The End Is Near!

So am now at 37 weeks and it is 4:00 am and can't sleep. oh the joys of pregnancy! It hasn't been too awful, but I think the 2nd trimester is the best. I was oh so very sick during the entire first trimester, but started feeling better around week 14-15. Zofran is an amazing drug-even if everyone thinks it could cause birth defects. Baby didn't mind it one bit! We did find out that we are having ONE (much to the Frenchman's disappointment) baby Boy (much to the Frenchman's surprise- he was convinced it was a girl).
We are on the home stretch now, and my blood pressure has been slowly creeping up and at my appointment today it was REALLY high so off to labor and delivery I was sent to be monitored. All my lab work came back normal which is good, but I am now officially on bed rest- which isn't as much fun but am kinda looking forward to having some time off before the baby shows up. We are secretly hoping that we can convince the doctor to give us a firm induction date at our next appointment- this way I can maximize my time off being with the baby and not just incubating him.
