So I had my 39 week appt yesterday at 9 am. Everything looks good. I am measuring 40 cm and she said baby looks incredibly big. She is estimating that the baby weighs around 8.5 lbs right now. The heartrate was 130 and she was a little concerned that it had dropped so much in one week (It was in the 150's last week), so she sent us to the hospital for a NST. Everything went great though, seems the baby was just sleeping or something because at the hospital her heartrate was fine and she was all over the place the entire time. The midwife said that she doesn't want me going over 41 weeks so we will induce if that happens. I think she will be here within the next week so I'm not too worried about that.
I also had my consultation for a tubal. The doc said that they can do it the day the baby is born which scares me hehe. I thought it wouldn't be done until 6 weeks postpartum. The main thing that worries me is being away from the baby while they do the surgery and I wake up from the anesthesia. I told DH to keep the baby with him while I go and hopefully if I nurse her before I go she will be ok until I get back.
That's about it, it's just a waiting game now.

I think I would want it done well after bfing is established since the anaesthetic can make baby sleepy.
