37 Weeks!

37 weeks!

The two most often asked questions lately..

1) How do you feel?

2) How much longer?

Answers are.... (drum roll please)

1) I feel great! Honestly.. I do! I'm sleeping fine, getting around just fine, feeling very comfortable, not sick, not tired, etc. Sometimes I even forget I'm pregnant until I try to shave my legs, bend over to pick something up, or roll over in bed.

2) I honestly have no idea. I don't cling closely to "due dates" because only about 5% of births actually happen on the "due date". I always just say sometime in November. There is no planned induction date and no talk of induction. The midwives rule of thumb is 2 weeks after the estimated due date. If Gabriel waits that long, we'll cross that bridge when we come to it.. but I'm positive that he'll make his appearance when he's ready whether it's sooner or later.

Other than that.. just enjoying life AND I'm SUPER excited that Candy Cane Joe Joe's are BACK at Trader Joe's!!!!!!! We had a box in the freezer that Lee and I finished a few days ago so the timing is PERFECT!! We also bought a box of chewy eggnog cookies to try.. can't wait to nosh on a few with a big mug of hot chocolate!

Good for you! Soak up every minute. One of the things I'm SO glad I did was rest and relax a TON before my baby was born. Enjoy that little luxury.

I am so glad you feel great!! That's wonderful :) And you're right... that baby will come when he comes.

Sounds like a may need to make a trip to Trader Joes! I am stoked that I found Silk Nog at the store! Tastes just like egg nog and is a lot better for you!

HA.. I spoke too soon.. slept HORRIBLY last night after posting this blog.. I guess that's what I get for bragging ;)

Christine - I've been making myself rest and relax at least a little everyday and long nap was definitely on the list of things to do today!

Stacey - you just made my day with the Silk Nog nugget of info.
