How far along: 37 weeks and 4 days

Gender: It’s a GIRL!

Weight Gain: +30 pounds

Maternity Clothes: Who knew that my maternity shirts could turn into belly shirts? Good thing my pants have high elastic bands because I refuse to buy anymore maternity clothes.

Stretch Marks: Yes I do. And I am learning to love them and live with them. Way cooler and more meaningful than any tattoo I could ever get.

Belly button in our out: Still an inny. I am pretty sure it will not pop out permanently.

Sleep: What is sleep? Oh that’s right…sleep is what makes my back hurt and every time I do sleep I have to pee.

Best moment of the week: Getting more things finished around the house and finally finishing all of my nursery projects. Now all I need to do is organize baby girl’s room.

Miss Anything: Don’t get me wrong, I love my baby bump, but I really miss getting out of bed and not feeling like I have a bowling ball drop inside of me and weigh down my stomach with no support.

Movement: Oh yes and she has definitely dropped so I am feeling her hiccups in my butt now! She also kicked my arm the other day when I was resting it on her and I could legitimately feel (and see) her foot! Crazy! She apparently can’t wait to get daddy’s famous nightly foot rubs.

Cravings: Crushed ice. I wish there was a Sonic close to us so I could buy some bags of nice ice. Anyone know where else around here has that kind of ice?

Symptoms: …the nausea is coming back! RAWR!!!!!!!!!!!!

Looking forward to: I never thought I would say this, but I am actually looking forward to pushing this fire-breathing dragon angel child out of me.
