38 Weeks
How far along? 38 Weeks
Total weight gain/loss: up 30lbs
Maternity clothes? Oh yeah
Stretch marks? No new ones
Sleep: Alright but I'm still having trouble turning my brain off and I wake up sore every morning from having to sleep in odd positions
Best moment this week: Labor day weekend! After working all week I went crazy having a whole 3 days at home to get all of my nesting projects done (although I'm sure I'll find news ones for next weekend). I washed windows, cleaned the house spotless, hung nursery decor, put some meals in the freezer, and worked on a baby blanket
Miss anything? Being comfortable, its getting pretty tough to find a comfortable position to relax in
Movement? Yep, he's still stretching and squirming around in there
Food cravings: Still fruit and sweets. I have fruit with every single meal and as snacks. Strawberries and grapes are my favorites this week
Anything making you queasy or sick? Nope
Gender? Boy
Labor signs?
Symptoms: Same group- minor contractions, rib pain, leg cramps, nesting (big time!)
Belly button in or out? It can almost be considered an outie
Wedding ring on or off? Off
Happy or moody most of the time? Happy! Except when I have a project that I can't do myself (like hanging shelves) and I can't get anyone to help me right at the exact moment
Looking forward to? Logan's arrival! I can't believe it's finally September! We could be meeting him any day now! I went to the doctor and I'm dilated to a 4. Right after that appointment I started having contractions, they were coming 3-5 minutes apart for a few hours before we finally decided to go to the hospital. Unfortunately they weren't strong enough to make me progress and I didn't want the doctor to break my water or do any form of inducing yet so we went home to wait it out. 4 days later and still waiting, hopefully it will be soon!

37 Weeks
How far along? 37 weeks
Total weight gain/loss: up 30lbs
Maternity clothes? Yep
Stretch marks? No new ones
Sleep: I've been able to get more comfortable in bed this week since baby boy started dropping, but I'm having a harder time not going over and over my to do list the closer it gets to his arrival!
Best moment this week:
Miss anything? Not having to go to the bathroom every 5 minutes
Movement? Still feeling lots of it
Food cravings: Sweets and fruit, as always
Anything making you queasy or sick? Nothing in particular but still having random nauseas moments
Gender? Boy
Labor signs? Just minor contractions every day, about 2hrs apart. Also dilated to a 2 and 75% effaced
Symptoms: Rib pain, minor contractions, leg cramps, trouble sleeping, and NESTING!
Belly button in or out? Still half and half
Wedding ring on or off? Off
Happy or moody most of the time? Happy (and a little stressed about getting the house cleaned, nursery organized, and freezer meals put up before labor starts!)
Looking forward to? Meeting our baby boy!
