7weeks to go

Today marks the start of week 33 in my pregnancy.  The books and www.thebump.com say baby should be about the size of a honeydew melon.  Interesting little tid bit huh?  It was also said that she should be about 17inches and grow another inch by the end of the week.  We'll see I guess.  Anywho, I had a doctors appointment, I'm now visiting every 2 weeks.  It was just a quick routine visit, weight, pee, bp, heartrate (baby's) and fundal height.  Everything looked clear and good to go.  The doctor felt around my tummy to find my little button & she's still more towards the left... truth be told, she's probably still in the same position as she was at 30 weeks.  I guess in 2 weeks I'll ask my favorite DR what he thinks about her not moving into "birthing position" although I'm sure I can guess the answers.  Route 1, we try to move her and there's a big chance she'll return to previous position... or Route 2, C-section.  Out of the two, I think I'm leaning more towards a c-section.  I've read up tons on the procedure the doctors use to turn the baby, plus methods you can do at home and nothing is definite.  Whatever, as long as she gets here healthy and soon.  I'm tired of waiting to see her little face and who she looks like and even though its been easy, I'm tired of being pregnant.  We have quite a few more things to buy, I'm trying to decide whether I want to wait until Cam comes home or order now.  Oh and then theres wading through items that may or may not be necessary.  I bought $63 worth of headband/beanie making materials today for Saige too.  I'm so excited and get to be crafty at the same time.  I wish I could find some more baby booties for cheap too... which I think I may have.  I'm going to start taking it easy around here... my body is wore out.  My mind still runs a mile a minute all day and I have all the ambition in the world but no drive.  The doctors said its just because I'm at the end of the pregnancy and its been hot, I could take some iron supplements if I want but they're not concerned.  I mean I was exhausted going down the stairs to the practice today and walking up them was like a battle against gravity.  So Saige, we're ready... come on baby!
