How far along: 36 weeks, 4 days
How Big is the Baby: Average is 18.5 inches, 5.75 pounds
New/Changed Symptoms: Linea Nigra but only above belly button, not below, very faint. Bouts of tremendous fatigue this week.
Emotions: I've been down in the dumps.
Something Funny That Happened: Nothing funny this week, so far.
Best moment of the Week: My husband rubbed my calves with moisturizer last night - it felt so amazing all the little pains and knots in the muscles in there - mmmmmmm it was heaven.
Movement: Some crazy movements, and somersaults, apparently! Baby was breech on Sunday and then head down at my ultrasound today...hmmmmm. Hope it won't flip again.
Maternity Clothes: I'm so over buying maternity clothes! It's my last week of work so I can live in lounge wear pretty much til the end now. My friend's bringing me her maternity leggings this weekend.
Weight: I've gained about 33-34 pounds, it has been fluctuating all week. Seems like my weight gain has really levelled off, I've hardly gained anything the last two weeks. My predicition is I'll end up at 35 pounds.
Food cravings: Sweets and pastries (muffins, donuts, etc.) Milk. Spicy foods, fruit like bannanas.
Food aversions: Still not loving meat, but no real aversions....haven't been craving veggies at all.
What I Miss: My energy.
What I'm Looking Forward To: Friday - last day of work!!! Also having friends spend the weekend with us. Midwife appt. Friday and my husband's coming :)
Milestone: 1200 diapers sitting in my closet :) Full term in just a couple days!
Question(s): If my baby is flipping at this stage, does it mean it's on the small side?
