How far along? 38 Weeks
Weight Gain/Loss: +25.5 lbs (thought I was going to stop gaining, guess not lol. Oh well if it's HER gaining weight Im ok with it)
Maternity Clothes? Yep and now Im literally busting out of them
Symptoms: Occasional heartburn, pelvic pressure, major fatigue.
Best moment this week: Finishing Christmas shopping with my sweet husband.
Food Cravings? Apples and Milk
Gender? Girl
Belly button in or out? Out
Stretch Marks? Some:( I think I do actually have 1 or 2 on my tummy now. I thought they were just veins that were close to the surface but on second glance, I think they might be light stretch marks. Fortunately they havent broken the skin (neither have the ones on my boob, just the ones on my butt), so hopefully once Im done being pregnant they will completely fade out. I was pretty upset when I realized it though because there is a very good chance I may never wear a bikini again now:(
Movement? Yep:) She gets on these random kicks where she moves constantly and then wont move again for a long time. I wish she'd just move a little bit all the time though! These spurts of non movement freak mommy out! Yay again for my trusty fetal doppler.
What Im looking forward to: Going in to labor!!! Im ready for some contractions to start!
Weekly Wisdom: These last 2 weeks of pregnancy are by far the longest 2 weeks EVER. Not because Im uncomfortable, but because I want to meet my girl!
Milestones: Allie can now come any day. Lets go little girl!
Baby Size: Watermellon and 6.5-7 lbs, 19-21 inches long. But again, doc is still estimating a low 6lb baby, so we will see!
Labor Signs: Still sitting at 2cm dilated, 75% effaced, -2 station, lost mucus plug. Started having a few more "painful" contractions this week but still, nothing remotely regular. After all these concerns that my body wanted to go in to labor too quickly it's funny (kindof) that now it doesnt want to do much in the way of making this baby come out haha. Im ready for her to get here though, my anxiety is going through the roof these days.
No so lovely bump pic this week. Ive been exhausted constantly. One day I will wear make up again.
