39 Weeks



Baby Size: Baby is the size of a honeydew melon this week.
Total weight gain: Total weight gain is somewhere between 21 and 22 pounds. It fluctuates depending on my water intake I think. The doctor did tell me my fluid levels were a little on the high side. That makes me wonder if this baby is really smaller than they are guessing.
Maternity clothes? Mostly trying to get by in leggings and sweat pants. Plus rotating through all of the longest shirts I have.
Stretch marks? Nothing new, but I do have an itchy belly.
Sleep: Sleep is meh. Between Mark snoring and just having to switch sides all night long from being uncomfortable it is just not great.
Best moment this week: Halloween was fun, even though Beau was sick with a tummy bug he perked up enough to trick or treat for a little while. We also had a great parent teacher conference on Thursday and that boy is making me one proud momma.
Miss Anything? Comfort. Coffee. Sleep.
Movement:  Yes, flopping from one side to the other. I feel like its a little late in the game for that but moving all the same. 
Food cravings:  Nothing in particular.
Anything making you queasy or sick:  Coffee is still kinda blah. Hopefully that goes away upon babies arrival.
Gender:  I have NO clue. I still have girls vibes a lot, but at the doctor Friday during my check up ultrasound I got hit with a very heavy case of boy.  I just don't know.
Labor Signs:  Some serious contractions every now and then.  Some painful, some not so much.  At my appointment I was "a good two centimeters" and 70 percent effaced. I think baby could show up at any point in time really.  My body is definitely trying to move this little one.
Symptoms: Sleepy, the worst heartburn of this whole pregnancy the last few weeks, pubic bone pain especially when I sneeze or cough. Some end of pregnancy anxiety has kicked in too.
Belly Button in or out? Out.
Wedding rings on or off? On unless I slack on drinking water.
Looking forward to: Meeting this babe.  Finding out gender, and finally seeing all these features that we have got to see a few more times than with Beau or Blake.  Also, seeing if this small belly is really the smallest baby of all. There is just so much unknown that I can't wait to find out and share.
