Pregnancy Thus Far

We hit 37 weeks on Saturday, so baby girl is officially full term now! My due date is March 2nd, but as long as everything goes well, my midwives will let me go to 42 weeks before they induce.  So at the very latest, March 16th, we will get to meet this little girl! That's within the next 5 weeks, which is really crazy for me!  I'm very tired of being pregnant, BUT, I'm not sure if I'm ready to have her yet! I've been really blessed to have such a great, healthy pregnancy. I only had about 2-3 weeks of really bad nausea where I didn't want to eat anything and I've obviously had emotional ups and downs, but that's to be expected.  Getting in and out of bed has been harder and harder to do, and within the last couple weeks, my belly finally got big enough to where I can't see my enormous size 10 feet!  The 3 flights of stairs up to our apartment seem to get taller each day, but I'm managing.  I'm really tired all the time and am waiting for my "nesting" spurt of energy (I feel like I've been cleaning and organizing like crazy, but I haven't had that boost of extra energy yet).  But I've enjoyed being pregnant for the most part and can't wait to meet this little girl!  

So Ryan and Blanca and I will be doing lots of hiking, walking, etc. over the next couple weeks to hopefully get things moving!  We'll see when she makes her grand appearance!

6 wks(might have been sucking it in), 19 wks(finally started having a belly), 30 wks, 33 wks, 36 wks, 37 wks!




Just as a side note, Cassie came and spent the weekend with us last week and we went to a pretty cool Western Heritage Parade.  There was even a cattle drive through the middle of downtown San Antonio!
The bottom picture is of Cassie sitting in Rylee's stroller! It holds up to 70 pounds, and she's still not quite that heavy.
Her legs are obviously way too long though!
