I really can't believe it's almost baby's due date, but at the same time I am ready to meet this little gal/guy!
So far I've only felt minor cramping in terms of contractions, and my midwife said that I'll probably end up going past my due date, which is fine, as long as it's not two whole weeks past :)
I'm still going to the gym four or five times a week, mostly for walking in the cool building, and because they have a bathroom since I can barely make it through my whole 45 minute walk without needing to go.
This week I've been able to get quite a bit done for school, which will be so nice once school actually starts.
How far along: 38 Weeks
Gender: It's a baby! I'm getting super anxious to know if it's a boy or a girl.
Weight gain: About 27 pounds
Maternity clothes: Definitely. And the shirts are getting to short now that my bump has dropped a bit and continues to grow.
Stretch marks: Yes. Major bummer.
Belly button in or out: Out, you can see it through my shirts now.
Sleep: Alright. I typically only have to get up once if I get up at all. But I wake up really early and just can't fall back to sleep.
Best moment this week: Our appointment yesterday. I love hearing baby's heartbeat.
Worst moment this week: Being tired and achy. My joints are starting to hurt if I stay in one position for too long.
Miss anything: Being able to get up without moving super slowly.
Movement: Yup! And it hurts. Baby has been super active at night and it's powerful movements!
Cravings: Sweet things.
Queasy or sick: Feeling good
Looking forward to: A relaxing weekend. And hopefully some thunderstorms, though I doubt we will actually get any down in the valley.
