Bumpdate week 38.5

So week 38 is actually almost over. Sorry its been taking me so long!

So for the past two weeks I have been getting "checked" at the doctor. My first check I was 1 cm dilated and 75% effaced. Great!
Last week nothing changed. It was kind of frustrating because I feel like all this pain and discomfort was for nothing.
So now I have just come to terms that this kid is staying in there as long as he can.

Mitch and I are 100% ready for him to come. We want to see who he looks like. We want to hold him. We want to comfort him. All the normal things new parents want we want.

So Will still gets hiccups everyday. He is super low now. Still moving and kicking most of the time. He has given me some scares where he won't move until I have an otter pop.

Mitch is excited and ready. That pretty much it.

As for me I of course am uncomfortable. I don't know a woman who is 9 months pregnant and 1-2 weeks from their due date that isn't uncomfortable. The heat is making me swell a lot. Will is also getting really heavy in my pelvis so that's not fun. But I know it will all be worth it.

In other news, Monday and Tuesday are my last days at work and I am actually really sad. Now some of you might wonder why I don't just go back to work after baby, well we don't have family out here in Utah to help us watch him and if we got a sitter then I would be working just to pay someone to raise my child and we don't want that. My new job will be mommy and I could not be happier. As for Mitch he got a promotion at work that thankfully came with a pay raise. It was perfect timing for us really. He also will be starting school in like 2 weeks!

Just an FYI, we will be doing more YouTube videos instead of blog posts. I will post more about that once Mitch and I are ready to announce the fun things to come. Have no fear I will still do blog posts but it will be slightly different. So look out for our announcement some time soon!
