Good evening, Xanga World. Tomorrow will be my 38^th week appointment. Doctor told me last time I will be starting my weekly pelvic exams. I wonder if I’ll be any dilated at all. It’s all kind of exciting. I do feel my stomach has dropped a little lower since the last two weeks. I look at myself daily in the mirror and I can see how I’m carrying Kumquat differently now. Almost time!

Today was LONG. I couldn’t wait to get home! Good thing tomorrow will be a light day. I have my doc appointment at 11:00am. Most of my work stuff can be done over the phone tomorrow. Then I’ll need to stop by Macy’s to make a return, and I think that’s it! But I’m so burnt out today, I’ll probably need tomorrow to recuperate.

Over the next few days I’ll need to wash the baby bedding and clothing, reorganize the guest bedroom for Grandparents when they come down the weekend Kumquat arrives, and then just some light tiding up of the rest of the house.

40 weeks. Almost.

Our little muffin will be done baking in two more weeks. Well, actually he’s probably done baking about now and will pop out whenever he’s ready. I’m a proud mom-to-me, and I can’t wait! I really try not to think about it too much as I am getting more and more anxious with our due date nearing. And really, it could happen any time now. My bags are packed, my maternity leave is in place at work, and I am just waiting for our little kumquat’s arrival.

For the past couple of weeks my appetite hasn’t been the best. I read online somewhere saying it’s actually normal to start feeling nauseous again after eating due to the lack of room in the stomach now. I do get hungry often but can’t seem to eat as much anymore. Most things don’t taste that appealing to me either. For most of the pregnancy I’ve lived on milk and cereal, it was what my body wanted all the time. Now even the milk and cereal craving has tapered off.

I’ve stopped going into the office everyday. I still take calls from clients and can usually help them or answer questions from home, as long as I have my computer. I’ll be going on my last 2 appointments tomorrow. One is at 3:00pm, and the other one is at 7:30pm. After that I am DONE. Just going to concentrate on getting as much rest as I can.

Ok, gonna get a massage on my massage bed and hit the sack… long day tomorrow.

Hope everyone is doing well.

Good night!
