How far along? 39 Weeks
Baby Size? Watermelon ~baby is approx 7 lbs now according to What to Expect App
Total weight gain: 36 lbs
Maternity clothes? mostly work out clothes and sundresses now that I’m not working this week
Stretch marks? none on belly yet and hoping it stays that way.
Miss Anything? my glass of vino is in sight!! so is a tasty 4th of july beverage 🙂
Movement: He’s still moving good but it does feel like he’s running out of space
Food cravings: PEACHES and ice cream
Symptoms: heartburn is back around. acid indigestion has improved again
Belly Button in or out? still an innie, but deformed
Wedding rings on or off? my fingers got really swollen for about 2 days and I was so nervous my wedding rings were stuck, but I got them off and now just going to keep them off…
Sleep: Sleeping well with the Boppy body pillow but waking up a lot to use the restroom
Best moment this week: prepping for baby and shopping for the new house and going to the doctors
Exercise: Walking lots this week trying to get baby to drop!
Anything making you queasy or sick: nope
Gender Prediction: It’s a BOY
Labor Signs: no consistent contractions yet. Read doctor’s update below.
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy and anxious and nervous
Looking forward to: holding him for the first time!
Doctors Update: Well this should be my very last weekly update…I went to the doctor on Tuesday the 18th and doctor checked the cervix. I’m still 1 cm dilated and he actually did a little procedure called “stripping the membranes.” Basically, it is just a way for them to try and release a hormone that will help bring contractions and labor signs on naturally. If I don’t go into labor on my own this week, he will see me on Monday morning and then probably admit me Monday or Tuesday night to be induced.
