39 weeks.. the last week of this pregnancy!

It's official, I am in my 39th week of pregnancy! This will be the last week I carry this baby inside my belly, if he doesn't come on his own I will be induced on the 21st. I really truly hope he decides to come out soon. For the past 3 days I have had maybe a total of 5 hours of sleep. It's impossible to get comfortable and I am in constant pain, sometimes unable to walk or get out of bed. It's getting ridiculous and to be honest, I have had enough! I've been crying off and on for the last few days because I am truly so miserable and have never felt so awful in my entire life. I want him out now! Last night I woke up at least 5 different times in less than 6 hours, and each time I had to pee at least twice.. so it's safe to say I went to the bathroom at least 10 times last night. Baby boy is sitting very very low and hitting my bladder every chance he gets. I'm tired and cranky and completely irritable and just want my son out already! I know I should be patient but it has been a very long 9 months and I am so done with this phase. I'm ready to meet my son and hold him and share those first moments with my husband.

Yes, I said with my husband :) He came back just in time. I was headed to the airport and the closer I got the more excited I became. I probably looked goofy with a huge smile on my face the whole time walking to the gate. I arrived just in time to see his plane land and I got butterflies. I saw him walking through the terminal and have never been so happy, we ran to each other and didn't let go for several minutes and I of course was trying my best not to burst into tears (tears of joy that is). It was like the first time seeing him all over again. I really can't explain those first few minutes other than it was surreal and felt like I was dreaming. Sounds corny, I know but that's really what it felt like. This morning I woke up next to my husband for the first time in many many months and I knew I wasn't dreaming. I know I'm lucky to have him home right now, there's so many ladies out there who have to have their babies without their husbands around because of deployment. Up until very recently I thought I would be in that situation but things worked out in our favor, thank God!! I was never one to take my husband for granted but now I also remember not to take little moments or big moments for granted either. He is without a doubt the love of my life and there's nobody else I'd rather share this life with. I'm just going to take in this time with him before he has to go back and make it as memorable as possible.

Hopefully the next blog post I write will be all about the baby and have a ton of pictures :)

How far along? 39 Weeks

Total weight gain: 30lbs which is about the amount an average person should gain
Maternity clothes? Pretty much that's all I wear, sadly I ripped the only pair of maternity jeans that I have, how freakin depressing?!!
Stretch marks? Yup, stomach is completely covered :(
Sleep: I've slept maybe 5hours in the past 3days, so I've kinda forgotten what sleep is
Best moment this week: Having my husband come home!! 
Miss Anything? Being comfortable and I really miss sleep and not feeling like my baby is trying to kill me
Movement: Pretty much non stop, he moves with so much force that it actually hurts pretty bad now
Food cravings: Mocha frappe from McDonalds.. seriously addicted to them

Anything making you queasy or sick: Nothing in particular

Gender: Boy!

Labor Signs: Contractions but so far they're not too close together or in a pattern.
Symptoms: Lots of pressure and sharp pain in the pelvic area, very bad sciatica on both sides, heartburn of course, Braxton-Hicks as well as contractions in my lower back.
Belly Button in or out? Definitely out!

Wedding ring on or off? Always on though it is starting to get pretty tight

Happy or Moody most of the time: Kinda sad and moody because of the pain and discomfort but I do try to be happy regardless
Looking forward to: Having this baby asap so I can feel good again and be able to see and hold my son and have my husband be here for it.

My husband and our puppy cuddling, she really missed him and was so happy to see him again

39 Weeks.. seriously ready to burst, never been so uncomfortable in my life
