New symptoms...pregnancy insomnia! I find myself laying in bed at night, wide awake, waiting for morning to come. The other night I was up doing some paperwork from 3-6 a.m. because I was wide awake! I suppose this is to prepare me for Baby Girl's feeding schedule :) I have been feeling more tired these past several days but I still don't feel the tiredness is from the pregnancy itself, just from lack of sleep. My belly button hasn't popped out yet but I think that is just an old wives tale relating the belly button pop to baby being fully cooked! My feet continue to resemble pregnant feet (swollen, fat, and lack of definition) but that will go back to normal someday.
I haven't been as good this past week about my morning walks, primarily because I'm dragging to get out of bed before the sun gets too hot. I'm cutting back on my patient caseload even further this week so hopefully that means Baby Girl understands she can now make her appearance. My goal was to work through today for some re-evaluations that needed to be completed and now my assistant will be set for the next month. Huge stress relief knowing my patients are in good hands :)
Our appt is still scheduled for Thursday, July 19...hopefully we'll have some indication after that appointment when she is arriving. Ryan and I are both starting to get a little impatient at this waiting but we don't want to be induced unless it is medically necessary. Can't wait until she decides her birthdate!
