Well, as of today, this baby is officially full term.
I guess I'm a little tired of being pregnant so I'm all for going earlier than my due date. I might even try the nasty raspberry leaf tea suggested by our childbirth educator. Maybe.
I have to call this afternoon to get a sonogram scheduled for sometime in the next week or so.
I'm trying to convince the baby that it wants to drop down so I can feel like there's a possibility of us actually going early. And I still think it might happen soon as the skin of my lower belly is itchy as all get out from stretching and I can feel the ligaments stretching like I could way back at the beginning of this seemingly endless ordeal. Interestingly, while the belly stretch marks are still spreading, the ones on my boobs have already started to fade.
I was just saying how I haven't gotten any of those lovely Braxton Hicks contractions that I've heard so much about and then while the midwife was listening to the baby's heartbeat last night, she proclaimed that I had just had one. But I swear I didn't even notice it so I find that odd. She didn't seem overly concerned about it, though.
Meanwhile, there was good news in that I actually lost a pound this week and I tested negative for that Group B Strep test I mentioned previously.
