How Far Along: 37 weeks

Size of Baby: From head to heel, a bit over 19 inches!

Total Weight Gain/Loss: I’m up about 23lbs!

Maternity Clothes: I’m mostly in soft shorts and full-panel maternity shorts since everything else seems to cut into the belly when i sit! Boo!

Gender: Hoping & praying the sonogram was right and she’s a girl, because we’ll have a lot of stuff to replace if she’s not!

Movement: Oh yes. Feet in the ribs, head in the bladder. Constantly.

Sleep: I’m not sleeping very well at all. Between sore back, hips and belly and getting up approximately 3409340234 times to pee every night, there’s not a whole lot of sleeping going on.

What I miss: Not swelling in the heat, being able to help my poor husband lift and carry big things (okay, so I feel guilty about that but I don’t really MISS it…Ha!), and wearing my regular clothes!

Cravings: Pumpkin pie, Twizzlers, banana pudding…

Symptoms: Fatigue and lots and LOTS of movement in the belly area (and many, many much less glamorous symptoms as well).

Best Moment this week: Spending a lot of time with James in his last days as an only child. I don’t know if he’s ready to share mommy and daddy, AND I’m not sure I’m ready to have more than one!!
