I am 37 weeks pregnant and officially FULL TERM! I got checked for the first time and I'm 50% effaced. I am hoping I go into labor a little earlier than my due date because the pressure is getting worse. This last week, I've had a lot more pelvic pain and pressure and my feet and ankles are starting to swell. I don't think having a baby at the end of August in Texas is the best idea, but only a few weeks and he will be here for sure!
This has been a very sad week with losing our PaPa, but I feel comfort knowing that he is no longer in any pain and that we will get to see him again one day. He would have been so happy to be here for baby Barrett's birth, but I know he will be there watching over us with a huge smile on his face. |
