How far along? 37
weeks (approx 3 more to go!!)
Baby is the size of? A Winter
Melon
Average size: 19.13
inches, 6.3 lbs
Maternity clothes? Almost
exclusively in maternity. Pretty sure I will be growing out of some of the
tops.
Stretch Marks? Nothing
that I can see but I’ll ask the nurse to check at my next appointment.
Sleep: Lots of interruptions/bathroom
breaks.
Best moment this week: Getting
to spend time with my husband. We even went on a date! And meeting my friend
Candace’s new baby.
Miss anything? Sleeping
positions, my favorite drinks, getting off the couch in one step.
Movement: Strong movements.
Sometimes I can feel him stretching out and hiccupping.
Food cravings: Craved
a pumpkin pie blizzard.
Anything make you queasy or sick? Nope.
Gender: Boy
This week’s fetal heart rate: 144
Labor signs: hip
pain, a couple of contractions (nothing regular).
Symptoms: huge stomach,
congestion, and swelling. Surprisingly I’ve probably had more energy the last
two weeks than I have this whole pregnancy (and I probably just jinxed myself)
Belly button in or out? Technically
the belly button is in but the space above my belly button has “popped”.
Wedding rings on or off? Off and
barely fitting into my dad’s wedding band from how swollen I am.
Emotions: I had a very good
week this week. I get annoyed easily but I felt a lot of joy and excitement.
Looking forward to: Seeing
the progression at the doctor’s appointment. Only working 3 days this week!
Woop!
A winter melon (because I had no idea what this was)
