We have a full-term baby, let's get her out of there!

As of yesterday Rhia is officially full-term--which means now it's just a waiting game. I hate waiting. I honestly thought that I'd barely make it to full-term two months ago. And now here I sit, waiting, impatient, and beyond sick of being pregnant. I am huge (honestly, the only clean article of clothing that I could fit into today is a mumu type dress, that is actually not a maternity dress and looked much cuter when I was all skinny, but it's working pretty well right now), uncomfy, stretched to the max, and unpleasant to be around. I am going to go for a nice long walk after I finish this. A very long walk. It's gorgeous outside (70 and sunny), and if I go into labor as a side effect, then that would be wonderful.

I know my ranting is selfish and whiny. But I really thought that I'd have a baby by now, or at least around now. And everyone keeps saying that I have a few more weeks (which is true, technically, but a due date is just smacked in the middle of a 4-week average gestational span, and I'd really rather have her on this side of the average). But damnit, I just want my baby already! Patience is not my strong point.

We had an ultrasound on Thursday--no pictures, because he could only fit pieces of her on the screen at a time! It's amazing, the first time we saw her she was less than half an inch long, and now she's an average-sized baby--he did measurements of everything, and she was measuring right where she should (her head was about a week big, which is scary for me), so despite my measuring small, I have a decent-sized baby in there. Based on averages, she should be around 20 inches long now (!!!!) and weigh close to 7 pounds. ish. We did get to see her heart, her brain, an ear, her legs, and also triple-checked that she's a girl. Thankfully, that hasn't changed--otherwise all of the pink/purple stuff we have would be pretty silly.

And that's all. Still working, still waiting, still driving Al nuts with my whining. I put the carseat base in today, so everything is totally ready for her to get here. Hopefully sooner rather than later. I have a doctor's appointment tomorrow to see if there's anything happening--keep your fingers crossed for me.
