Thoughts at 39 weeks

Well, we did it you guys. Blake is now considered full term & can grace us with her presence at any moment. As much as this pregnancy flew by, I also can’t remember a time before I was pregnant? At 39 weeks, I have some thoughts:

We have a fondue reservation for today. I hope we get to enjoy everything that fondue has to offer, but also hope I don’t go into labor immediately following the biggest meal of my life. Yikes.
“Are you over being pregnant yet?” Meh. While I am the most uncomfortable I’ve been, I’m not ready to not be pregnant anymore.
I still have to wallpaper a large wall & build a big bookcase. And by wallpaper & build I mean watch & delegate.
Blake doesn’t have a middle name, we should get on that.
Curious to see what I’ll actually use from my hospital bag. In all honesty, I tried to only pack the ‘essentials’: large cotton undies, a nursing tank & bra, fuzzy pink slippers & socks, hair ties & headbands, and all the toiletries to name a few.
I am very confident in my pregnant body. I feel really good about it. That was until I lifted up my belly (lol) and discovered where all the new stretch marks were hiding.
Aubrey rubs and kisses my belly all the time, I’m gonna miss that.
Confident that my body will do what it has to when the time comes for labor & birth while simultaneously being concerned for my vagina and it’s well being.
All of my pregnancy/Blake dreams have involved breastfeeding.
We go to bed every night wondering “is this our last night..? just us..?”
My ankles have been upset with me for the past 2 weeks.
Other than my ankles and some uncomfortable sleep, I’m not ‘over’ this pregnancy.
I’m ok with people texting me to see if any progress has been made, doesn’t bother me at all. But also, no progress has been made 😂
It’s weird to think about how long we’ve waited for this baby, and now she’s almost here. And weird that you are never truly ready for a newborn baby, no matter the amount of planning that goes into it.
Blake’s first trip to Disneyland will be at 2 months (after shots, yay!) for the new Oogie Boogie’s Halloween Bash. We need to get our costumes in order!
I’m excited for a lot that’s on the way, but I’m most looking forward to watching Aubrey meet her baby sister for the first time.
