39 Weeks and still pregnant...

Well, here we are at 39 weeks. I can't believe how close it is to Wyatt's arrival, yet every day seems to take forever! I guess I had my hopes up that he would be here by now, but at least the end is in sight and very near!! Overall, I have been feeling ok for having a full-size baby taking up all the space in my belly :) Even with the limited space, he is still managing to perform dance moves in there and loves to run his foot/knee along my ribs and side!

I had my weekly doctor appointment last Wednesday and finally had a little progress...1-2 cm dilated, 25% effaced. Not alot, but it was good news, considering the week before, I was not dilated at all. I have been having a few mild contractions at random times, but nothing that has been all that painful. I go back to the doctor on Wednesday this week and we will schedule an induction then, most likely for the end of the week. I am hoping and praying that things will get started on their own before that, but am willing to be induced if that is what it takes to get him here :) The car seat is in the car, so we now officially have everything ready to go! Hoping to have a baby this week!!



Thought I would share another funny picture with you. Since we don't have a baby yet to practice on, we had to use Peyton to try out our new baby wrap. As you can see, he looks thrilled to be in it....hopefully Wyatt likes it better :) Not to mention, it was a little difficult to use with my big belly in the way!
