38 weeks...?

no chalkboard picture this week... we had a perfect little early surprise on sunday morning.

37 weeks

How far along? 37 weeks

Maternity clothes? yes - but not in this picture! 

Sleep: i get up multiple times a night ... comfort is a thing of the past 

Best moment this week: knowing he'll be here NEXT WEEK!

Miss anything? an adult beverage  << yep. that.

Movement: yep, still moving in there

Food cravings: nothing really. food hasn't sounded as disgusting the past few days but i'm not really WANTING anything either. << still this. 

Anything making you queasy or sick: not really baby related, sinus crap because of our weather that can't make up its mind and is messing with my ears. not cool.

Gender: boy

Labor signs: random contractions. nothing consistent.

Symptoms: still these, ESPECIALLY the sore hips. yowsa. >> heavy belly, sore back, sore hips, waddling, restless legs and arms, have to go to the bathroom all. the. time. uncomfortable pretty much all over.

Belly button in or out? flat ... less out and more flat. i think because he's DEFINITELY dropped. 

Wedding rings on or off? on

Happy or moody most of the time: pretty happy although i'm uncomfortable...trying to not complain too much!

Blood sugar: doing well, my insulin need has dropped a little, dr awesome made some adjustments today - lowered basals overnight (been waking up with lows in the middle of the night and the morning) and lowered boluses for meals. hopefully it's the magic combo for the last week. :) 

Looking forward to: meeting him next week!! ALREADY?! it seems like it's been forever away the whole time and now, ohemgee it's almost time! 

36 weeks

How far along? 36 weeks

Maternity clothes? yes 

Sleep: i get up multiple times a night ... comfort is a thing of the past ;) 

Best moment this week: his nursery is DONE. and my husband and i had a nice long holiday weekend together - one of the last of those we'll have that is just the two of us! 

Miss anything? an adult beverage  << yep. that.

Movement: yep, still moving in there

Food cravings: nothing really. food hasn't sounded as disgusting the past few days but i'm not really WANTING anything either.

Anything making you queasy or sick: not really ... but he is getting so big that some of his movements make me a little nauseous.

Gender: boy

Labor signs: contractions here and there, but according to the OB, there's no progress. he'll likely stay put until i'm induced.

Symptoms: still these >> growing heavy belly, sore back, sore hips, waddling, restless legs and arms, have to go to the bathroom all. the. time. uncomfortable pretty much all over.

Belly button in or out? flat/out

Wedding rings on or off? still on

Happy or moody most of the time: pretty happy although i'm uncomfortable...trying to not complain too much!

Blood sugar: still doing well, it seems like the end of pregnancy and level blood sugar is a winning combo for me.

Looking forward to: i think this can just stay the standard 'meeting our baby' answer now.
