Total weight gain: up about 30 pounds
Maternity clothes? I think I just lived in my black leggings, pajama pants, and black maxi skirt this week. I'm getting a little sick of just being able to choose from such a small portion of clothes in my closet.
Stretch marks? yes
Sleep: definitely sleeping good on the nights when we do a lot of walking in the evening (which was almost every night this week). However, I was so sleepy this weekend and taking lots of small naps....which makes it difficult to fall asleep in the evening. So I try not to nap but then I just get cranky!
Best moment this week: Hearing baby boy's heartbeat this past Monday (142) - and knowing that he is still doing good in there! Feeling good about our decision not to induce today (Sunday)...we'll just see what the doctor says Monday and move forward. Rob and I are just doing a lot of hanging out together...enjoying these last few days as a family of 2.
Miss Anything? generally just being comfortable...
Movement: yes! I will probably miss glancing down and seeing my stomach do a little dance in the evenings
Food cravings: this week I really wanted guacamole...And a sub...And chocolate chip cookies - I might have had 2 out of 3 of those!
Anything making you queasy or sick: nope!
Gender: It better be a boy!
Labor Signs: Sadly no - I'm dilated almost 4 cm and effaced about 80% as of last Monday...but my uterus is not contracting yet. Just trying to be patient!
Symptoms: The heartburn is sticking around...swollen fingers seem to be present almost everyday too - I'm down to about 3 pairs of shoes that are comfortable also!
Belly Button in or out? out
Wedding rings on or off? off :(
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy & anxious to get things moving! I'm sick of every person I know asking if I'm in labor when I call them. I'm sick of the stares and comments etc. And I literally just had to smile through my annoyance yesterday when a women asked me "just one?" Yeah lady, just one - go away.
Looking forward to: Meeting him, holding him, and loving on our new baby boy!!
