37 Weeks

 

Today baby Jessie is full term. I wouldn’t want to go 3 weeks before my due date, but it’s nice to know that if labor starts, it’s okay. I feel huge. This baby seems bigger than my last two. I am already at that point where this belly really slows me down. And there ain’t anything I can do about it until she is born. I won’t be getting induced because Washington has a new law making it tough to choose induction before 41 weeks and I told my midwife it will be fun to go on my own this time.  I just may regret that in the next week or so. Ha. After this many births, labor tends to be fast and furious and we live in the country.  I am just hoping she isn’t born on the way out the door.

3 more weeks until my due date and I have those 3 weeks chock full. Last minute getaway with Levi, clean-up and grass planting at Woolly Swamp and I still need to pack my bag for the hospital. Fun stuff.

  12. Nothing like natural childbirth!! Cakewalk compared to induced labor. Blessings, Jen. I always went over with mine too.

  13. You look AMAZING!

    Praying that she’s born in the hospital! My third was an induction- specifically due to how fast my labors were. My Dr was afraid I’d be having her on the side of the road.
