Get this Baby OUT!

It's been a while since I posted!  Partially because nothing too exciting has happened and partially because I am too tired and lazy to actually log on and put two sentences together.  For those of you interested, here is the week 36 belly picture in all it's glory.

And here is the week 37 baby picture! Poor guy has his mom's cheeks!  But I do have to say he looks much cuter than his alien picture at 18 weeks.  What a fatty!  He currently weighs 6 pounds 11 ounces.  I'm pretty sure he's going to be an 8 pounder, which is fine.  I'm good with anything below 9!   

At our last check up I was 50% effaced and only dilated to a 1.  This is very discouraging, but there's little we can do but wait.  But that didn't stop me from trying out a few old wives tales.  Yesterday I hit a whole new level of  miserable so I spent part of the afternoon googling.  

After work Rocky and I went to dinner at Maggiano's where I had Eggplant Parmesan which several women on one baby blog said did it for them.  I also read cleaning the kitchen floor on your hands and knees can do it.  I assume it is more the position and motions so I cleaned the bathtub instead and then look a long hot bath.  I spent the last part of the night bouncing on my exercise ball.  Exhausted I finally went to bed hoping to wake in the middle of the night to labor.  

Instead, I woke up at nine o'clock having slept better than I have in months, but still pregnant.  On today's agenda: primrose oil, a long walk, and high heels.
