12-9-2008 - 39 weeks/ & feelin fine

My mood while writing this blog: ready

---

Yay, week 39! Woo Hoo! We're almost to the finish line girls! Well, lets see here, I can't remember what I wrote last but here's whats been going on; I still cant get my latest pics to upload :( so darn it, no recent photos and I'm such a balloon too! Well, eventually. I still love my belly. No stretch marks (thank you God). I feel pretty good pretty much all of the time except of course while bending over (putting on my tennies, ugh) to do anything and when rolling over at night and getting up out of bed, it's really uncomfortable for a minute but once I walk around for a minute and loosen up, I'm good to go. I've been walking like 2 hours a day still (about 4-6 miles) and love that except yesterday I got to go on a hot date with my hubby instead, that was fun. We went out to a nice place on the River and ate 4 different kinds of dessert with (decaf for me) coffee out on the patio overlooking the river. Lemon huckleberry cheesecake, Cocount Cake, Vanilla Ice cream and MMMM mmmmm key lime tart, MMmmmmm! then we stashed our leftovers under a bush and walked around the mall, bought candy and sporting gear, picked up our leftover dessert, went to Barnes and Noble, went home and crashed (not counting the numerous times getting up to pee) until my usual 2:30/3am when inevitably I wake up and go "ahhhh Man, not again" and lay there wishing I was asleep.
This time I finally listened to my hypnobirthing CD for the first time, kinda late I know but....... anyways, Im gonna practice relaxation stuff everyday til the baby now. I am not anxious but am now ready for her to come. I dont want her head getting any bigger than nec. (its already 97the percantile last we checked) so anytime now is fine with me. I went to the Dr yest and for the 3rd time declined to be "checked" (shudder) as it really hurt last time and I dont see the point, it doesnt tell you anything anyways, some ppl progress like a turtle and some like a rabbit so??? whats the point? Anyways, she said that at my next appt since it will be like 2 days before my due date she'll want to check me because we might need to talk about options if it doesnt look like shes coming down as I have the narrow pelvis / big baby head issue to consider. She said if I dont want her to check me I dont have to let her but it also might stimulate my cervix and get something goin as well. Hmmm. I guess I'll probably let her check me but maybe if I can get enough "hubby dates" in the next week that'll get'r going instead??? So....... here we go, last week of pregnancy maybe???

LoL That was a good post to read, here here! Lucky lady with your non-stretch marks.. I was GREAT all the way up until 71/2 months then I swear outta NOWHERE POOF, there they were, like a thousand scratch marks down both sides of my belly... I was DEVISTATED. I can only Pray that they will dramatically disappear once this whole thing is over... I hear ya on just starting to listen to my 'meditationals' and all that good stuff right now, it's relaxing, I guessssss! Hope it helps when the time comes though,lol.
