How far along: Almost 38! A little early, but I wanted to do one more post in case I go early.
Total weight gain: So far I've gained 10 total.
Size and growth of the baby: According to the ultrasound he is just over 7 pounds!
Sex: Boy! Re-confirmed by ultrasound the other day :) Calmed my fears of him coming out and being a girl.
Maternity clothes: Everything!
Sleep: Some nights are better than others, but for the most part I am up 3 or 4 times a night.
Best moment(s) of the week: I love seeing his precious face on the ultrasound! I cannot WAIT to see what he is going to look like once he is here :) I also turned 24 this week! And my precious hubby made it pretty special :) love him!
Movement: A lot! Whoever said that movement slows down a lot the last few weeks obviously wasn't pregnant with this child. It is as strong and as often as ever.
Food cravings/aversions: The norm.
Morning sickness: Depends on the day...and what I eat.
Symptoms: Pelvic pain. Pretty sure I waddle now too. A lot of contractions the last few days. My feet are also starting to swell if I am up a lot.
Labor signs: Pelvic pain. Contractions. I am dilated to 2cm and 50%
Belly button in or out: It really depends on the clothes I wear whether you can tell or not, but I am saying its out! And also very painful :/
What I miss: Having a flat stomach and the stuff I can no longer do because my belly is too big. Being able to breathe. There honestly really isn't any "good" pregnancy symptoms this late in the game. I am ready to have him!
What I'm looking forward to: Having this little guy! My doctor doesn't seem to think I will make it to 39 weeks much less 40...I won't mind if he's right :) Our bags are packed and ready!
We're not packed here yet......! You have to wait til we are all ready...no, wait, we will probably "all" never be ready. So, just go ahead and go into labor. We're SO excited to meet him too! Kylea told her teacher today that she is going to be an Aunt any day now!
