The Waiting Game

(click on title to read entire post and comments)
Today I am 39 and 1/7 weeks. Everything is still on right on schedule per this morning's appointment, although I was a little shocked to learn I've gained 4 lbs this week! Needless to say the doctor's estimate of the baby's weight today was a little higher than I expected, so it's time to lay off the extra cookies. Here is an updated belly photo:



Meanwhile I've been enjoying my elective rotation on complementary and alternative medicine and if I hold out until Monday, I get a free 1-hour massage (sweet!). I've been walking and swimming most days of the week, which has been a great way to take the weight off my front side, although I'm sure I provide loads of entertainment for the other pool-goers in my maternity bathing suit. Ilya has finished building all the nursery furniture (we did end up exchanging the cheap stuff for a new and improved set) and so the room is pretty much ready for baby's arrival.



Not much else new at this point, but stay tuned for updates!
