Pregnancy Update

9 more days....ideally, this baby will be born within 9 more days! I am so ready to start the next chapter in this journey! Sometimes I feel like the day will never come, however, I'm sure it will be here before I know it. Last week I was supposed to go in for my 38 week appointment, but got called off since my doctor got called in to deliver some other lucky lady. So, instead I will be going in tomorrow to see if my body has made any progress. I'm anxious to see what we will find out...if anything. Now that I got that ramble out...can't believe it's been so long since my last post. I tried to type a post a couple weeks ago, but something is wrong with Blogger and my computer compatibility. It's not working the way it's supposed to. I had to resort to typing this in HTML format, so my appologies that this will be one long paragraph with maybe some other minor discrepancies. So, here I am in my final week/s of pregnancy...and to be honest, it's been a pretty easy and smooth 9 months so far. Most of the annoying symptoms I just started dealing with in the last few weeks, including nasty heartburn and indigestion, MINOR swelling in my hands, and CONSTANT fatigue and exhaustion. Other than that, I've not had too much to complain about. I sleep fairly well at night. The worst part is trying to roll from one side to the other...I do a lot of grunting in the process. My husband has informed me that I've acquired quite the ability to put out a good snore. The other night I found him out on the couch. I went and asked him if he was going to come back to bed...he said, I don't know, are you done snoring like a freight train? Hahaha whoops. Lately I've managed to wake myself up from snoring a few different times. I don't know, I guess it doesn't bother me any :) But, I guess that's what happens when you pack on 25-30 pounds and your insides get all smooshed together and you can't breathe like you used to. I'm just glad I'm sleeping. Well, that's all I have time for. I'll try not to wait so long until my next post. Peace out!
