CAUTION: WIDE LOAD!

So in my last few weeks I have really started poking out! (I am 37 weeks now) I have found that simple tasks have become a chore (sitting up, breathing, shaving my legs, putting socks on, etc.). Not to mention the bloating! I was looking at pictures from a few months ago compared to now, and my face, arms, and legs have all blown up! The water retention in my legs is getting pretty nasty as well. Oh well...3 more weeks at the very most! We did visit the doctor yesterday, and my total weight gain thus far has been 23 pounds, not too terrible. My goal after he comes out is to lose it all plus about 10 more pounds....we'll see how that goes! Right now the doctor is estimating little Tucker weighs about 6 pounds, 1 ounce and has some big old chubby cheeks! That is big enough for him to come out right now, right?! I'll keep you all posted on when this little dude decides to come out. In the mean time, watch out for this wide load!
