Baby is Comfortable

Just got home from my 39 week appointment.  According to my OB, baby is quite comfortable where she is.  Her heartbeat is between 140-150bpm and she's still head down and facing the right way.  She's still squirmy and I get her bum or her knee poking out on a regular basis.  I occasionally get elbows to my hips too, but not very often.

Everything on my end is good too.  My fundus height is still growing and I'm sitting at 40cm this week.  I finally hit my 20lb mark of weight gain, but everything else is still really good.  My bp this morning was 112/68, so that was fantastic.  The doctor actually said "I'm sure we'll see you at your appointment next week", so she even thinks I'll at least reach my due date (the 15th) or go overdue.

I've finally got the nursery all finished, and I think it looks really good.  I've already been spending time hanging out in there and getting used to the setup.  I made a make-shift bed on the floor in there, since I'm not sure baby will be able to sleep in our room with Jon's snoring (lol) so I will want to be close to her for nursing purposes.

I'm finally starting to get bored with my time off.  I've made a bunch of freezer meals, and cleaned everything, organized everything, and done all the laundry, so there's really not much for me to do during the day.  And I don't like going out because I don't want to go into labour without Jon nearby.  Also, if I go out alone and go into labour, I can't drive myself so I'd be stranded.  It's tricky.

The waiting game is on.  We'll see how it goes!
