39 Weeks - Needing Patience

How far long are you? 39 Weeks 
Total weight gain/loss: 25.6 lbs (142 to 167.6)
Maternity clothes? Mostly dresses of sorts, leggings, and whatever I can find to cover the belly.
Stretch marks? The top of my belly has gained some shiners this week... I am 44.75" around.
Sleep: If these amazing contractions would stop.... 4-6 hours every night since Monday is taking a toll on me both emotionally and physically. 
Best moment this week: Knowing my family was safe in the tornado.
Have you told family and friends: Everyone knows 
Miss Anything? My being able to sit like a lady
Movement: YOU ARE STRONG - so come on out!
Food cravings: Chocolate milk and strawberry sprite, corn dogs
Anything making you queasy or sick: My heartburn when it kicks in (always around 8pm)
Have you started to show yet: Yep... huge, low! 
Gender prediction: You are a BOY
Labor Signs: Every night since Monday has been labor 5 minutes apart lasting 50-60 seconds for around 4-6 hours then it just stops. I am out of patience and I need some.
Belly Button in or out? Out - and pointing to the floor.
Wedding rings on or off? On
Happy or Moody most of the time: Very emotional on various degrees. 
Looking forward to: Having you in my arms and healthy!

I am so ready for you to arrive. I know my emotions are probably killing everyone around me. I am so snappy, crabby, and tired. I keep thinking today, then nothing. Honestly if one more person says, "When is he coming?" I may punch something. I don't know how those who go past due dates due it. But in reality, my problem is not that you are 39 weeks. It is that you keep tricking me with contractions and no you, then the fact that your dad will have to leave April 13th-ish and if you do wait another 7 days that leaves us with only 10 days to enjoy Daddy time. It stresses me out thinking about it. I really am not sure how I will handle being a momma of two with no Daddy there to help. No matter what though I promise to be the best momma I can be, to love you always, and to teach you the way I have taught Eddison about life. 

I love you lil man... now show yourself!
