Baby update & Birthday wishes

First off I want to wish Misty a very Happy Birthday, I hope you have a wonderful birthday with your little guy and big guy celebrating with an enormous glass of wine and a wonderful dinner. Can't wait to see you tomorrow.

I also thought I should post an update of my big fat pregnancy belly. I am officially 37 weeks today (yippee!!!) which means I could go into labor at anytime and she would be perfectly ready and baked for the outside world. I had a Dr's. appointment on Friday (I will see him once a week now) and am definitely sealed shut so we're thinking I'll probably go to my due date or beyond but we'll see. The doc said that if she was born today she would be about 6 lbs give or take and if I go to my due date (3/16) they expect her to be about 7 1/2 lbs; I would much rather her be over 7lbs than 6 since they tend to lose weight when they're born - but I obviously can't control that.

Overall I'm feeling really good except for the horrible bout of carpel tunnel that I developed in the last month or so. Unfortunately there is nothing one can do when they get carpel tunnel from pregnancy, you just have to deal with it as it will go away immediately after the baby is born. CT is caused by the excess blood and fluid in my system creating a sort of blockage in my wrist which in turn numbs my hands and fingers making them feel extremely tight and achy -awesome isn't it. I also have very large ankles at the moment and cringe whenever I look at my feet; however it does give me a reason to get off my feet a few times throughout the day which I never ever usually do until late.

More updates to come as the big day gets closer.
