40 weeks
For the record, I just spent 45 minutes puking. HG till the bitter end, I suppose. Is it twisted to be looking forward to the lactated ringers tomorrow? Betcha I could start my own IV.
I am 40 weeks today and I have a damn upper respiratory infection. I think I caught it during my foray into the real world at the birthday party. Wouldn't you know it would end like that for me? I am on Day 2 of a Z pack and I hope to God that I am feeling its efffects very shortly.
It's almost over....and its so surreal that I am not even excited. Well, I am excited that I get to see all my favorite nurses at 7:30 am tomorrow. Guess I should finally pack that damn bag, eh?
I'm packing take out menus for all my favorite places first.
And for fun...Himself took some pictures to show me why people look so surprised when I turn around.




What a beautiful belly! May you have a smooth, quick delivery tomorrow.

I can understand it, too! You look adorable, and Leah Catherine's going to be even more adorable when she comes out! Best of luck to you, and I can't wait to hear about her.

I can see why they'd be surprised too. Good luck tomorrow. I can't wait to hear about your baby girl (and of course, see pictures but only if you want to share).

I would be surprised too! Wishing you all the best tomorrow when you finally meet your girl!

I can certainly see why there would be surprise. I'll be hoping for the best for you all tomorrow. And don't forget those take out menus. You can't possibly reembrace food if all you get is hospital food.
Good Luck!!

Everything crossed for tomorrow. And dang you are one skinny woman!

That is a surprise, but of the nicest variety. Good luck tomorrow, I will be thinking of you.

Wow, you don't even look preggers from behind! Well I will be thinking of you tomorrow and hoping that it all goes smoothly. Taking a Z Pak right before delivery might be a bit of a surprise blessing due to small chances of Strep and/or Staph being in the nether regions in the last trimester. The upper respiratory infection sucks tho. I hope you feel better in time for tomorrow.

O.K., HG aside, it's really hard for me to not hate you when your bum is that small.
I'll be thinking of you tomorrow. Can't wait to see your sweet baby girl.
