38 week check-up

Im 38 weeks tom., but have my appts. on Thursday. Went to the doc today for my weekly check-up, and no progress (no dialation). Im ok with it, David is NOT...lol David gave Caleb a pep talk last week and warned him that no progress = grounding. Clearly Caleb is not threatened. Hes perfectly happy living it up in mommy's belly, and is not ready to make an early appearance.
Other than that, Ive gained a total of 20 pounds so far and blood pressure is great (110/82). Here is my 38 week belly pic:

Igloo Shower

Ive been at Igloo since March, and everyone there has made me feel so welcome. All the ladies were so nice to throw me a shower. I made out with some beautiful gifts.

When does the "uncomfortable phase" set in?

Uh...right about NOW! I knew it would come, and Im suprised I made it this far. But yes, now Im very uncomfortable! I cant find a good position to sleep, sit, stand, or walk in...lol. Everytime Caleb moves, which I still love, it hurts. Its true, love DOES HURT! All I can do is look down at my belly and tell Caleb "Im sorry mommy has no more room for you. If you want to stretch you need to come out."
Ive also found a few stretch marks. Of course I did not think I could go the whole pregnancy without them, but Ive been blessed to make it this far and only get a few. Instead of stretch marks they should be referred to as "war wounds" or "battle scars".
Im 36 weeks +, I'll be 37 this Friday, which is technically considered full-term. Caleb's room is completely finished, his clothes and bedding are washed, and he can come at anytime now. Ive even got my bag packed (for the most part).

Maternity Pictures!!!!

Maria, these came out BEAUTIFUL! Thank you so so much for doing these for us!

35 Weeks and Maternity pics

Maternity Pics will be coming soon! Maria (SIL), was wonderful enough to take maternity pics of David and I yesterday. THANKFULLY we did not go out at 3pm! We took our outside shots at 9am, which it was still pretty warm..lol But Maria was awesome! She let me know when to wipe the sweat off my face, and to let me know when to apply more powder. I cant wait to see how they came out!
So until then, I took a 35 week belly shot. Last doctor visit said Im right on track. Ive only gained 16 pounds so far, blood pressure is still good, and Caleb is moving like crazy still. My appts. are now weekly!!!
