39 Weeks

How Far Along? 39 Weeks
Weight Gain? About 30lbs
Sleep? It comes and goes, some nights I sleep great and others my mind is racing
Maternity Clothes? All the time
Movement? Yes!  She is running out of room, but still moving around a lot
Miss Anything? Not really missing much.  I'm just trying to soak up the last week of feeling this little Biscuit move around because I know that I will miss that
Aversions? Nope
Food Cravings? Still liking sweets of any kind
Gender? Girl
Labor Signs? Not really.  I have had a few contractions, but nothing to get excited about
Best Moment of this Week? This past weekend was great.  Ben and I got to visit with good friends, we went to eat just the 2 of us and I also talked him into going to the spa with me for a mani/pedi.  It was nice to spend some time with just him
Belly Button In or Out? Flat, sometimes it looks like it is about to come out, but it's still pretty flat
Wedding Rings On or Off? Off, I am just wearing a plain silver band because I don't want to take the chance of getting my wedding ring stuck
Happy or Moody Most of the Time? Happy!  Can't wait to meet our little Biscuit on Monday, if not sooner
Looking Forward To? Our last appointment Wednesday afternoon.  And then after that, I can't wait to spend our last weekend as just the 2 of us and meet our little girl on the 16th!!!

38 Weeks

How Far Along? 38 Weeks, getting close!
Weight Gain? 30lbs
Sleep? It's okay, I just can't seem to get comfortable, and my hands and fingers fall asleep so I wake up to them tingling
Maternity Clothes? All the time
Movement? Yes.  She's not as active, but still VERY active.  She especially liks to be active when I am in the pool
Miss Anything? I miss a lot of things, but I have really enjoyed this pregnancy so I am not complaining.  I know I am going to miss feeling her move all the time
Aversions? No
Food Cravings? Still fruit and sweets
Gender? Girl
Labor Signs? Having some braxton hicks here and there
Best Moment this Week? We went to the doctor yesterday, and I am 70% effaced and barely 1cm dialated.  I am okay with her waiting it out until her Mimi and Dado get home on Friday at the earliest.  But I would really be okay with her waiting until the 15th or 16th.
Belly Button In or Out? Flat
Wedding Rings On or Off? Off.  I tried to wear them on Friday and by the evening my fingers were swollen and I could barely get them off.  I am just wearing a silver band that my mom is letting me borrow.
Happy or Moody Most of the Time? Happy.  Getting anxious for her arrival, and really enjoying time with my hubby and friends
Looking Forward To? Our next appointment on the 11th to see if anything has changed.  If nothing has changed, then I am really looking forward to the 16th when I will be induced!
