How far along? 40 weeks
Total weight gain: 38 lbs
Maternity clothes? Yep.
Stretch marks? Maybe? If so, they're on my sides and very small.
Sleep: Bad. Hips ache when I'm on my side, back and chest hurt when I'm on my back. Basically just really want this child out of me. At least my sleep will then be solid, even if it's only for an hour at a time.
Best moment this week: Ultrasound today!! She's measuring 7lbs 6oz! Come out anytime now little one.
Have you told family and friends? Yes.
Miss Anything? Sleep. Alcohol. My wardrobe.
Cravings? Ice cream :)
Movement? Yeppp! Still not moving down into my pelvis though... ugh.
Anything making you queasy or sick? No
Have you started to show yet? Stupid question.
Gender: It's a girl!
Labor Signs: Basically none. She still is high and not in my pelvis, no cervix change. Have had some contractions here and there but they're fake.
Belly Button in or out? In.
Wedding Ring on or off? Still both.
Looking forward to: Her arrival! Hurry up little one!
Symptoms: Nothing new. Measured 41 weeks on Monday based on my fundal height.
How far along? 39 weeks, officially full term!!!
Total weight gain: 37 lbs. I thought this number was supposed to plateau?! -_-
Maternity clothes? Yep.
Stretch marks? Still think the marks on my side could be stretch marks, haven't changed any though and Andrew still isn't sure. I've showed a few people and they're indifferent also. Maybe its just veins?!
Sleep: Bad. Feels like I've tried everything and I just cannot get comfortable.
Best moment this week: Spending time with Andrew! Trying to soak in our last few days as just the two of us!
Have you told family and friends? Yes.
Miss Anything? SLEEP. I just want to be comfortable for more than 30 minutes...
Cravings? Ice cream :)
Movement? Yes, she's getting stronger, some of her little jabs hurt!
Anything making you queasy or sick? No
Have you started to show yet? Yep.
Gender: It's a girl!
Labor Signs: Have had some contractions, not sure if they are Braxton Hicks or False Labor but either way they suck.
Belly Button in or out? In.
Wedding Ring on or off? Still both.
Looking forward to: Her arrival!!!
Symptoms: Nothing new here to report. Was measuring 40 weeks based on my fundal height at our appointment Monday. Doesn't really mean much, especially since I'm short and all belly so she really has no where to go but out!
How far along? 38 weeks, skipped a week... oops! Too busy getting ready for little one's arrival :)
Total weight gain: 35 lbs... yikes
Maternity clothes? Yep.
Stretch marks? Maybe?! I think there might be the start of one on my right side... It's pretty far back on my side which is so strange to me. But I'm pretty convinced it's the start of one, Andrew isn't so sure. Either way, I hope she arrives before it gets any bigger :)
Sleep: Bad. Just bad.
Best moment this week: Packing her hospital bag (and mine), especially picking out her little outfits and hats!
Have you told family and friends? Yes.
Miss Anything? The usual.
Cravings? Ice Cream! We went to Vanilla Jills with some friends on Sunday and I hadn't tried it since their Coburg location and holy cow it was AMAZING. I got cultered creme fraiche ice cream and sugar free vegan blackberry. To. Die. For. We will definitely be going back ASAP!
Movement? Yep! Lately she is loving pushing on my ribs... ouch!
Anything making you queasy or sick? No
Have you started to show yet? Yep.
Gender: It's a girl!
Labor Signs: I *think* I've had some Braxton Hicks contractions here and there, but Dr checked me on Monday and she is still high up, cervix is thick and closed.
Belly Button in or out? Still in, don't think this bad boy is going to pop out!
Wedding Ring on or off? Both. On during the day, off at night. Mostly just wear my wedding band.
Looking forward to: Her arrival!!!
Symptoms: Pelvic Pain... Oyyy it's bad! Ligaments down there are definitely loosening up, so come on little one, drop down!!!
