38 Weeks

 

How far along? 38 Weeks
Total weight gain: up about 30 pounds (and I'm okay with that...I know it will suck to lose, but it seems reasonable). 
Maternity clothes? oh yeah! During the week, I wear my maternity khaki pants to work and then come home and put on leggings or pajama pants.  On the weekends, I usually wear leggings with a cute, tunic top or otherwise...and now that it's been warmer I have a few skirts and dresses that I'm adding in.  
Stretch marks? yes - over it. The only person who sees them is me and Rob - so if we don't think they are a big deal, then who cares?!
Sleep: not terrible this week, but I have been more tired than ever - so this might be a factor in that.
Best moment this week: Hearing that the baby is doing great and still growing at the doctor on Monday...soaking up the two weeks of being pregnant...sitting in glider in the nursery a lot just imagining when our baby will be in the crib...and celebrating two years of being married to Rob!

Miss Anything? not really....but I do think a lot about having subway and diet coke :)
Movement: oh yes he is active as ever! I notice it more so in the evenings still...but that is probably because I'm running around all day.
Food cravings: chocolate milk (still), strawberries, and sweets (cookies, pies, pretty much any of it)
Anything making you queasy or sick: nope!
Gender: boy

Labor Signs: Nope. A few weird stomach movements but otherwise I get the feeling that this baby boy is pretty cozy in there...  Rob also put some garbage bags down under the fitted sheet on the bed this week just in case my water breaks (I know it's not that likely) because I don't want to ruin the mattress.
Symptoms: lots of heartburn and I can't really stay on one side while sleeping for too long because my hips start to hurt.  Swollen feet this week too (because the weather brought some 80 degree sunshine)...and my fingers sometimes hurt to bend in the morning...so weird!
Belly Button in or out? out
Wedding rings on or off? off :(

Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy & EXCITED to say the least!
Looking forward to:  His arrival!
