38 weeks today
Wow…it has been forever since I updated in here. The baby isn’t even here yet and we’re so busy running around getting ready for her arrival. We’ve met with two pediatricians and think we know which one we are going to go with. This weekend we are picking up all the last minute things for the baby that we forgot to get
I can’t believe there is only 2 weeks and 2 days until my due date is here. At the last doctors visit (I go weekly now) he said he wouldn’t let me go any more than 2-3 days past my due date because of my blood pressure. So far it’s been holding steady, but I guess as a precaution he’ll induce me if I don’t go naturally by then. Giovanna weighs about 7 pounds now…I wonder how much she'll weigh in the end.
Everything has been going great and the whole pregnancy has been wonderful. I really can’t complain. I’m still feeling great. I know a lot of women at this point are so ready to get the baby out but I’m not at that point just yet. I’m still sleeping good, hardly any back pain (only if I do too much)…no major discomforts.
I am getting anxious though, wondering when labor is going to happen, how it’s going to start, and how I’m going to handle the pain of it. I’ve been feeling crampy a lot lately, but I don’t know if I’m having Braxton hicks contractions or not…unless those are what the cramps are. I’m so clueless.
We finally had the 3D ultrasound done about a month ago. My Mom and step Dad were visiting that weekend and we planned it so they could go. She loved being there, and I was thrilled that she could participate in even that small part of the pregnancy with her living 5 hours away. I’ll post those pictures next.
So, that’s it for now. Just waiting on little Gia to decide when she wants to come out and meet us…we can’t wait!!!

Heather - I am so excited for you and Neil. I can't believe you're only 2 weeks away from meeting your little girl, I remember you talking about how badly you wanted a little one. I can't wait to see the pictures, have a very safe delivery and take it easy between now and then :-) Leene
