40 Weeks

How Far Along: 40 weeks, 2 days

Size of baby: Baby is around the size of a pumpkin (19-22 inches, 6-9lbs)

Total Weight Gain/Loss: up 26 lbs.

Maternity Clothes: most everything

Gender: 100% girl

Movement: It's getting less and less, but very powerful. Girlfriend is strong, but she's running out of room.

Sleep: I've been sleeping ok.

What I miss: running for long periods of time/working out hardcore, beer, and sushi.

Cravings: labor. Ha

Symptoms: uuggghhhh nothing. I'm so boring. I go back Thursday if I haven't birthed no baby by then. I'll do a BPP (B-something physical profile) which is a series of ultrasounds to determine how much amniotic fluid is left. Then we will talk induction. I don't want to be induced. I want this baby to show up on her own. We've still got time, right?
