38 Week Update

Not much has changed in a week.  As of our checkup on Tuesday, I'm still not dilated but everything is still looking good.  Doc still says that he thinks I'll go past my due date (which is pretty normal for first time pregnancies).  If I do happen to go past my due date, he said he will induce within the week and will not allow me to carry beyond a week past my due date.  That's a relief!
If you asked me a month ago if I thought I would still be pregnant at 38 weeks, I would've told you "NOT A CHANCE, I'll MAKE this baby girl come out no matter what"!  I have to say though... I feel pretty good for being 38 weeks pregnant!  Of course it takes 5 minutes to get off the couch or out of bed, I get a crazy twinge pain around my cervix regularly now, and constipation is back (sorry TMI).... but I've still got energy to get out of the house, go for daily walks, and I'm not severely uncomfortable.
Here's my most recent belly pic.  It feels like Addie has dropped a bit in the last week or so.  I thought I would be able to tell from the picture but can't, maybe you can?
