37 Weeks!!!

How far along are you? 37 Weeks

How big is Baby? 19 to 22 inches long, and roughly 6.5 lbs.

 
Fruit Size? Watermelon

Weight Gain?  Still only have gained about 14lbs.  At the rate I have been gaining, I am sure that its probably 16lbs by now.  I will find out on Friday.

Gender? Girl!!!
   
Maternity Clothes?  All the time.

Stretch Marks?  Only on my hips so far, but I have a feeling there are more in my future!

Sleep?  Finally a little better. I have had a terrible cold all week last week, and wasn't getting any sleep.  I finally got a good solid 6 hours last night.
 
Symptoms?  Have I mentioned how bad my heartburn has been??  Its been terrible.

Movement? Yep, all the time.  She moves around constantly, and I am sure that I will miss all the movement after she is here.  But by that time I will have an outside baby, and I won't care!
 
Food Cravings?  I like Lucky Charms. 


Labor Signs?  My Braxton Hicks have started getting really strong, some of them I actually have to breath through, but nothing consistent.
    
Belly Button in or out? Still in, but I think that's cause I still have my belly button ring in, and I think its keeping my button from popping.

What I miss? This week I miss wine.
    
What I am looking forward to?  Having an outside baby!!!!  
    
Best moment of the week? We have our hospital tour tonight!!! I am so so so outrageously excited!!!!

OH BAD BLOGGER!!!! REALLY REALLY BAD BLOGGER!!!

I've been bad at anything that has resulted in blogging, or being on the board.  I am so wrapped up in life right now, that I feel like I have lost track of time. 

So...... quick update on me.

I am doing really good.  I feel good, I am still working, not as much as before. I am down to 30 hours a week, and I am out of the Video Department.  I am a "full time" checker now.  It's been nice to have the extra time off, to be honest.  We have taken this time to get her room ready.  We have her crib, and dresser ready, and all of her clothes ready.  I had my baby shower that was amazing.  My cousin did a wonderful job.  I got an amazing about of pink stuff.... everything is so freaking pink!!!

Quick update on baby....

Baby has a name... but we will just call her C.  She is growing like a weed, and right on track with her due date.  Dr. L thinks that she will be a perfectly healthy baby.  She doesn't think that C will be a big baby.  But she does think that she may be a little bit early.  Me being on my feet and all.  Something about gravity.... I guess we will see.  She can come early if she wants to, I think we are pretty much ready for her. 

We have started birthing classes a couple weeks ago.  Those are fun, lots of information, but definitely fun.  I am learning a bunch, and I think T is taking in as much as he can with out being overwhelmed.  T is starting to get excited I think.  It may be anxious excitement. 

I am 35 weeks and 1 day.  I officially have 4 weeks and 6 days left.  But whose counting right??

27w1d... Where Did The Time Go???

I am going to try to be a better blogger.  I am going to try really hard.  I feel like I have let everyone down that reads this thing.  And the funny part is, I have never met any of you, I think.  So I will try, very hard, to keep writing. 

How far along are you? 27w1d

How big is Baby? 13.6 to 14.8 inches, and 1.5 to 2.2 lbs

 
Fruit Size? Rutabaga

Weight Gain?  I have officially gained 9 pounds as of my last appointment.  Dr. is pretty happy with this!

Gender? Girl!!!
   
Maternity Clothes?  All the time.

Stretch Marks?  Yea, I have a few, on my hips.

Sleep?  Sleep is good, once I get comfy, some nights that doesn't happen.
 
Symptoms?  I don't really have symptoms anymore.  But people definitely know that I am pregnant.  Can't miss the belly.

Movement? Yep, all the time.

Labor Signs? none, thankfully.  I have been having some Braxton Hick, but Dr. says this is normal.
   
Belly Button in or out? Still in, but really stretched.

What I miss? I miss not being in pain.  My hips are hurting so bad these days that it hurts to walk.

Best moment of the week? Nothing really, I have three days off this week, so relaxing is nice.  But I have lots to do during those three days.
