{Nicole said I should use this picture, even though my eyes are closed. So I am.}
I am a little over 38 weeks as of today! I am getting induced next Thursday evening {the 25th} if I don't have her between now and then. I have been having a little back pain, increased Braxton hicks, feeling a little pressure {because she has dropped} and I am extremely tired!! Other than that, I feel pretty good! I still can't believe I only have 5 days {or less..}! I am really excited to meet her! I had my 38 week check up on Thursday, the 18th, and my doctor checked me and I am 4cm dilated and 60% effaced! I am so happy to hear that!!
This evening we celebrated Nicole's 25th birthday! We realized we have known each other for 9 years and we were remembering the first time we ever hung out.. She was 15 and had just gotten her driving permit, so she came and picked me up in her mom's explorer (with her mom in the passenger seat, of course!! :) and we went to the Seatac Mall!! ha!! Anyways, she took lots of pics at her birthday celebration and I am planning on stealing some of them from her ;) I was so bummed because I had to leave a little early because I just wasn't feeling great.. I really thought my water was going to break or something because I had the craziest pressure. I am feeling a little better now, but just trying to relax!
I hope you are all having a great weekend! Maybe next time I blog, I will be a new mom!!! PLEASE keep us in your prayers!!
