37 weeks

I had my first weekly appointment on Wednesday (37w 4d technically). The doc said "I can feel her noggin." 50% effaced, 1cm dilated.

I can tell the baby has dropped because I can breathe easier when laying down, but these days I sure am easily winded and very tired. Moving slow. The high humidity does not help.

Celebrated my birthday today (Thursday) with a day off from work and donuts for breakfast. And a hubby who has been working relentlessly for the past 48 hours to get our nursery in working order. (I've helped some, and am fortunate for a couple of baby sitters -- Laura and mom -- to help free us up).

For the most part, the nursery is set to go -- just needs a little decorating and diapers out. One more load of laundry. Then to pull out other baby "essentials" and get our bags packed. And try to come up with a plan for Avett. And a name for the baby. 

One strange thing -- I craved cottage cheese this week. Only craving i can recall having besides the good old sweets! 

Getting anxious and excited over here!!!
