41 Weeks!

How far along? 41 according to my chart, but I'm thinking now that the due date was somewhere in between the 23rd and 30th, so maybe just a few days overdue.

Total weight gain/loss: 12 lbs.

Maternity clothes? Have one pair of maternity jeans that won't quit, then Greg's T-shirts and sweatshirts.

Sleep: Getting up all night to pee or with contractions, was able to take a nap most days this week. Today Greg is at work and so is everyone else so I'm not sure I'll get the chance.

Best moment this week: Peeling the painter's tape off of my new stripy bathroom. All newborns need stripy bathrooms, right?

Movement: Mostly late at night still, active but very very far down. Sometimes I worry this kid's head is getting squished down there.

Food cravings: Really just trying to eat enough to stay alive, otherwise not interested.

Gender: Now that I'm late I'm wondering if it could be a boy?

Labor Signs: Tons of contractions, some regular, some strong, never a real pattern for more than a couple of hours. So frustrating! At today's appointment Dr. said I was dilated one cm.

Belly Button in or out? Hanging in there.

What I miss: Getting calls or texts or facebook messages that said anything except: "Anything happening yet?"

What I am looking forward to: Knowing something for sure.

Weekly Wisdom: Patience is a virtue I am sadly lacking.

Milestones: Last OB appointment.
