This morning my BP was even a little higher than yesterday (~143/86), so I'm a tad bit concerned, but not overly so. I will keep an eye on it though and possibly talk to the midwife at next Tuesday's appointment about trying to stimulate labor maybe a little earlier. We'll see how things go over the next few days. I have been having Braxton Hicks contractions really often lately. It seems like I get them constantly sometimes. I really hope they are making me progress!
Yesterday I had a couple of emotional breakdowns early in the day, but the day ended really well, so that was wonderful! I'm really trying to enjoy and focus on each day, but sometimes my emotions get the best of me. I guess it's not surprising since my hormones are probably raging and I'm not getting as much sleep lately. This morning I woke up at 5am and couldn't get back to sleep. Not nearly as bad as Tuesday night, but it's still going to take a bit of a toll on me. Unfortunately, Paul seems to be getting a sinus infection, so he really needs to rest and try to fight it off. That would suck if he were sick when I go into labor! Not to mention if he ends up getting me sick. So let's hope he starts feeling better over the next few days.
So, we have at most 2 weeks left to go. Not too bad, but I will be happier when it's only 1 week away :) These days sure do go by slowly. Unless Brooke comes earlier than my induction date, it will be a long wait. Believe me, it's not going to fly by.

Hooray for reaching full-term status! I wish the next 9 days would hurry up so I could say the same! Hang in there...the prego hormones and lack of sleep definitely take their toll, but you're almost there! I've been checking your blog on a daily basis, and now I think I'll check multiple times a day for updates just in case :)
