Selling my Saturn. Yay!
Movement? Always moving around in there! He’s found some sort of nerve and seems to push on it a lot. It hurts!
Food cravings? Nothing out of the ordinary.
Labor signs? Not really. Doc says I haven’t progressed at ALL since last week. I’m 1 centimeter dilated. She said the amniotic sac is bulging through that 1 centimeter hole, and that it’s possible my water will break spontaneously. Let’s hope I’m not in public when that happens!
What I miss: I miss a lot of things right now! Being comfortable in my own skin would be nice.
What I’m looking forward to: Baby’s birthday.
