How far along? 36 weeks, 90% complete!
Which trimester are you in? 3rd trimester, I'm almost done! :)
How many days until your due date? JUST 28 whole days left! I'm sure they'll drag on by... lol.
How big is baby? Size of a head of Romaine lettuce, according to BabyCenter.
What are some of your pregnancy symptoms? Trouble sleeping, loss of appetite (probably because there's no room lol), slight cramping, Braxton hicks, a bit of pressure...
Any cravings? Dying for some Chinese food right now...
Any food aversions? Nope.
What emotions have you experienced this week? Excitement and a bit of stress, lol.
Are you wearing maternity clothes yet? Yep!
Have any stretch marks? Yep... Still getting worse, still dealing with a very itchy belly!
How much weight have you gained? Still at 25lbs.
Belly button in or out? Mostly out.
Wedding rings on or off? Still on, but get some slight swelling every now and then.
Felt any movement? Yep, but it's definitely slowing down, baby girl is running out of room. Sometimes her movement is painful, too!
Gender? Girl.
How has your sleep been? What sleep? Haha. Between tossing and turning all night and waking up to pee, I'm averaging anywhere from 5-6 hours of sleep a night. Sometimes I can sneak a nap in.
Are you nesting? I have things I WANT (and NEED) to get done, but no motivation to actually DO them.
Labor signs? Just braxton hicks. Some slight cramps and pressure, nothing too exciting yet.
What was your best moment last week? Finally buying our stroller. At least, part of it. We still need to get the 2nd seat attachment for it, lol.
What are you looking forward to this week? My appointment this afternoon, I have the group B test today and they'll hopefully check for dilation. And also just some prepping for baby girl. Buying a few new things for her, washing clothes, packing hospital bags, etc. The real countdown is here! :)
