38 weeks

How far along? 38 weeks 
Size of the baby: Our baby is the size of a pumpkin - about 19.5 inches long and weighing over 6.5 pounds. 
Interesting Facts this week: At my appointment today my doctor told me that Rylee's heartbeat sounded wonderful! She is measuring 36cm (2 more than last week because she is growing like she is supposed to), I am still 1.5cm dilated, and now 80% effaced. She mentioned that by 39 weeks (next week) that if I wanted to I could schedule an induction for Rylee to come early. Mike and I don't feel like getting induced is needed. We want her to come on her own and I will only plan on getting induced if my doctor recommends it. 
Stretch marks? None
Sleep: Sleeping horrible lately-I cannot seem to get comfortable and I have to goto the restroom every 1-2 hours.
Best moment this week: Getting to hear Rylee's sweet heartbeat and knowing that I am getting much closer to meeting her.
Miss Anything? Sleeping through the night.
Movement: Rylee is constantly moving all the time and I'm loving every bit of it. 
Food cravings: Mexican food and Dr. Pepper
Anything making you queasy or sick: No
Have you started to show yet: Yes!
Gender: girl-Rylee Lynn Sosbe<3
Labor Signs: None that I know of
Belly Button in or out? Still in for now...
Wedding rings on or off? On for now...
How are you feeling? Tired but anxious to meet our baby girl in just a couple of weeks!
Looking forward to: Relaxing this week, finishing my 'nesting' phase by cleaning the house, and finding out if I have progressed next week at my appointment!
