39 Weeks Pregnant

When will it be over... haha... I'm not even past my due date, but if you have ever been close to 40 weeks pregnant you understand the way i am feeling!!! Everything is just not normal, like the way you bend over, or the way you walk.. it just time. Any chance i get, if i drop something i am like "Taylor, can you please pick this up for mommy??" of course she does she loves me!! I was looking at my pictures from when Taylor was born and how rough and tired i look... i just pray every time i think about going into labor with Nora that this time around will be a lot easier. I understand no labor is easy... but i have heard stories of ladies who push out babies in 3 pushes. To me that sounds insane because i was actively pushing with a Doctor from 5:30am till 8:48am, i was so tired that i literally could not push anymore that they had to use the vacuum. I do not want the vacuum used on Nora because 1. There head comes out really alien-like. 2. It ripped me! SO i would like to avoid that tool.
Today is June 30th, we were hoping Nora would make her appearance on Mam-maws birthday... but no luck. She is going to be a July baby for sure! Unless she comes out in the next 4 hours and 30 min. It could happen! HA! Nora is going to be the Cancer sign "the crab" and her birthstone will be a Ruby. I hope she is not a crabby baby! Lol
I have my last appointment Tuesday July, 3rd  (40 week appointment) and if she hasn't made her appearance by then they are going to set up an appointment for induction. Im totally fine with induction too, because i won't ever have to feel a contraction!! I've heard that inductions have higher risk for c-sections but i am willing to risk it if i can get Nora out of me. I am up to 45 pounds, 7 more pounds i gained the same amount with Taylor (52lbs)... this weight is on different parts of my body though then with Taylor. This time around my belly button is out (eww its so gross looking) With Taylor it was just flat. A few weeks after Taylor was born when everything settled down, i had 26 pounds to loose at the gym... literally took me almost 2 years to get into the gym. When i finally did.. and i was 5 pounds away from pre-pregancy weight when i found out i was pregnant with Nora. Starting all over again! I don't mind even if i gained 100 pounds knowing i have Taylor and Nora happy and healthy is all that matters. We are 100% sure that the baby shop is closed for good :) Hopefully I won't have a 40 week post and there will just be a picture of Nora Belle!!!!
