36 Weeks

April 18, 2011

(sorry, my picture files are SO BIG and I rarely resize them so they come out blurry on blogger.)

How far along?  36 weeks (what...only 4 weeks.  ahhhhhhh!)

Baby size:  Around 6 lbs (crenshaw melon?) and over 18 in long.

Total weight gain/loss:  I'll know at my next appointment tomorrow.  It was +16

Maternity clothes?  Yes, but it just depends.  Right now I'm wearing all non maternity clothes.

Sleep:  I still sleep very hard! 

Best moment this week:  My last shower was fun :)


Movement:  Still some jabs every now and then that hurt but now less hurting and just more bumps and stretches.

Food cravings:  eh...none this week

What I miss:  hmm...bending over with ease.  Anything with ease.

What I am looking forward to:  Well, it all seems to be flying by so right now I'm looking forward to enjoying the last few weeks.

Milestones:  I'm now in my 9th month and at the end of this week I'll be considered full term...hmm...am I ready for all of this???

Pregnancy Symptoms: Thirst, when I stretch in the morning I get calf cramps, BH contractions, occasional ligament and ab pain, strange hot/cold nerve sensation that goes down my right leg when I stand up and a very tired right leg sometimes, heart palpitations, hot at night, occasional low pressure and sharp or crampy pain...nothing new.

Stretch Marks: Not one!

Belly button: My innie is still hanging on. I don't know how much longer it can last really.

Woo for almost full term!! You look so good Emily! Have you tried stretching your legs with your foot flat? I find that it doesn't give me the calf cramps like a pointed toe stretch does.

Whoop! Congrats on the no stretch marks! Very exciting!

I dont know if this will help but bananas really help with cramps...

Have a happy Monday!

Congrats on making it to the end! I held onto my innie till the last two months -- and then well, it was pretty obvious. :)

You can do this. And savor and enjoy these last weeks. :)

Wow...I feel like I was just reading your announcement about Miss Georgia! I'm sure you and Jonathan are more than ready...whether you feel like it or not! She will be so blessed to have you all as her mommy and daddy! Hope you keep feeling well!

I went into labor and delivered at 36 weeks (a couple weeks ago now)...so it could be any time! Have fun with the last month :)
