37 week update: My cervix is starting to soften but I'm still closed! 😭😭 but my doctor said don't be discouraged because that literally means nothing at all.(I'd be lying if I said I wasn't just a little disappointed)
And if I don't have him on his own by his original due date(11/26) they will induce me within 3 days!
Which means I won't have to be 45 minutes from the hospital and worry about going into labor!
Other that that. I only gained .3 lbs this week. (The prior week I gained 3 lbs)
Which is super odd. The week that I gained 3 pounds I was eating huge salads every single day. And this last week that I only gained .3 pounds I literally ate pizza. Chinese food. Wendys. Taco Bell...just a super unhealthy food week!
& he gave the nurse a run for her money when she was trying to get his heart rate! Which was pretty hilarious!
Oh and. All of a sudden I had a new doctor checking my cervix today!? It was so strange. She is basically now my 2nd OB during my visits. But she was super nice and informative. I kinda wish she was my OBs assistant my entire pregnancy because I totally like her wayyyy better!!!

@camdensmama, oh no! I haven't even had any Braxton hicks... I'm starting to get nervous because I feel like when I finally do get contractions they're going to totally kick my ass. Is he head down??

@levleah, yes ma'am. Been head down my entire pregnancy. And they aren't fun. Trust me. But you just have to remind yourself to breath through them and don't tense up!

@camdensmama, girl, I went to my dr yesterday to check on her position and she's still footling breech. She's literally standing straight up! It's so weird because she's not even curled up... Desperately hoping she flips... I do NOT want a c section! 😫😭

Oh wow. That's crazy. Baby C literally is head down and wrapped around my entire belly like a circle. His feet are in his face all the time! This boy has no room to be straight up and down even if he wanted!
