Week 38

Not long to go now! Rex has been very active for the last two days (enough to see it from the outside), & I've been peeing like a champion. I've also been getting strange twinges in my groin which is almost like .. hmmmm... you know when you're little and your friends or sisters are trying to tickle you but they try too hard & they press on a nerve & it just hurts instead? It's a bit like that, right where your leg meets the rest of your body. All of a sudden, like someone has poked a big finger in there & your knees go all rubbery for a second. Odd. All of this is leading me to believe that Rex won't wait for them to induce me at week 40. Of course I'm wishing away the last few days like everyone does, but there's definitely been a recent change. The obstetrician has said they won't let me go past 40 weeks, but since the baby isn't ginormous they won't need to induce me early. I'm looking forward to not testing my blood 4 times a day and having an injection twice a day. Also the whole food limitation thing. In fact, I'm dying for a laksa. That may be the first place we take the bub! That or chocolate. Actually I made an iced coffee today, with decaf instant coffee & only one teaspoon of sugar & it didn't make my sugar level go off the charts the way Moove or Dare does. Yum!
