How far along? 38 weeks

How big is baby? A little under 7lbs. Will know a more accurate estimate on Wednesday at my ultrasound.

Total weight gain? Ugh. 29 lbs so far

Maternity clothes? Yes

Stretch marks? Some of the old ones toward the top of my belly are starting to stretch a bit. Still not bad.

Sleep? Waking up at least 3 times a night to pee. Changing positions constantly due to hip pain. Other than that, I love sleep. Actually had some contractions keeping me up last night.

Belly button in or out? IN and it won't change

Movement? Yes, still lots of movement. I feel like contractions make baby a little upset so I have a contraction and then baby has a little fit when it's over, lol.

Food cravings? I just love to eat, lol.

Labor signs? Actually had contractions I could time last night in the middle of the night. They didn't hurt but they were noticeable. Timed them at 5-6 minutes apart then I went back to sleep. When I woke up I timed them at 4-5 minutes apart so I decided to get up and get moving, take a shower, etc... just to see if they would slow down or stop. They stopped. Bummer. Some random strong, but still not painful, contractions today as well. Hoping for the real thing very soon!

Symptoms? Heart burn, aching hips when I sleep, cranky and HOT all of the time. Also my feet/ankles/calves are SO SWOLLEN! It hurts to even touch them. Extra gross.

Engagement rings on or off? Off :(

Happy or moody most of the time? Switched to moody and pissed off some time last week. Right after that last appointment and incident with my son actually. Haven't been happy since. Now I cry because of really random things that shouldn't make me cry or I am irritated and upset for no reason.

Best moment last week? Uhm, no.

Miss anything? I don't think so...

Looking forward to? GIVING BIRTH!!!!!!!!
