UPDATE!

Okay so I know many of you are probably checking the blog regularly and wondering what is going on and how I am looking these days. Well huge and uncomfortable would be a few words that I could use to describe myself right now. It's only been the past few days that I have been really uncomfortable though so I can't complain. All in all things have been great. I've been really lucky. I'm still working and staying busy. I figure I might as well while I can. I had two of my clients place their babies for adoption last week so it was a really busy week for me. The week just flew by. I went to the doc on Wednesday and found out things are starting to happen. I was dialated to a 1 and 70% effaced! Crazy huh. I'll be honest, I was hoping the doc would say...sorry things just aren't happening yet. Part of me wanted to ask if there was any way to sew it up a little down there because I'm not quite ready to be progressing. Ha Ha. I mean how many people ask to slow things down when they are almost 39 weeks. I know I'm crazy. I really don't want to have the baby until after the 28th. Chill will be done with his rotation and his tests. Plus my sisters won't be in town until the 27th. It would just work out SO much better for all of us. Do you love how I think I can totally plan for when this baby is going to come. Anyway so I decided I better put myself on a self induced bed rest if I plan to keep this baby in for another week. Well that only lasted a few minutes because then I decided I better go to work. I am taking it really easy though for the most part. Yes I am playing it up to my advantage. Especially when I am working over at dad's shop. I am going to the doc again this Wednesday and if I have progressed more and if he thinks I'll be at least a 3 by Monday March 31st, then my doc will induce me. Can you believe it? One more week. I am a freaking out a little and I think I'm still in denial! So there is the update. I'll try and post something again after the appointment on Wednesday.

So here I am! I know my face is getting really round huh! Ha Ha.
I'm just checking out my big belly. It's really sticking out there.
Don't I look cute. He He! I definitely look really pregnant.
