How far along?: Almost 39 weeks!
Total weight gain: 18 pounds

Stretch marks?: I am SO very blessed. I do not have any at all. I am putting globs and globs of coconut oil and coconut butter on my stomach every day, twice a day.
Sleep: Can’t get enough of it.
Labor Preparation?: Allison's room is all ready, her linens and clothes are washed, her car seat is installed and we have our hospital bags packed. We have a few minor things to do but we are READY to meet our little girl.
Best moment this week:Finding out that we have an induction date set for February 16 if our princess doesn't come before that date.
Movement: Allison is very strong and loves to kick mommy in her right rib. She also LOVES music. Anytime there is music playing she loves moving.
Food cravings: Peanut butter!!! I cannot get enough.
Leakage: nope.
Labor Signs: Braxton Hicks and light contractions but nothing other than that. I have been walking, trying to eat spicy foods, and do as many squats as possible.
Belly Button in or out?: In and out. ha ha
Wedding rings on or off?: ON. I have been Oh So blessed. I have had zero swelling, praise the Lord!
Symptoms: I caught a BAD stomach bug or something... After running to the bathroom 8 times, a 2 hour nap, and a gallon of water later I am feeling a little better but I am still really weak and tired.
Doctor's appointment and update: The doctor says everyone looks really healthy and that I am progressing nicely. Baby girls heartbeat is around 135-145! I am 3cm dilated and 75% effaced. I am praying that my body will go into labor naturally, but if it doesn't, we have an induction date set for the morning of February 16. We are 10 days away!!!!!!!!!
