Week Thirty Six!

Weekly update!

How far along?: 36 weeks, 2 days

Weight gain/loss: not exactly sure. more than 10 but less than 15. my goal was 15 which apparently I'm going to surpass :( This I don't give a crap what I eat probably won't help lol

Symptoms: lots of contractions/Braxton Hicks, pressure and some swelling.

Gender: Unsure and getting ridiculously excited to find out!

Sleep?: pretty crummy but at least I'll be prepared for the lack of sleep I'm about to get with a newborn :)

Best moment this week?: making it to full term!!

Movement: starting to run outta room so although maybe the movement isn't necessarily stronger or more frequent, it sure feels that way.

Food cravings/aversions: nothing major - just wanting to eat in general, I guess.

What I miss?: being able to be stand and walk without contractions

What I am looking forward to?: our ultrasound on the 20th

Size of Baby: Your baby is still packing on the pounds — at the rate of about an ounce a day. She now weighs almost 6 pounds (like a crenshaw melon) and is more than 18 1/2 inches long.

What I’m nervous about: 1. having to be in this much discomfort for potentially 4 more weeks 2. not being able to determine when it's real labor vs. these BH/contractions.
