Full Term


I am 37 weeks and 2 days to be exact! I've been going to regular acupuncture sessions with Dr. Xu to help with this Sciatica pain as well as to help with the birth. However, Yoga has been my most loved excercise of all. I really feel that is what will have helped me the most during labor.

I started my maternity leave on July 27th and I have been keeping myself really busy, as it is easy to become a couch potato when I don't have any sort of schedule. Between organizing my house, cleaning, and decorating Lyric's side of the bedroom, I have plenty to do before his arrival.
And on my free time, I have been out and about walking --- A LOT! At least 10 blocks whenever I go out. Having Delilah really helps me get out of the house and out the park on the days that aren't so cold. (hopefully we get more of them)

My last prenatal was Thursday with Angelika (my midwife). Lyric's heartbeat is 138 bpm. My stomach measured 37cm. and my blood pressure seemed to be a little better, 96/50. And I've gained a total of 34 lbs total. Everything looks/sounds great.

My prediction is August 14th for the Big Day!
