How far along? 38 Weeks
How big is baby? Big, and getting bigger. =) The books say she is the size of a watermelon... Hmmmm...
Total weight gain/loss: Fluid retention still makes this a big question mark, but I'm guessing somewhere between 5 and 10 lbs up total.
Maternity clothes? mostly dresses to stay comfortable in the warmer weather, but even my maternity clothes are getting tight around my expanding belly!
Sleep: Up a couple of times each night, but sleeping pretty well other than that.
Best moment this week: Getting through a full week with no trips to Labor and Delivery! =)
Movement: It is like a dance party in my belly sometimes. She is a big girl and I am feeling it!
Food cravings: none
Food Aversions: none
Gender: All girl!
Labor Signs: regular contractions on an irregular basis. My next prenatal is on Thursday so we'll see if I've made any progress.
Belly Button in or out? In
What I miss: Not feeling guilty when I miss or skip one of my 8 daily pregnancy monitors. I'm done with the effort this is all taking.
What I am looking forward to: Singing with my baby girl.
Weekly Wisdom: You just never know what to expect, so try to keep a smile on your face and trust that everything will be exactly as it should be.
Milestones: I am officially full term! Human gestation is actually 38-42 weeks (hence the average of 40 weeks) so baby girl can come any time now with no worries about her health!
Bump Picture: not this week.
