40 Weeks Pregnant / When Does This End??

 Well, today's the day. The day we've been counting down to almost all year. My due date! It's finally here! ahhhnnnd no baby. It's okay, I never expected her to come early. But now that I'm full, full term, it's time. I'm getting antsy and excited and impatient and even bigger, and swollen and people are calling and texting to see if I have had that baby YET and everywhere I go strangers are commenting and asking me when I'm due and saying I'm about to burst...and this JUST NEEDS TO END NOW!

At 40 Weeks Pregnant:

The Good:
- I cannot stress enough how much better I am feeling now that I'm taking iron supplements! I have gotten more done in the past 3 weeks, than in the past 4 months, even though I am getting bigger and more uncomfortable by the day I just have so much more energy!
-NESTING!! It's a good thing I have all that energy because I have been cleaning and organizing like crazy around here! It's awesome. If vacuuming and doing laundry and going up and down my stairs and cleaning bathrooms would put me into labor, then I would've had this baby days ago!
-Also I had a GREAT birthday week last week! I guess it started the Friday before with a fun date where we made caramel apples, then Saturday we had our ward Halloween party, I hung out with friends pretty much every day during the day and Wednesday a bunch of us decorated Halloween cookies. Wednesday night our good friends had us over for a delicious dinner where we got to play with their new puppy! Thursday/Halloween/My Birthday Kyle made me a yummy breakfast and we watched a couple episodes of one of my birthday presents, the 6th season of the big bang theory! Then, I went out to lunch with a bunch of my friends, lunch was a ton of fun and I am just so thankful for the great friends I've made since moving here:) And that night we went to a Halloween party hosted by more of our friends and had a great time there!

This was at our Ward Party.
You can't see the bottom of Kyle's shirt, but he has a hamburger and chicken wing:)
And I have a very happy skeleton baby!

Our good friends Sean and Carlee showed up wearing almost the exact same costumes haha,
except they wore theirs to announce their pregnancy, so exciting!!

The Bad:
- Sleeping really sucks. I hate going to bed right now, I just always feel so uncomfortable in bed, no matter how many pillows or different positions I try and I don't sleep well and I just always want the night to be over already so I can get outta there!
- Oh also, my feet are definitely swelling now. And it's getting worse every day. Whenever I take my sandals off now I can always see the straps imprint on my feet:( And sometimes even my new ring bling feels too tight!
- My life is kinda at a stand still right now, I really can't make any plans or think ahead much. Now that my due date is here, every day is just waiting around, hoping something happens sometime soon.
- Overall, I'm just feeling really big and uncomfortable, and things hurt, like my back, and my feet, and all my inside organs that my baby likes to push against, and the magical journey that has been my pregnancy just needs to end now. Have I said that enough yet? But I am still happy these days, and getting very excited to meet my daughter!

Last Week at my Dr Appt, my Dr said I had a cervix of steel haha, this week i was dilated to a 1, so things are slowly happening, however I will be induced sometime next week if Baby doesn't exit on her own soon, so send good thoughts, vibes, and prayers my way over the next few days!

Oh and I couldn't resist taking a couple more belly shots, scroll down if you dare!
