February 29

Not much going on with me progress wise. I'm officially full term today! 37 weeks. 8 days until my scheduled c-section, 3 weeks until my due date. I'm no longer on bedrest but physically I'm not capable of much, my body is so weak from not using it so long and from being so far along that I'm tired out and winded very quickly, and start getting painful pressure, contractions and swollen feet if I'm up long so I may as well still be on bedrest I can't really get anything done anyway. Tired of being pregnant, I want her to come out now. I had a bad spell of regular contractions about 3 minutes apart for several hours on Wednesday, which of course stopped when we went to the hospital. Figures, right? After so long fighting so hard to keep her in there it's surreal to accept she can come out and really be wanting her to come out right now so bad.

Will is refusing to eat again, taking only tiny amounts if you hand feed him and holding out waiting for the sippy. So we have to make sure he's not getting the sippy right after meals, he can just be hungry a while until he decides to stop waiting for the sippy and eat his food. Like an older kid not eating their dinner because they're saving all the space for dessert. We have to re-train him like this to eat again every few weeks, getting annoying, I'm too big, grouchy and uncomfortable to be hunched over picking up after him and trying to come up with a new magic trick to make him eat right now but it has to be done. I think he senses the change coming, he's been more clingy the last few days, wanting to sit on my lap and hang out with me which isn't usually like him. One molar is cut through, the other 2 are still points but it all seems to be bothering him less and he's experimenting with chewing.
