40 weeks!

40 weeks with Baby #3

I seriously cannot believe that I am already 40 weeks pregnant! This pregnancy has flown by so fast! I am feeing great, except for the occasional sciatic nerve pain. {ouch!} Yes, I know I look utterly exhausted in the picture. Truth is, I am...but it's been an extremely long day. I had hoped to get a picture this morning before we left for church, but that didn't work out and the rest of the day has been a blur, so this picture just had to do.

I have been having lots of contractions and cramping, but nothing painful or consistent...my body and baby are just getting ready. I honestly don't think he's going to come until closer to my original due date, March 7th. With all three of my pregnancies, the first ultrasound has moved my due date up several days from what I had calculated, but then Lily was four days late and Levi was six days late...closer to what I originally thought.

I'm really not feeling antsy at all. I know he will come when he is ready. I'm truly enjoying my last few days with just Lily and Levi. I want to give them as much love and attention as I can right now because their lives are about to be changed in a huge way.

I'll keep you all updated! Thank you for your prayers!
