Week 38
How far along? 38 weeks, 2 days
Baby is the size of a: Pumpkin.
Mmmmm I already want pumpkin everything.
Total weight gain:
More than enough.
Maternity clothes? My shirts
aren’t really covering my whole belly anymore and there’s no way I’m buying
more at this point
Stretch marks? I
think I might have one on my left hip?
Sleep: I got up a few times last night, but I’m so tired that I always fall
right back asleep after going to the bathroom.
Best moment this week: Seeing our baby on the ultrasound yesterday! He’s
healthy and head down and ready to go!
Miss Anything? Not wondering
if I’m going to pee myself right before I sneeze, being able to bend over to
pick something up without triggering a BH, walking at a decent pace without
waddling, wearing cute clothes, and of course, margaritas. Mama needs a drink.
Movement: He’s sleeping
a lot through the day, but he must know when I start getting worried, because
he’ll always give me some reassuring movement to make me feel better.
Food cravings: Pizza!
Anything making you queasy or sick: Still beef!
Gender: Boy!
Labor Signs: A little cramping in my lower abdomen from time to
time.
Symptoms: Back
pain, pelvic pain, lightning crotch, reflux, sore feet, leg cramps, and
IRRITABILITY. Dang it, hormones.
Belly Button in or
out? In
Wedding rings on or off? Off.
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy, but the slightest thing will make me
mad or burst into tears. It’s really annoying.
Looking forward to: That moment when it’s
finally time to go to the hospital. The suspense is killing me!
