Pregnancy // week 38

How far along? 38 weeks. Two weeks till due date! 

Due date: February 9th 2016

Total weight gain/measurements: Weighed in at 136lbs - That's a total of 21lbs gained since pre-pregnancy. 

Maternity clothes: yes! But I'll be happy to be able to wear some regular clothes before too long

Stretch marks? Afew new ones, which is funny since my belly is smaller with baby girl, but she's laying different so that's probably why. 

Sleep: I'm sleeping really good, sleeping through the night, although before I go to bed and when I wake up I have a lot of back pain and Braxton hicks which makes it alittle hard to fall asleep. 

Miss anything? My belly is getting pretty big, and makes it hard to lean over or snuggle Cort, but I'll only be pregnant alittle while longer so trying to enjoy every day! 

Movement: baby girl is still very much of a mover, although she gave me a scare Afew days ago, she went through almost an entire day without kicking at all! And only moving a tiny bit, I was starting to get worried about her and almost went to have her checked on, but then finely that night she started moving around like her usual self! 

Anything making you queasy or sick? Nope!

Gender: Girl! 

 DISCLAIMER: As I get closer to delivering I am going to be sharing some detail about labor and birth and this as a warning in case you don't want to read about it.

Labor signs: I've been having back pain and Braxton hicks, and headaches, and very tired, 

 What the Doctor is saying: I'm 3cm dilated and 75% effaced, My doctor said baby girl is even lower and about -1 station. Making progress! Baby girl is also measuring exactly 38 weeks so that made me glad she's measuring right on again!

Happy or moody most of the time? Happy! But ready to not be pregnant so I can just just snuggle baby girl. 

Looking forward to: my birthday is this week, so that should be fun, plus it's just fun to think that I could possibly have baby girl this week, so this might be a REALLY exciting week.

Pregnancy // week 36

How far along? 36 weeks! ONE week till "full term" and 4 weeks till due date!
Total weight gain: Weighed in at 135 lbs - That's a total of 20lbs gained since pre-pregnancy.

Maternity clothes: yes!

Stretch marks? No new ones this week as far as I can tell.

Sleep: I've been sleeping so great! I sleep through the night basically every night,
I'm so great full! And hoping it continues!

Best moment this week: I'm so happy I've gotten to the "safe zone" to have baby girl! If she was born now it's very unlikely she would need any extra care and would most likely be able to go home right away.

Miss anything? I miss being able to walk around without having Braxton hicks, I'm having them all day long it feels like!
Movement: baby girl is definitely a mover and a kicker! But not as crazy as she used to be, I think she's running out of room.

Anything making you queasy or sick? I had a stomach bug last week so still getting over that.

Gender: Girl

DISCLAIMER: As I get closer to delivering I am going to be sharing some detail about labor and birth and this as a warning in case you don't want to read about it.
Labor signs: Last week I had alittle labor scare, I had Contractions/Braxton hicks for over 7 hours straight, they were 5-10 min apart and lasted about 1/2 a minute, I went in to be monitored and after Afew hours they determined that the contractions weren't progressing me and I should be OK to go home. I was almost 35 weeks and at that time I was 1 cm dilated and 50% effaced, Then the next day I got a stomach bug and wasn't able to keep ANYTHING down even just a sip of water, and then I started having braxton hicks contractions 2 minutes apart for 6+ hours straight, I ended up going to the ER at 2am and got fluids and something for my throwing up, But now I'm feeling much much better, But still having braxton hicks alot during the day, But no REAL contractions.

What the Doctor is saying: Baby girl is measuring at 35cm at 36 weeks, which she says is normal especially for girls. I'm 2cm dilated and 60% effaced and baby girl is head down!

Happy or moody most of the time? Happy!

Looking forward to: Meeting our baby girl anytime in the next few days to 5 weeks! ahhhh the anticipation is killing me :)
