Update...

Well, I guess I should update all of you on the progress of Tyler getting here since he is taking his sweet time like a lot of our babies do as they enter the world or at least in my world they do.  As of this past Thursday, I have dilated to 3 cm and my OB is telling me that over the weekend (ahem, right now!) that this baby could very well possibly be here.  If he is not here by this coming Wednesday, September 4 that he is planning on me coming into his office and checking me one more time (I have no idea why because I guess 3 cm isn't enough for him?) and then sending me to the hospital to be induced! I'm just so relieved to have more of a time frame because I was getting frustrated with them moving up my due date several times so a part of me has really been thinking am I really due or not due at this time. September 4 just so happens to be my dad's birthday and have already mentioned to him that he may very well have a grandson that will be stealing his thunder for next 100 years or so and that he is perfectly fine with that =).

 

I haven't been sleeping well at all. I've been having more contractions during the day rather than during the night so I always think that maybe I'll go into labor more in the afternoon than in the early morning here in the next few days.  Since I have stopped working and am now home with Hunter all during the day (which I love!), I have gotten more emotional about him not being our only child and have appreciated these days I've been able to be with him one on one.  Don't get me wrong it has been tough and I have definitely been putting my foot down with him more and have had to scrape up my disciplining skills into action.  Not that I didn't before but I guess now that Hunter isn't in daycare where I know that there is only a certain level they can discipline at (or any at all), I've been seeing more of his misbehaviors frequently and I'm glad that I'm the one doing it.  I need to nip this in the bud now before my life really gets bananas.  LOL. 

 

My mom came down to visit over this long weekend and has a crazy feeling that I may go into labor and thought well, I can come down for a little bit.  She is coming down again on September 19.  My mother in law in California will be here this Saturday so she will be here just in time to help out =)

 

I will assure you that my next post will be pictures of our new addition, Tyler and Hunter as a big brother!  Can't wait! Wish me luck!

 

P.S. Just for the record, I haven't gain any weight this month. Actually I lost a pound!  So total weight gain is 32 pounds! Go me!

 

Me at 40 weeks!
