Week 39!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Your baby's waiting to greet the world! She continues to build a layer of fat to help control her body temperature after birth, but it's likely she already measures about 20 inches and weighs a bit over 7 pounds, a mini watermelon. (Boys tend to be slightly heavier than girls.) The outer layers of his skin are sloughing off as new skin forms underneath.
It is a bizarre feeling not knowing where we'll be in a day...a few days...a week. Home or hospital? No sleep for a good reason (baby) or no sleep for a dumb reason (itchy belly)? I am just really anxious to hear what the doctor has to say today! I'm trying to be really calm and rational and remind myself that when the baby is ready she'll make herself known...but I really just want that to be ASAP.
Last day of work until the end of February! And it is pajama day. Thank goodness.
Hospital bag is pretty much ready to go (at least my stuff and the baby's stuff is...Chris hasn't packed anything yet!) so we're just counting down the minutes...
