38 Weeks and NST Test

Baby is the size of a pumpkin! EEK!

How far along? 38 weeks-2 weeks till the due date

Baby's Heart-rate? 135bpm

Total weight gain/loss? I am officially up 30/31 pounds depending on the day. 

Sleep: I actually sleep great! I just need space to stretch out. I sleep through the night most nights and hate having to actually get up...until I notice he/she is on my bladder and I about about to pee myself. 

Best moment this week: At my appointment today dr was 100% sure head was down and I am starting to have my cervix soften and currently am dilated to 1cm!

Movement: Very little movement the past couple days. Today actually I explained to Dr. Brandes that the movement is really decreased and she sent me over to the OB department for a Non Stress Test (NST). Baby didn't move and his/her heartrate didn't go up or down for about 20 minutes. So the nurse had to give me some apple juice, about 10 minutes later baby was moving more and now he/she is going crazy. One thing the nurse did point out was that I was having quite a few mini contractions while I was there. So maybe my body will be able to do this and go into labor on its own :). Here is hoping! 

Food cravings: Nothing spectacular, more random actually. One night I want french fries, the next night (like tonight) I want eggs. 

Belly Button in or out? My belly is growing and now belly button is flat, not out or in.

Wedding rings on or off? Still fitting but some days my finger is a bit swollen. 

What I am looking forward to: Going into labor and finding out if this baby is a BOY or GIRL!
