No Dice

So I had another doctor appointment today.  Heartbeat is still strong.  My belly measured 37 cm today, so he's still growing.  Last week it was 36.  Turns out I'm not dilated at all.  So it has been Braxton Hicks or practice surges.  When the doctor was checking to see if I was dilated and feeling how big he was, he kicked her.  She was surprised and asked was that the baby?  That was a big kick.  He kicked me like twice.  I was just like, yeah.... That wasn't even the strongest he can kick or push back.  What can I say?  He doesn't like being touched or poked.  He is his father's son.

38 Weeks

Well as of today, I am 38 weeks pregnant.  Only 2 weeks left!  It feels like its gone by fast, but at the same time, I feel like I've been pregnant forever.  And this week we're pretty sure I started getting Braxton Hicks or practice surges as they are called in Hypnobirthing.  I don't feel anything, which is weird.  My belly just gets hard.  The only time I notice it is when I'm leaning forward or something and I can feel it against my ribs hard, instead of squishy.  I think at my next doctor appointment on Friday, I'll have her check to see if I am dilated at all.  Cause if not, then its just Braxton Hicks.  I want to at least make it through the rest of this month at work, but at the same time, I'm getting to the point of tired of being pregnant.  I miss being skinny and wearing my old clothes, especially jeans.  I miss being able to wear cute jeans.  I've had to start sleeping in Josh's clothes since a lot of my tshirts are not long enough to cover my bump all the way.
