Bump Update - 37 Weeks


How far along? 37 weeks...I'm officially FULL-TERM!
Baby Size: Swiss Chard - 19.25in and 6.3lbs
Total weight gain: Around the 32lb range.
Maternity clothes? All maternity...some of my regular shirts still fit me, but I'm mostly in maternity tops too.  I've been wearing flip flops which has been so nice, but it's supposed to snow this weekend.  Of course!  haha!
Stretch marks? Still oiling up everyday! 
Sleep: I have good nights and not-so-good nights.  It's just hard to stay in the same position for long before my back, hips start hurting and my arms are falling asleep.  The joys! 
Best moment this week:  Hitting the 37 week mark and having my sweet boy be considered 'full-term'.  It's so comforting knowing if I had him any day, all his little organs will be completely formed.  Thank you Jesus! 
Miss Anything? Sleeping through the night without potty breaks.  Ohh...that sounds so lovely. 
Movement: Yesterday he was a WILD man, but today he's pretty quiet.  He must have worn himself out.  Silly boy! 
Food cravings:  Can't say I've really had 'cravings'.  Just love food in general!
Anything making you queasy or sick: No, not really. 
Gender: All BOY!
Symptoms: (Broken record) I'm tired...all the time.  Just getting around is becoming a little more difficult.  Still getting Braxton Hicks on top of contractions. The contractions aren't serious, just a little uncomfortable at times. Now that he's getting bigger, he sits on nerves sometimes they trigger a jolt..
Belly Button in or out? Still in, barely. 
Wedding rings on or off? Had to officially retire the wedding ring this last weekend.  Made me sad:( It was getting painfully tight, so my little Lia Sophia band will have to work for the time being. 
Mood: Tired.  Anxious.  Nervous.
Looking forward to:  To be totally selfish, Geoff and I are looking forward to the next few weeks of it just being the two of us, before we become a family of 3!  We are beyond thrilled to finally meet our little man, but we're enjoying 'us' time.  :)
