Baby size: 19-22 inches long, 6.5 lbs (about the size of a Watermelon)
Maternity clothes: I am pretty much living in Daniels shorts when we are home and only dress up if I have to go out. It is hot and I am slightly uncomfortable so the shorts are the best.
Stretch marks: None that I can see, hooray!
Sleep: I have had a bad cough the past couple of nights which has been horrible for me and bad for Daniel as well. Most nights I get up and go to the bathroom only to come back to bed and cough for a half an hour. Then I go to baby girls room to read until I get really sleepy. Then I come back to bed and hopefully sleep the rest of the night. Daniel is usually awake during most if not all of this. I apologize to him in the morning though because I just feel so bad.
Gender: Girl!
Best moment this week: Ordering last minute baby needs and getting tons of packages! I feel like we finally have all the basics and more.
Looking forward to: Seeing what happens over the next two weeks. I feel lots of anticipation now because I am so close to the end and any day could be the day, but I also feel totally relaxed that I still haven't done everything on my "to do list before baby comes" because I am not expecting anything crazy to happen anytime soon.
What I miss: Laying on my tummy. I don't sleep on my stomach or anything but I guess I use to flop down on the bed on my stomach because I really miss that. I look forward to going to the bedroom when I am exhausted and just flopping on the bed instead of doing a nice and easy awkward roll.
Movement: It seems good. I can definitely feel more defined arms, legs, feet when she pushes out on my stomach which I think is so cool.
Food cravings: Fruit, pancakes, water.
Aversions: Nothing really. Sometimes things just don't taste good. I go between being starving and eating tons to having no appetite. It is kind of weird.
Nursery: It's got a lot of stuff in it and really just needs to be organized someday. It is pretty much done though and I really love it!
Overall: I feel pretty good overall. Some days I am tired and lazy. Other days I have lots of energy and I seem to be able to get a lot done. I still can't really believe that baby will be here soon. It is just unreal to me. Daniel is ready for baby to get here. I am too.
Miscellaneous: The doctor says baby girl's head is really low. I feel like everything is just normal which is great. Here's an updated picture of me at 38 weeks!
It's so fun to see you pregnant! You look amazing!
