39 Weeks 3 Days.......waiting...waiting.....waiting!


HELLO HUUUUUGGGGGGGGEEEE Belly....my maternity clothes no longer fit right...well the tops don't. OK that's a lie......My tank tops are NOT maternity and have held up until recently. Now my belly sticks out. My legit maternity tops fit......well most do.
I am due in 4 days. I am still in denial that I will soon be in labor. Will my water break? Will I just have contractions? Will NOTHING happen and I need to be induced? Will my blood pressure be high again at my next appt and they will send me right to Labor and Delivery???? So much unknown! I have been pretty productive lately but I definitely wouldn't say I'm nesting. I have been going to the gym every day....ok well, every other day, and swimming. I get to swim with all the retired OLD people who have TONS of advice for me, and VERY strong opinions! I had a PBK credit I used to buy the Beaba baby cooking thingy.......I have organized a few shelves and done light housework. I still make dinner every night and make Ryan's lunch for him. He works so hard, it's the least I can do. I have gotten to watch a few of his wrestling matches which in 5 years I NEVER was able to do since I worked 2 jobs. I actually teared up watching him coach the other day.....he is just so good to his kids, it is a glimpse of what he will be like as a father and it amazes me. Just the way the kids come off the mat after winning or losing, his touch on their head, and the words he says to each kid....I never know what he says to them but he takes the time to say something to every single one of them every single match. Proud is the only word I can think of......he makes me proud. Those kids are very lucky to have a coach like him, and I can tell that their parents know that.
I bought our beach badges today, they are cheaper if you buy them in the winter, and I also had my eyebrows waxed, and did some work from home for my sub. I have to confess I watched some youtube videos on inducing labor from home and while nobody was here tried a few.....boy that must have been a sight. Anyone who knows me knows I can't dance, but when alone.......watch out! I did some hip moving dances, and some pressure point massages that were recommended. I also pretended I was a hula dancer........again, not a pretty sight! Tomorrow is Friday and this weekend is Ryan's FIRST weekend without a THIRD job! This will be the first weekend in YEARS that he is off BOTH days and not for a specific reason! He totally deserves it!

I'm exhausted just reading about what you DIDN'T do.
