36 Weeks Pregnant...Are we done yet?

I thought I would finally show myself and believe me, there is plenty to show! I am 36 weeks pregnant today and soooo ready for this little boy to get here. I have finally hit that point of being done with this pregnancy. I'm uncomfortable, I can't sleep and my lower back is killing me.

This pregnancy has been totally different from my first and has been great up until about a week ago. Jax was breach - head up and planned c-section but this little guy is head down and I have so much pressure that I didn't experience before. I've put on about the same amount of weight but haven't had any swelling or high blood pressure this time....which is a blessing!
I had a doctor appointment today and everything is looking good. We are just waiting to see how Jake is going to get here....c-section on april 9th or VBAC when he decides he's ready. I'm just taking one day at a time....time will tell.

I got some great sono pics today of Jakes face. He was laying on his side. He has cheeks and a chin like Jax. The second pic shows his nose and lips. He's a bit smashed in that pic.




















So everything is coming along well. I've tried to get a couple of pictures of Jax kissing my belly or talking to my belly but when he sees the camera he thinks he's suppose to say cheese or pose so those pictures haven't happened. This pic - I just love. It was one morning and he had his hand on my belly just taping his fingers....precious. He tells Jake night night and love you and Hi Jake....I hope it goes this well when he gets here!

















These last couple of pictures are just of Jax hamming it up. He pulled down his diaper one night and was running around laughing at himself and of course stopped to say cheese in the process. As he says..."what a mess". Enjoy and we'll keep you posted!

I was just thinking of you wondering if Jake was almost here or already here so I had to check in. You're so close!! I hope you get that VBAC that you want too! I have a good friend who just had her VBAC and had a home birth at that! Anyway, can't wait to see pics! :)
