37 Weeks

The bleeding stopped. I have had lots of period like cramps which the DR said is my body getting ready for labor. My break was awesome. I really enjoyed relaxing, sleeping, and eating. I went to the DR again on Friday and the mid wife was amazing. I had lost 1.5 pounds since the last Friday and my iron was a little low. NO WORRIES. She preformed another internal exam. I was more prepared this time. I brought extra clothes and underwear. Who would have ever thought internal exams who be so painful and bring on so much blood. At least this time I quit bleeding by Monday and there were NO blood clots. Scary stuff (blood)! I have not seen any blood in over 9 months so it FREAKS ME OUT. Bella is still doing well. She said my cervix has gotten shorter and I have dilated to a 1. Again the DR said you can be dilated to 1 for a couple of hours or this could go on another couple of weeks. She did say next week I could talk to Dr. Grogen about inducing at week 39. I have no idea what I want to do. I want to know she will be here and when BUT I also want to experience call/waking Jay up to tell him it is TIME!

I still feel GREAT. I have had NO swelling. I have low blood pressure and little weight gain.

Jay and I also took some maternity pictures. I feel like I waited to long in the pregnancy to take them. I hope they turn out okay. I am not sure what I will do with them but they were a gift.

Jay continues to amaze me everyday. He is going to be a wonderful father. He told my dad it want hit him that he is a dad until he is driving home from the hospital with a baby in the car. He actual said my dad can drive us home because he wants to be in the back with her. That was so cute!!!
