39 Weeks

At 39 Weeks and Houston STILL doesnt want to make his debut!

I have been having Braxton Hicks contractions since Saturday -- every 8 to 20 minutes -- no pattern -- not consistent. Sleep deprivation is now taking over -- waiting is getting harder -- not much progress this week.

*Wow, I almost look like you could take a pen and pop me!

Matt and I went to our 39 week check up this morning! We were suppose to see Dr. Laffitte but he was delivering way too many babies this morning that Dr. Holloday was helping him out with patients! So, we finally met Dr. Holloday! He was very nice and explained himself well! He very nicely stated that this is 'the babys time to shine' -- 'the babys time to say when' -- and there is nothing we can do but wait for him! Just to relax and enjoy the little time we have alone.  Things can soon change over night or it can be several weeks away! He did say that they would not let me go but 7 to 10 days past my due date... so, at least we know there is a TWO WEEK MAX till we get to meet Houston! 

Weekly Stats:

Weight -- up 1.5lbs (whoops)

Head is W-A-Y down.

We are 6 days way from our due date (01.11.10). Stay tuned! We might see lil' Houston this week!
