39 week update

Today I went in for my 39 week checkup, and I am 2.5-3cm dilated and Dr. W said that Lacie's head is really low!! I knew it, because I am officially VERY uncomfortable and extremely tired. I was going to try and work up until I delivered, but after miserably sitting through meetings and conference calls yesterday, I decided that today (Wednesday) was going to be my last day in the office. I am not sleeping at night, my stomach itches all the time, I feel a lot of pressure when walking and just getting up from sitting is difficult. I was not like this with Cas, so this discomfort is new to me ; )

Now we just wait and see what happens, but at the most we only have a week to go, as Dr. W will induce me next Thursday. I really would like to make it through the weekend, and then go into labor on my own early next week ... of course that is ALL out of my hands!! Wade and I are thrilled to start this next journey in parenthood, and meet sweet Lacie : )

I go back to the doctor on Tuesday morning for one last checkup, so I will post an update shortly thereafter.
