40 WEEK BUMPDATE

Today IS the day.. Eviction Day.. Induction Day.. Due Day.. Wyatt's Birth Day!!

And no one guesstimated my due date with their prediction. The only one that it could still be is Pops but that is if labor last for more than 16 hours tomorrow once they induce me. I don't think he really has a chance. Next up is the weight and length predictions.

My last pregnant picture was taken this morning as we are headed out the door for the hospital...


  • How far along? 40 weeks... done! 
  • Baby is the size of a... Jackfruit
  • Total weight gain: Wednesday, I was still just under 50 at 48 total. Now for the downward progress.. first method of losing... delivering Wyatt! EEKK!!
  • Maternity clothes? yelp.. and pretty much anything comfy at this point.  I can now start to slowly give hubby back his clothes.
  • Stretch marks? yes... but oh well!!
  • Sleep: I've slept great this week actually. I started to get up fewer times in the night. Although once I hit Wednesday and found out that today is his day then I didn't sleep so great. It wasn't really because my mind was going because I was really tired. My hips hurt me so bad when I lay on my side and well that is really the only way to lay at this point. I'm trading in the hip/back pain keeping me up at night to Wyatt keeping up at night. SOLD! 
  • Best moment this week:  Of course finding out they are going to induce today! I was never big on the induction idea as I wanted to go into labor on my own. If you've been following for at least the last four weeks then you know I have had some struggles with my blood pressure. It has been higher than normal and right on the verge of being a bigger concern. Anyway, since it remained to be high on Wednesday for the 4th straight week, doc decided it would be best to go ahead and get him out. He is considered 40 weeks today so they aren't really inducing early. I also got comfort with inducing because my mom had to be induced with her first. We've had very similar first pregnancies such as no sickness, back pain, needing to be induced, etc. His eviction notice has been served and although it is cold out here, he has no choice!
  • Miss anything? mostly just working out and being comfortable. I miss not itching.. it has gotten insane!
  • Movement: yes, yes, yes... he is really starting to get cramped in there and starting to hurt with his movements.
  • Food cravings:  I had a serious craving this week for guacamole!
  • Food aversions: salads.. I'm ready to start liking salads again. Ha!
  • Gender: BOY!!!! BOY!!!! BOY!!!! Wyatt Christopher Ouren!!
  • Labor signs: nope not really. I was dilated to 3cm and 50% thinned on Wednesday. So we did make some progress since the last time I was checked. 
  • Symptoms: my hips! Ouch! 
  • Belly Button in or out? It is an official outtie!
  • Wedding rings on or off? off, off, off! not going to go back on until after he arrives... so SOON going back on! 
  • Baby Purchases this weeknothing other than receiving a gift from hubby's friend, Julie... A super cute football outfit and a mustache paci. It is adorable! :)
  • Looking forward to: getting my butt to the hospital and starting this labor process. Also, getting to FINALLY meet our little man that has been baking for 9 months. I can't wait to hold him in my arms. I can't believe it is already here!
