How far along are you? 38 weeks.
Total weight gain: 28lbs – I’ve lost since last week.

Sleep: Horrible
Best moment this week: Not feeling guilty about all the turkey and stuff I ate
Miss Anything? Being comfortable
Food cravings: Pancakes
Anything making you queasy or sick: Nothing at all.
Gender: It’s a BOY!!
Labor Signs: Lots but not progressing.
Belly Button in or out? In!
Wedding rings on or off? On… I have a feeling I won’t need to take them off.
Happy or Moody most of the time: Miserable
Looking forward to:  Progressing.. I would say being induced but things are not moving the way they want them to so they can’t induce me yet 😦

37 weeks – Full Term

Leave a comment

I am so excited to have made it to 37 weeks! I know the definition of “full term” has changed and is now 39 weeks but it was 37 for my other pregnancies so I am sticking with it! You have probably noticed the location change of my weekly photo – we got rid of my giant wardrobe to make more room in our room for the bassinet. The wardrobe had the only full length mirror so I have resorted to pictures in the bathroom until I get a new mirror!
