36 weeks and we hit a small snag

How far along: 36 weeks!

Baby is the size of an: Coconut

Total weight gain:  29lbs eek!

 

Maternity clothes: Yes, having trouble finding shirts that are long enough to cover my belly

 

Stretch marks: Yes but I prefer to think of them as tiger strips and my marks for fighting as hard as we did to get pregnant

 

Sleep: I'm so sleepy almost all the time but sleep only comes in spurts.  We finally got our bedroom to be cool enough for me to sleep at night so that's been more helpful!

 

Best moment of this week: Working on your baby blanket since I have more time now

 

Miss anything: Not having swollen feet, being able to do any sort of activity without getting tired, and wearing my wedding rings.

 

Movement: Yes, we have stretches and rolls!

 

Food cravings: Cookies

 

Anything making you queasy or sick: getting too warm

 

Have you started to show yet: Yes, I'm feeling quite large too

 

Gender: It's a secret

 

Labor signs: I have braxton hicks fairly often but so far no labor

 

Belly button in or out: In

 

Wedding rings on or off: Still off

 

Happy or moody most of the time: Annoyed with the whole bed rest thing and the swollen ankles and the swollen hands and face.  I'm also annoyed that I'm retaining so much fluid!  I seriously gained almost 15lbs in the last month.

 

Looking forward to: Getting to meet you hopefully in the next week or two.
