How far along? 36 weeks, 1 day. What does this mean??? FOUR weeks to go!!!! HOLY WOW. Right now, four weeks feels like a lifetime away and feels like tomorrow at the same time. Weird, hard to describe.
Size of the baby? Almost 6 pounds (although this could vary greatly…considering I was just a little over 6 pounds when I was born at 41 weeks).
Maternity Clothes? SAME.
Stretch Marks? SAME.
Movement? Lots lately, it’s funny now that you can pretty much pinpoint specific body parts (since I know she is head down and hopefully will stay that way) to see her little foot or knee move across my tummy. She’ll poke right back at me if I press down on her. Her daddy loves to do this, aggravating her already.
Sleep? Yeah…that not having to wake up to pee thing? Nonexistent now…I wake up about two or three times a night. Some nights are better than others as far as being comfy/tossing and turning.
Food Cravings? SAME.
What I Miss: Not being achy. I’ve got LOTS of pain/pressure in my back and in other areas…sometimes so much that I wince when turning over in bed. Ready for that to go away.
Symptoms: Had my 36 week checkup yesterday and everything looked good. Doctor said that the baby had dropped some, but no dilation yet…not that I would want it yet/expect it. No contractions lately.
Best Moment of the Week? The CRIB bedding is on the way! YIPPPEEE!!!
* I know it will...but looking at this picture, all I can think about is...how in the WORLD can my belly get any bigger?!? Geesh!
