Its been a while since i've updated! mostly because we are just waiting and waiting for our baby girl to decide she is ready. I'll be 41 weeks Friday and so far I really have no signs she's coming any time soon. My birthday is on the 25th maybe she's holding out to be born on my special day. :) I can't even lie and say i'm just patiently waiting to go into labor. I'm emotional and grumpy most days when I realize i'm still pregnant :/ I just try to remind myself that this is the best way and she will come when she's ready even if i've BEEN ready. I have just tried to keep myself occupied which is easier said than done for sure. We signed Noah up for t ball and that has been a little distraction. He was supposed to have practice monday but it got rained out :( so his next practice is this Saturday and my best friend has a baby shower Sunday. So i'm definitely looking forward to those things. Her size is around 6 lbs and seeming to stay there. I think I would worry less if I didn't feel like her growth has slowed down some. I've been doing 100g of protein a day to get her weight up though and it worked pretty well from 37 weeks to 40 weeks she gained around 2 lbs. well hopefully my next post will be all about my home birth! I'm so excited for the chance to experience birth this way. As impatient as I am and ready for her to come, if someone offered me a pitocin drip in the hospital right now i'd refuse for sure. Oh, but I cant end this post without saying something about peoples darn comments! maybe they mean well but gee i'm obviously still pregnant. I could definitely do without comments like "I thought you were supposed to be having a baby" or "werent you due last friday" or "whats your dr say" I'm not even a week over my "Due date" yet but most people are induced by now I guess. Last Sunday at church I was only a few days over, I imagine I'll even be at church this Sunday I wonder what kind of comments i'll get then :-/ yikes.
