How far along? 37 Weeks, that means I've got a full term baby in there :)
Total weight gain: 33ish
Maternity clothes? Yes, I'm getting big.
Stretch marks? No new ones
Sleep: Waking up every 2-3 hrs.
Best moment this week: Finding out Baby Hine is head down and unlikely to move from that place! Also, getting to hang out with the girls and Joe last weekend, and seeing the Hersels.
Miss Anything? Tim. This week was especially rough, with it being 6 whole months. There were lots of tears shed, but I am so sure that he is doing amazing things in heaven!
Movement: So much lately! Especially during the day.
Food cravings: Toast with peanut butter and jelly, fruit
Food aversions: OJ and tea, still chicken sometimes
Gender: Don't know, and won't know until the day the bean arrives! Which is soon...eek!
Labor Signs: Nope...maybe a few Braxton Hicks?
Symptoms: Tired, really sore hips when I walk, shortness of breath, super emotional, heartburn, sore back, pretty sure I'm waddling.
Belly Button in or out? Pretty much out
Wedding rings on or off? On.
Looking forward to: Photo shoot with 47 Moments tomorrow, church baby shower, seeing Colleen and Janie, and going to my last birthing class! Also, continuing to get ready.
Feelings? A bit in disbelief that I am almost at the end. Sad, angry, excited, anxious, scared, etc.
I met with the back up doula and the regular doula this week. They are amazing and I am looking forward to working with them. The doula I chose told me she sent my birth plan up to L&D and made sure all the nurses have read it. Also, the back up doula and I had a lot of coincidences - such as knowing a common (random) person, and that her son passed away from a car accident, and his name just so happens to be Tim. Crazy.
Baby Hine is doing well and growing like crazy, thankfully in the head down position and not breech which I am so grateful for. I can't believe that in absolutely no more than 5 weeks we get to meet this little one.
Today at 37 weeks
Last Saturday at 36 weeks, 1 day
