How far along? 36 Weeks - we are officially in the 9th month!
Size of Baby: Honeydew (19 inches long, over 5.5-6.5 pounds)
Waist: 43 in! 1.5 larger around the waist since last week, makes the total weight gain sound much better!
Total weight gain: 28 pounds...I seem to be packing on the weight!
Maternity clothes? Oh yea!
Stretch marks? No new ones.
Sleep: Half the sleep was really good, half was crap. I think my body was just so exhausted at the beginning of the week. Thankfully that allowed me some decent sleep. But towards the end of the week, not so much. I can no longer lay on my back (which is already not a good position for baby anyway). I have so much pelvic pressure in that area, it is very painful!
Best moment this week: Going to the doctors and finding out I am already 2 cm dilated and getting to see the baby again unexpectedly.
Miss anything? Being able to fit in clothes.
Movement: Some movements are starting to hurt! When he kicks out to the side, its very uncomfortable.
Food cravings: Nothing in particular.
Anything making you queasy or sick: Nope.
Gender: Boy!
Labor signs: Braxton Hicks contractions.
Symptoms: Still have bad pelvic pressure due to Baby being so low. Everyone is picking up on the waddling now! I get very comfortable very fast, usually sitting down. At my desk at work especially, but basically I can't sit for a long time and not feel pain.
Belly button in or out? Out.
Wedding rings on or off? On.
Happy or moody most of the time: Happy
Looking forward to: Meeting our little guy!
Fact: During week 36, your baby's most important job is to keep putting on weight. Actually, that's his primary job from now until delivery.
