How far along: 38 weeks
Total weight gain: 30 pounds
Maternity clothes: For bottoms I have one pair of maternity jeans that i finally caved and bought at 30 weeks (i thought it was a waste of money to wear for such a short time, but they've gotten their use out of them!!) or i'll wear leggings...and for tops anything that will fit comfortably over the belly and is long enough to cover... my favorite thing to wear is a large pj t-shirt, yoga pants, and flip-flops (all other shoes are super tight but i'm hoping its from my feet swelling and not that they grew in size)
Stretch marks: no...count my blessings!
Sleep: Terrible! I do sleep through the night but wake up a lot feeling uncomfortable...either my left leg feels numb/dead or his bum is up in my ribs making it difficult to breathe
Best moment of this week: the 38 week ultrasound we had today. we got to see his cute little side profile one last time before i can stare at it all day everyday!!! not in a creepy way
Miss anything: sleeping on my stomach and waking up after 9 hours of sleep and feeling rested and energized
Movement: yes! now that i know exactly the position he is laying he definitely sticks his bum out a lot...he must have his dad's cute "bubble butt"
Food cravings: everything and anything that has no nutritional value...i haven't wanted any fruits or vegs lately but loving all junk/sweets...i only have a little longer to feel ok about eating like crap so i'm sucking it all up
Anything making you queasy or sick? no
Have you started to show yet? obviously. one of our neighbors said to me the other day, "You look like you're going to pop!" that's the first comment i've had like that, but i appreciate the honesty because that's how i feel
Belly button in our out: when i looked at it today it looked like it has popped out as far as it can possibly go
Wedding ring on or off: on. it's always been a little big for my finger so now that my hands are swollen it fits perfectly and is a little tough to get off when putting lotion on my hands
Happy or moody most of the time: moody. i'm in the stage where i'm totally over being pregnant and ready to be cuddling him already. but i can't complain because these past 9 months have been a breeze for me and i'm so lucky that my body has been able to handle the pregnancy so well
Looking forward to: our check-up with the dr tomorrow and the anticipation of baby cooper arriving. i just want to know where i'll be/what i'll be doing when i start to experience labor signs. i'm hoping the contractions come first and not the water breaking but no such luck there!
