How far along: 39 weeks...I can't believe it!
Baby Size: a watermelon according to The Bump. Maternity clothes: Yup except for a few regular dresses that I can still wear. Stretch marks: No, I don't think so. My cousin said you can still get them though after you have the baby sooooo fingers still crossed that they stay away!! We'll see... Sleep: Not the greatest but could also be worse. Gender: I think we've covered this... Movement: Still lots of movement. Looking forward to: Getting this burst of energy everyone talks about that you supposedly get right before you go into labor. I certainly could use some extra energy these days!!!! Food cravings: toast (from a loaf of homemade REAL bread) with butter and homemade strawberry jam sounds sooo dang good to me!! I knew I should have stopped at Great Harvest Bread Co when I drove by it this morning :) Weirdest food I ate this week: Nothing weird Anything making you queasy or sick: Not really - mornings are still rough but that's been the case for a while now so nothing new. Labor Signs: I went to the doctor today - I'm 90% effaced, 1 cm dilated, and baby's head is 'right there'. Oh, and having lots of BH contractions. What I miss: Oh my gosh let's not go there this week...seriously. Let's try focusing on the positives... Symptoms: Officially waddling...ridiculous amount of pressure since this baby is so freakin' low...a much fuller face/legs/butt (hey...keepin' it real here kids!)... Nursery: Almost complete (or as complete as it's going to be.) We just need to hang up the prints and we'll be good to go (I think...I HOPE...) Belly Button in or out?: Still a half outtie - not nearly as sensitive as it was last week though, which is nice. Wedding rings on or off?: On! Workouts: I'm still aiming for 5 times a week. I had to promise the lady at the front desk, though, that I wouldn't give birth there ha-ha Things that suck: being so torn about having this baby! I'm clearly over being pregnant and just want this kid out...but on the other hand, there's still so much I'd like to get done before he gets here. So, as much as I want him out, I also want him to stay in so this mommy and daddy to-be can get more stuff done!!! Things that don't suck: having an awesome husband, family, and friends.
