As of yesterday, I am 39 weeks pregnant, and Baby Boy is officially uncomfortable to carry.  I feel like all I do is eat, pee, sleep, and roll around.  I have finally crossed the line where I am excited to meet my son and looking forward to no longer being pregnant. One evening I was having more Braxton-Hicks contractions than usual.  They weren’t in any pattern, but there sure were a lot of them.  I remembered that 3 things I can do to see if they are the real deal or not is to empty the bladder, drink lots of water, and lie down.  They didn’t stop until I went to bed, so I guess lying down helped in this case.
