37 Weeks


How far along? 37w,1d
Total weight gain: According to the midwife, I'm up +25
Maternity clothes? Yes.
Stretch marks? Yes.
Sleep: It really depends. Not great lately.
Best moment this week: Seeing Lilly having so much fun at the fireworks.  She was adorable.  We also got her a little baby nursery set, and she is just the cutest, taking care of her baby doll.
  Miss Anything? Wine, all the wine.
Movement: Still frequent, but baby has definitely slowed down some.
   Food cravings: Sweets, fruits, Italian ice.
Anything making you queasy or sick: Nothing really at this point!
Have you started to show yet? Yes, yes I think so. Haha.
Gender prediction: Boy
Symptoms: Nothing really, besides my very frequent Braxton Hicks!  My feet swell occasionally, but definitely not as much as I thought they would be.
Labor signs? I've been having inconsistent contractions, backaches, cramps, feeling nauseated, and generally off for the past three days.  Usually around the same time each night, and lasting about 4-5 hours.  Hopefully that means baby is on the way soon, but I know it's possible it could be another 3-5 weeks.
Belly Button in or out?  It's out.
Wedding rings on or off? I wear just the engagement ring.
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy, nervous, excited, anxious, and DONE!  I'm ready to meet this little one already!
 Looking forward to: Finishing up our to-do list!  Almost done!

To Do List:
Hang art in Lilly's room
Clean:
Bedroom
Bathroom
Living/entry
Office
Dining room
Kitchen
Garage
Install infant car seat
Pack hospital bags
Pack Lilly's bag
Make and install nightstand
Set up pack and play and co-sleeper (waiting till the very end for this)

I know I'm going to miss this so much when it's over, but at this point, I just want this baby out.  I'm tired all the time, I waddle, and I should just set up camp in the bathroom because I pee so much.  I am ready to meet 2.0, and anxious to get things going!  We're seeing the midwife weekly now, and tomorrow morning we have our next appointment.  Tomorrow night, we're meeting with our doula one more time, and I'm just hoping baby decides to make an appearance shortly after both of those appointments!
