| 36 Weeks |
How far along: 36 weeks
Weeks to due date: 4 Weeks!! So close!
Total weight gain: 24 pounds
Maternity clothes: Oh yes! And some of them are getting a little tight.
Sleep: Hmmm well the last couple of
nights have gone like this… Midnight: go pee… 1AM: go pee, get a drink of water
and take some tums… 2:30AM: go pee, get a drink of water, stretch my sciatic
nerve and calves… 4:30AM: you guessed it! Go pee! Eat cereal or fruit, stretch
some more… 7:30AM: Up for the day which starts with a…. Pee! And these are just
the times I got out of bed…
Exercise: Last Sat I finished a 90 day exercise challenge. I reached
my goal of not missing any days so that was a fun accomplishment. I got in 3
cardio days and 1 strength day this last week but I plan on trying to get in 3
cardio and 3 strength this week.
Best moment this week: It has been a great week! First,
we had an appointment on Monday and that went well. My midwife made the comment
on how I’ve really grown the last couple of weeks =) Oh baby!
Then, my dad had
some time off so he came up for a visit.
We also had family pictures taken by
our friend Rachel! Can’t wait to see the rest!
We celebrated our 5 year anniversary on the 7th.
It was a great day! We recreated a pic taken on our Wedding day, ate ice cream
cake, had sparking grape juice and watched Frasier =) It was perfect!
What I miss: Running, sleeping, rolling over easily,
and putting my shoes on easily. I’m sure there is more =) haha! We are so close
now though that all of this will get back to normal and we will have a sweet
little one to cuddle =) The sleep thing probably won’t get easier for a while
though =)
Movement: Lots of movement! The baby has
hiccups at least once a day if not more and seems to enjoy punching me in the
hip and kicking me in the side at the same time =) At least that is what I
assume is happening.
Food cravings: I’ve kind of been on a cereal kick lately.
Making me queasy: I’ve been in an off and on state of queasiness. I
guess those pesky hormones that make you queasy in the beginning of pregnancy
come back towards the end.
Starting to show: I think so!
Gender: We’ll find out soon!
Happy or moody: Both
Things I've been experiencing this
week: It has
been a great week and I have been trying to fill my time waiting for this baby
to come with good distractions =) Coffee dates, play dates, reading, cleaning, napping,
going for walks, and I packed our hospital bags this week. It feels so good to
know that we’re ready for baby. At least as ready as possible…for right now =)
haha!
What I'm looking forward to: The summer season is coming to an
end here at camp and then Andy will have some time off. I’m looking forward to
hanging out and relaxing as a family of 3 before baby comes.
Size of baby: The size of a honeydew
