Fully Full Term

I'm pretty much here, tomorrow is my due date, and as everyone and their mother loves to remind me- most first baby's are late. Blah, blah, blah- they obviously don't have 8+lbs of baby bruising their ribs. I am well aware of the statistics, but it doesn't change the fact that I am SO ready to have this baby. As I type Peapod has the hiccups, and it's so cute, and I just wonder what those hiccups look like outside the womb, you know?

Anyway, this will give you the run down:

How far along? 39 weeks, 40 as of 12:01am tonight.
Total weight gain/loss: 20lbs. yeah! Love the 3rd trimester, I keep eating, and just not gaining. I do however throw up from time to time again, yucky.
Stretch marks? sigh
Sleep: sleep? I pretty much wake up every hour or so, to go potty, or from a contraction.
Best moment this week: Knowing without a doubt that no matter what, it will not be more than 14 days until I have my baby.
Movement: Movement is pretty decent. A little slower, but still happening.
Food cravings: Still loving spaghetti.
Gender: ???
Labor Signs: Irregular contractions, for the past two evenings I have about 2-3 hours in which I get contractions between 2 and 10 minutes apart. But then I go to bed, and it's over.
Belly Button in or out? Innie!
What I miss: Thinking about things other than going into labor.
What I am looking forward to: Ummm, labor beginning!
Weekly Wisdom: It's ok to feel impatient at the end. It doesn't mean that you don't like being pregnant, or that you can't take it. It's natural.
Milestones: Week 40!
