How far along? 39 weeks
Total weight gain: 11 pounds (after initial loss of 4 pounds: 15 pounds)
Maternity clothes? Yes, of course.
Stretch marks? Starting to get slight ones on my sides. Boo.
Sleep: Ha! What sleep. I don’t look forward to bedtime any more.
Best moment this week: I guess it would be my weekly check up. As of Tuesday, I was 1 cm dilated and 80% effaced…the head is right there.
Miss Anything? Being productive. It’s hard for me to put my feet up and rest. I’m no good at that.
Movement: Indeed. This baby is going to be trouble when he/she starts walking!
Food cravings: Sweets! Haha…but, that’s not the pregnancy, that’s just my sweet tooth calling!
Anything making you queasy or sick: Not really.
Gender: It’s a surprise!
Labor Signs: Braxton Hicks contractions off and on, all day.
Symptoms: Hugeness…is that a symptom? ![]()
Belly Button in or out? It’s out. Hence the photo.
Wedding rings on or off? Off most of the time, but I will put my wedding band on when I go out of the house.
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy and ready!
Looking forward to: Meeting the baby….not the whole labor part.

You’re so stinkin cute! Shouldn’t be long now!!! This was about the time with our first one that it hit me we were really going to have a baby… And I got really nervous about all the upcoming responsibilities. You guys seem so much better prepared than we were. Now, put your feet up and have a Reese’s Cup!!!
Tell your husband to go straight to Godiva and get you all truffled up.
THE BABY’S COMING! YAY! I hope this is the last one of these weekly updates only because I want him/her to get here already.
I’m going to be furiously checking Facebook all this week. I’m so excited for you! (I think I say that in every one of my baby comments, but I can’t help it!)
