39 Weeks (almost!)

How far along? 38 weeks, 6 days

Total weight gain/loss: Staying at 26 lbs!

Pregnancy Symptoms: I have baby parts stuffed in my ribs.

Maternity clothes? My shirts don't fit, my pants are tight and the only thing that seems to fit right are socks. Do you think I can just walk around in undies and socks from now on?

Stretch marks? No.

Sleep: I get very little between the peeing every hour and a half and the rib pain.

Best moment this week: That will come tomorrow when we finally meet her!

Movement: She doesn't move as much as she used to. I feel hiccups a lot and she rolls a bit. But, there's really no room left for her.

Food cravings: Hot fudge sundae with mint chocolate chip ice cream. My fantabulous husband made it for me yesterday. I love him!

Gender: Girl

Belly Button in or out? Still in.

What I miss: Seeing my feet.

What I am looking forward to: Tomorrow!

Milestones: Nothing can beat meeting her tomorrow!

37 Weeks (and 3 days...)

How far along? 37 Weeks, 3 days

Total weight gain/loss: Still hanging out around 25 to 26 pounds!

Pregnancy Symptoms: I think I have them all.

Maternity clothes? Maternity clothes? They no longer fit over my belly. I spent most of my time in Rob's long sleeve tee shirts and sweats. Except for the days when I have to take my picture.

Stretch marks? No.

Sleep: My body is getting ready for the waking in the night. I get up at least every two hours to make my run to the bathroom.

Best moment this week: Getting to full term! My OB said that she can come anytime now!

Movement: She moves a lot and it's beginning to hurt. She is pretty much out of room. At all hours, she's up in my ribs and waaaaaaayyyyyy down low causing all sorts of discomfort.

Food cravings: Hot Cocoa, Raisinets, Chicken Parmesan Calzones from the local pizza house, jalapeno poppers. Hmmmm. I think that's it.

Gender: Girl

Belly Button in or out? Still in.

What I miss: The ability to walk without pain.

What I am looking forward to: Her birthday.

Milestones: Full term is a pretty big accomplishment, so I'll go with that.

36 Weeks!

How far along? 36 Weeks

Total weight gain/loss: 26 lbs. My weight has stayed the same for the last two weeks.

Pregnancy Symptoms: Major pelvic pain.

Maternity clothes? I bought a Maternity Support Band from Motherhood last week. It really helps hold her up. Seriously, she's really low, but you can't tell in the picture because I have the support band on.

Stretch marks? No.

Sleep: Yes. At night and naps during the day!

Best moment this week: Getting a pedicure. Now, ask me the worst moment. Getting a bikini wax. O_O Ouch!!!

Movement: She's very active. Her head is engaged, but she moves the rest of her body back and forth. Plus, elbows, knees and feet stick out in all sorts of places.

Food cravings: Seeing that we're snowed in today, I pretty much want any kind of takeout that we can't get to.

Gender: She had better still be a girl - I have a lot of cute clothes for her!

Belly Button in or out? Still in.

What I miss: Coughing without feeling like she's trying to make her way out.

What I am looking forward to: The 37 week mark next week. 6 days 'til full term!

Milestones: First trip to L&D over the weekend since I thought I was leaking amniotic fluid. Got checked out and everything's fine. Love our hospital - they were so patient with the crazy pregnant lady!
