D-Day

Happy due date baby Wiegratz! I had my 40 week appointment yesterday morning and everything is still going well. Blood pressure, weight, temp and all that jazz are good. Baby’s heart rate was going strong at 150. I have made some improvement in the dilation department & I feel like things might be "progressing", but it's hard to know. We made a 41 week appointment for next week, but let’s hope I don’t make it there. My doctor doesn’t think I’ll make it to the point where I’ll have to be induced. Music to my ears, but of course you can never be 100% sure. The waiting game continues, my friends. 

I’ve been having a hard time staying focused at work, but I still have a lot to wrap up. I’m finally starting to feel somewhat in control, but can you ever really feel prepared to take 12 weeks off? I don’t think so.  My coworkers threw me a “Good Luck, Erin!” party this week, which was very nice. One of my coworkers kept snapping random photos of me serving cake. I wanted to tell her to get out of my face, but I smiled ;). I think everyone assumed it was a goodbye party because today I've had no less than 12 people ask me why I'm still here.

Other than that, it’s evening walks & home cooked dinners with just the two of us.

Dave took a picture of me "nesting" last night. Too bad right afterwards I nearly collapsed from a leg cramp. I'm a mess.  

Cheers to 40 weeks of pregnancy down & hopefully a baby before next week!
