38 Weeks

Crazy to think I never made it to 38 weeks with Evie!

They were arguing over who got to hold the sign first, so we had to do separate pictures today!

How Far Along: 38 weeks

Size of baby: almost 7 pounds and 19.5 inches  (according to baby center)

Total Weight Gain: 26 pounds

Maternity Clothes: All maternity.  Getting really sick of the five-six outfits I have!

Gender: ??? Matthew and I both think boy.  

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, fruit, smoothies.  Food really isn't sounding very good lately.  I think my stomach is just full!

Symptoms: Heartburn has been really bad.  Still having some back pain.  Starting to feel pressure and random contractions.

Best Moments this week: I loved having the spa day to celebrate this baby.  Matthew was talking to Evie about the baby and she was still saying she wants a sister.  He told her that if it is a sister she will have to share her babies and stroller….well after a minute she said, I want a brother!  Haha!
I am still just 1cm dilated so no change since last week.  My doctor did tell me that she will be out of town Thursday-Sunday, so hopefully I don't go into labor this weekend!
I am really just trying to soak up these last days/weeks of pregnancy.  There really is nothing like feeling baby kicks and no matter how uncomfortable I get, I know how fortunate I am to have been able to carry three babies.  I am 99% sure this is my last time to be pregnant which kind of makes me sad, but I am excited for our family to be complete. Although after discussing last week's Parenthood episode with Erinn and Lindsey, we have all pretty much decided we need four kids each! (just don't tell our husbands that!)
