Here I am...38 weeks!

And I have to say, I'm about done.  I'm hot, swollen, and all around uncomfortable.  It doesn't seem like this little guy is ready to come out anytime soon, either.  Ah well...2 (or 3??) more weeks at the most!

How far along are you? 38 weeks

Total weight gain: 33 lbs:(

How big is baby?: At our 36 week growth scan he was estimated to be about 7 lbs.  I know these estimates are usually a little high so I'm thinking he's around 7 - 7.5 now.

Maternity clothes: I've been wearing mostly regular dresses and skirts with longer tanks this week.

Stretch marks?: Nope!

Sleep?:  Horrible.  I don't think I ever get any deep sleep because I'm so uncomfortable and constantly have to pee.

Best moment this week?: Hmmm...I guess just finishing up everything.  I'm feeling pretty prepared!  Oh, and I finally got to have Wendy's chicken nuggets this week, lol!

Movement?: It has slowed down a bit, but I'm sure that's just because he's running out of room.  I still feel him quite a bit.  As excited as I am to have him here, I'm really gonna miss feeling him in my belly.  It really is the best thing ever.

Food cravings?:  Cold things...frozen yogurt, popsicles, fruit.

Food aversions?:  Nothing, really.

Labor signs?: A lot of cramping, but that's really nothing new.  Today I've been having some sharp pains lower down.  Not sure if t his means anything?

Belly button in or out?: Neither.  It's completely flat.

What I miss:  Not being huge and uncomfortable.

What I'm looking forward to: My appointment on Wednesday.  I hope some progress has been made!
