Pregnancy update with some exciting news!

•How far along?: 38 weeks 3 days

•Total weight gain: 25 pounds

•How big is baby?: The size of a pumpkin (18.9-20.9 inches, 6.2-9.2 lbs)

•Movement: Not as much as usual, but I think the baby's just running out of room

•Sleep?: Still sleeping pretty well

•Symptoms?: Still a little swollen in the feet, and feeling uncomfortable 

•Food cravings: Sweets

•What I miss: Being able to breathe

•What I'm looking forward to: Sunday! Wondering why?

•Best Moment this week: My doc said since I'm progressing so quickly and almost dilated to 3cm, she'd let me get induced a week early. After some thought and conversation with Greg, we decided to go for it! So I'm being induced Sunday, September 1 at 6am. I was induced with Savannah too (because of minor complications) and labor was quick so pray that this one is quick as well. Everyone says that your first delivery is the longest so if that's true, this baby should be out in the world in just a few hours. 
            I'm getting so excited! But nervous, because let's be honest, giving birth is scary. It's awesome, but it's scary. I'm totally the type of person that thinks of all the things that could go wrong, because I want to prepare. So basically I've been stressing myself out, and probably for no reason. I really can't wait to meet this little boy and to see what Savannah thinks of him. I don't think she fully realizes that there's going to be a baby living with us, but I think she'll be intrigued by it. 

Now, ...can this week just hurry up and be over already!!
