38 Weeks

38 weeks with #2

38 weeks with X

Please excuse the completely tired look of the top picture! Holy cow, pictures really do speak a 1000 words! In my defense it was at the end of the day on Sunday!

I think I look pretty similar.......maybe a little more out there or pointier now and rounder with X.

I don't know but the good news is if he or she doesn't want to come out on their own this time he or she will be here on Wednesday July 6th, 2011 at some point. So 2 weeks and counting!!!

I am already 2 cm dilated and 50% effaced though which my Doc says is a good thing. Considering it took 12 hours of Cervadil and extra night in the hospital to get to this point with X, I consider this progress! Yesterday I was a little NQR (not quite right) but it poured down rain all morning and X and I never got out of our JJ's. I did do some nesting and resting though so that could have added to my fatigue feeling all day. I had some different "pains" last night but not contractions. I am ready to be done using the potty every 2 hours though, that is FOR SURE!!! I think I buy a 12 pack of toilet paper every week at the store.......

Xavier knows there is a baby in the beanie/belly. But I am not really sure he fully understands the concept just yet. It will be interesting to say the least what happens when Baby arrives!

Xavier has also been sleeping in his big boy bed for a week now! It has been a slow transition and of course I have to start back over with getting him to go to sleep on his own again....I have laid down with him each night until he falls asleep. He wakes at various times each time and I usually just run in there and lay back down with him for a few minutes and he is out. I have a feeling I am going to need a gate at his door to keep in his room once I start letting him go to sleep on his own, which needs to be asap! :)

Okay, we have a fun day ahead of us with GG, Sha, Caden and Chloe!
