37 weeks

As I end the 37th week I am very anxious for Baby Hoffe to arrive. The hardest part of this whole pregnancy, I think, is the last few weeks. Not only because I am getting so uncomfortable, but not knowing when signs of labor will begin. Every one's time table is different. When I hear of people delivering 2, 3, 4 weeks early, it makes me anxious to make sure I have everything ready to go. Then I hear of people who are 1-2 weeks late and think - oh my goodness, there is no way. At my 37 week appointment, baby was still measuring right on, the heart rate was in the 130's again, I lost a few pounds (must be all water weight, because my belly has gotten lots bigger this week), and the doctor predicted that baby was a little over 6 pounds (but I hear they are never right). The head was down, but no progess was made again. Bummer! I was really hoping for something. I am looking forward to next weeks appointment.
