38 weeks!!!!
By Shannybum » Posted Nov. 9, 2011 10:53am - 519 views - 7 comments

How far along: 38 weeks, 5 days

How Big is the Baby: I have no clue! I think it's on the smaller side cause it's still moving around SO much and you always hear of babies slowing down about now. But that could be wishful thinking.

New/Changed Symptoms: Linea nigra a tad darker but not too bad. Bellybutton has some dark brown discolouration too. Some numbness in hands and sore feeties!

Emotions: This has been an OK week emotionally. I have had lots of anxiety about leaving the house or being away from Brent.

Something Funny That Happened: Kids are so funny - tell them you're pregnant and the inevitable question immediately comes out "How do you get the baby out??!". My friend Jamies' twin girls were so cute with the belly.

Best moment of the Week: The leg rub I got last night from my man AND taking maternity pictures (finally!) - I was glad to get them done before it was too late.

Movement: Lots still, especially at night. It loves to stick its bum up in the air so cute.

Maternity Clothes: Not buying anything else! Just need some nursing bras.

Weight: 36 pounds...weight went up a few pounds and then back down this week.

Food cravings: Fruit bread and candy/chocolate. And I forgot to mention I've been obsessed with Earl Grey tea this wholle pregnancy.

Food aversions: Meat, (red).

What I Miss: Nothing this week.

What I'm Looking Forward To: Finding out what this baby is!!!

Milestone: Every day is a milestone! LOL

Question(s): I haven't had any braxton hicks or any small contractions I don't think...does that mean I will be late.

OOOOOOOooooOOO you look beautiful!

I don't think its a sign you'll be late, my friend had a baby recently and had no pains or anything then all of a sudden BAM.

I think you go into Manage my Account and upload pictures from there (I'm not one for taking photos myself, but I think that's how you do it)

And I doubt it's just your photographer...you look great in all your baby bump photos too :)

Aw thanks. It's my photographer. I want to post more but can't figure out how without doing a separate journal entry for each pic.

I'm a couple of weeks behind you, but haven't had any braxton hicks either. I was beginning to feel like I was the only one. I don't think it's necessarily a sign that you'll be late.
Love the pic by the way....you should have done some maternity modelling. You look fab!
