Week 38

How far along: 38 weeks 2 days
Only: 12 days until due date

Total Weight Gain: 29 pounds

Best Moment this Week: The doctor's appointment went great. I've started having some mild contractions, but nothing consistent. We also got our maternity pictures! Susanne King did an amazing job!

Experiencing: lots of movement from baby, I'm moving less and less, some rib pain, mild contractions, and swelling

Belly button: in
Wedding rings: nope 

Looking forward to: Chris and I are celebrating our first anniversary on Sunday! I love that we are ending our first year of marriage with anticipating the arrival of a new life into our family.

Feelings: Ready to see what my baby girl looks like! I'm also a HUGE planner, like, I make lists of the lists I need to make. This has been the hardest part so far... just waiting for her to be here. When will she be here? Will I be at home? Will Chris be here with me or will I have to call him at work? A friend told me today that no matter what, even if it's not how I want it or planned it, it will be as it should be. This will be my mantra over the next couple of weeks. "It will be as it should be. God is in control."
