So baby girl - I have had contractions since 7 am, lost my plug, and then my water broke. The last two things happened within 10 minutes of each other all while I saved your brother from choking on a piece of cereal. seriously. I was standing in the kitchen, pants off, water dripping down my legs all over the floor as I am beating on your brother's back ... oh boy... life with 2 ;p
Well I cannot wait to meet you today/tonight. The excitement in this house is crazy!!! I love you so much already. truly.

Coincedence?
38th post on our 38 week mark :) I went to the dr, today and told her how sick I have been recently. Really nauseous and even threw up at school today. Had a lot of random contractions and gross stuff on Sunday. I did NOT like feeling contractions for 3 hours to wind up with no baby!
However, today, after my "flu" like symptoms and contraction mid-doppler reading she said she thought I was going into labor :) She's on call tonight if you want to make your debut...hint hint! Anyway, it could be tonight or a week from now but I am so happy that things are starting on their own!
See you soon my sweet sweet baby girl!
MAMA
ps Your dad is running around the house like CRAZY and it is sooooooooo funny :)

Check Up
How far along?: 37 weeks - full term
Weight gain?: 23 lbs
Maternity Clothes: Of course, but I can still fit into a few shirts and hoodies that are not maternity.
Stretch Marks?: Just the same few from my first pregnancy that are underneath my belly button. (I didn't get these until AFTER I had Owen either!)
Sleep?: Ok. But I have been up 3-4 times a night recently to use the bathroom.
Food cravings?: Not really. Anything cold is best.
Belly Button?: WAY out, popped, done-zo, cooked.
What I miss the most? I miss sleeping on my stomach. I also miss walking without severe pain shooting up my pelvis.
What I'm looking forward to?: Meeting you, my little girl!!!! I also can't wait to see your daddy hold you - he wanted you to be a girl so badly :) I reallyyyyyy look forward to watching Owen love on you!
Milestones: Besides the weekly appt and internal exam, I think being full term is a great milestone!
Signs of labor?: Braxton Hicks and that weird feeling that I am literally sitting on you
Dr. Wolf was at the hospital yesterday so we met with the nurse practioner. She was nice but nothing is new. Finally full term and waiting for your arrival!!! Daddy and I had a check at the hospital on Sunday after I thought I was leaking (but 99% sure it was just pee because you kick so hard! I was so sure it was nothing I didnt even grab the hospital bag...I mean..if the hospital bag was packed in the first place!! oops!). Anyway, it was obviously nothing and I was so surprised I was relieved!! As much as I want to meet you - we have so much to get done all of a sudden! Next week would be a great time to come out if you are ready :)
love you!!!

36 weeks
The dr. said I am only 1 cm dilated and though it doesn't seem like much, I have to remember how quickly things can change. I have had SO many Braxton hicks contractions and I feel very very sick at night. I know SOMETHING is happening. Though you can come at any time after Tuesday, if you could wait two more weeks that would be great. Try not to be late though okay? The dr. said she wouldn't let me go for a vbac after 41 weeks so I am feeling an immense amount of pressure to meet you before then. I just want you to be healthy :)
Your daddy and I finalized your first AND middle name last night. We thought we had it a few months ago but changed our minds. I hope you love your name - we do.
Your daddy brought out some of your baby things last night and I can't wait to set them up!! They are so small, so cozy, and I just love them.
You aren't moving very much this week. Your strong kicks (like the one last week that made me JUMP out of my seat and made your dad gasp) are now soft rolls across my belly. Things must be snug in there! The dr. said she could "feel that little noggin" and I am just in awe that this time is coming to an end and that I will be able to kiss that "little noggin" soon!!!!!
I love you, my little bird. Our life is going to so much more blessed with you in it.
xoxoxoxo!
