39 Weeks!


How far along?: Thirty-nine weeks!
Baby is the size of: A baby. A fully cooked and ready to be born baby!
Total weight gain/loss: +37
Symptoms: Insane swelling in my feet and legs, every footstep hurts. Crampiness throughout the afternoons. 
Food Cravings: Key Lime Pie, Pecan Sandies, assorted sweet things.

Anything Making Me Queasy or Sick: Just taking my pills. I can't bear the smell/taste anymore. 
Sleep: Eh... it's okay. I thought it would be worse at this point, honestly.
What I miss: I'm going to stick with being a broken record and cry for soft serve...
Wedding rings on or Off: Off.

Movement: Still have a 3AM dance party, but during the rest of the day the movements are a little less strong since the baby is so far towards my back. I occasionally feel little feet floating to the top though. 
Maternity Clothes? I've given up completely. I wear whatever doesn't constrict me, regardless of whether that means my belly hanging out the bottom or going to the store in pajamas. 
Labor Signs: Not really, but I'm wishing for them! 
Best Moment of the Week: My Mom is here, so I feel ready for the baby to make it's appearance!

How far along?: Thirty-seven weeks!
Baby is the size of: Um... I forgot. 
Total weight gain/loss: +33
Symptoms: Incredible swelling in my feet and legs.
Food Cravings: Potatoes.

Anything Making Me Queasy or Sick: My prenatals! Uck.
Sleep: Not as bad as I thought it would be at this stage. 
What I miss: Soft serve ice cream. *sniff*
Wedding rings on or Off: Off.

Movement: Every day at 3AM, it goes crazy. I get other random movements throughout the day, but that's the Crazy hour.
Maternity Clothes? I'm down to three or four things that sort of awkwardly still "fit".
Labor Signs: Not really.
Best Moment of the Week: Maternity photoshoot! My swelling was crazy but I still got some photos I love.
