36 weeks




Pregnancy Highlights:

How Far Along: 36 weeks
Size of baby: around 6 pounds and more than 18 inches (according to baby center)

Total Weight Gain: Not sure but I'm guessing I'm at the 25 pound mark
Maternity Clothes: all maternity
Gender: ???  I'm getting really excited to know!
Movement: This baby is constantly moving.  I feel him/her the most early in the morning or late at night before I go to sleep.
Sleep: I'm falling asleep really early and sleep good until around 3am then I'm usually tossing and turning the rest of the night.
What I miss: Just feeling good and not aching at the end of the day
Cravings: sweets, water, cuties
Symptoms: Heartburn has been really bad.  I am also having horrible back and shoulder pain.  This baby has a body part that stays lodged in my rib cage, so I constantly feel like my rib is broken!
Best Moments this week: Mason's class had a vote on if this baby is a boy or girl.  It was tied and a little boy in his class said, "it must be a tomboy!"  :)
We did a tour of the hospital last week so we would know what to do when I go into labor.  We took the kids and Mason was so confused.  He thought I was having the baby that night.  We were all in one of the L&D rooms, and he looked at the table then looked at me and asked if I was about to lay on the table and let the baby come out.
Evie loves to lay on my stomach and feel the baby kick her cheeks.
I go to the doctor on Tuesday and will go weekly until the baby arrives.  I'm excited to see if I have started to progress any.  
I washed some newborn clothes, we got a new car seat and swing, and pulled out some other baby gear.  It's getting so close!
