- How far along? 38 Weeks Down - 2 Weeks To Go!
- Baby size: Pumpkin
- Baby milestone: The baby may have an inch or more of hair at this point.
- How did your doctor's appointment go this week? Are you dilated? My appointment went well. Things are looking good and I have started dilating! Granted I was only less than 1 cm dilated but hey, at least it is a start!
- How is the "to do" list coming along? I think I pretty much have everything bought that I wanted to buy. Now I just need to do some baby laundry, set up the bassinet, install the car seat and pack the hospital bag.
- How is the "nesting" going? Besides what I mentioned for the "to do" list, I also want to put together a few more freezer meals, as well as probably get some pantry ingredients for quick-fix meals. I also in general just want to do some more laundry for the entire household and clean My Farmer's and my bedroom.
- Any swelling now? I shouldn't have said anything a couple weeks ago - I have started getting a little swelling in my feet and fingers. All I have to say is thank goodness it is nice enough to wear sandals and I'm thankful my wedding ring still fits!
- Any crazy or unexpected pregnancy symptoms? This was unexpected for me, I have had a few mornings where I have woken up with a charley horse in one of my legs. One morning it was so bad I couldn't sit up to massage it or get up to stand on it, so I had to wake up My Farmer to help me - probably not the best thing, initially he thought it was "time"! He sure got moving right away but as soon as I said I needed him to massage my charley horse in my calf, he calmed down and went back into half-way asleep mode.
- Are you planning on doing anything fun to destress before the baby arrives? I got a pedicure before my doctor's appointment earlier this week and if we can't be in the field tomorrow, My Farmer and I are going to go to the movies and have a little date - just the two of us. So part of me really wants it to be too wet to be in the field so we can go on a date but then the farmer in me knows that if we can be, it'd be best if we could actually be in the field.
- Emotions: Still feeling good and pretty easy going. I got pretty active working on my to do list and nesting last week but after my appointment and finding out I was less than 1 cm dialated I have eased back on getting things done, which is too bad, because I really need to get things done still.
