How big is baby?: Sam is around 7-7 1/2 lbs this week!
Food cravings?: I haven't really had any cravings, I just want to eat all the time.
What I'm looking forward to: The day those contractions start to get a little closer together and more severe, I'm looking forward to the day I officially become a Mommy.
Milestone: Sam is around birth size and weight now and all of his organs are functioning properly.
Feelings this week?: I'll be honest I was pretty upset last week when I found out that I hadn't made any progress, I know AJ was irritated by me being so sad about it, lol. I am just really hormonal right now I guess. This week I've been doing what I can to move things along, taking long walks and being on my feet more often. Not sure if it helped or not, but at my Dr's appointment today I got much better news than last time. I saw Dr. Lerch which is another Dr in the practice and she was really nice and efficient. I will be totally fine with her being my Dr if Dr Skiles isn't on call when I deliver. Anyways, I'm still growing on track, and my blood pressure is still good. When she checked me I am still not dialated but I am 60% effaced and she said Sam is at a +2 station, which means he's almost all the way engaged in my pelvis. I looked in my book at home and it pretty much means he's 2 CM away from being fully engaged and ready to go. So that's exciting news, I'm just hoping now that the effacement continues and dialation begins. I'm still so ready to have him, but I'm also accepting the fact that 2-3 weeks isn't forever. But we'll see.
