I can't believe I am classed as full term! The
last nine months have pretty much gone by in a blur now that I look back,
meaning that I don't know where the time went! With this being our first baby we
hang onto every milestone, feel every kick and count every month, week, day and
second. During the past 9 months I never
thought this day would come, now that its here I cannot believe it is about to
end. I love being pregnant. Justin and I wanted nothing more than to start our
own family and now that she is almost here we are over come with joy. I have
been blessed with an amazing pregnancy, I have had my rough moments but I
constantly remind myself that there is an end and the reward is worth it. It
also helped having a very good support group around me. Any day now Ava is
welcome!
How far along? 37
Weeks
Total weight gain: up
28 lbs.
Maternity clothes? If I go in public I wear my maternity jeans. Luckily I have survived with normal shirts for the most part just stretched to capacity. If I am around the house I wear Justins shorts and shirts.I might have to buy him a new waredrobe just to thank him.
Stretch marks? none yet just those 2 weird red marks..I know after she is out there will be something funky there.
Sleep: None! Nadda! Sleep is the worst!!!!
Best moment this week: Maternity pictures. Feeling like I am OFFICIALLY ready for her arrival.

Miss Anything? being
comfortable and active
Movement: lots of major movements & rearranging... I'm sure she is pretty darn cramped in there! Lately I can even feel her hands and feet.
Food cravings: No appetite at all. I have cereal for breakfast, very tiny lunch, and TRY to have a normal dinner. I never FEEL hungry though.
Anything making you queasy or sick: Still the thought of meat. I try to eat it but the thought of meat is no good.
Gender: Girl
Labor Signs: I have a few contractions here and there. I have A LOT of pain when I walk and some pressure. Nothing significant…any day now!
Symptoms: Week 37 is when I officially hit a wall. Being uncomfortable has a whole new meaning... I have been tired again like the first trimester & my stomach is pretty painful..Wondering if it has anything to do with her little head pushing through my stomach muscles. Also, my heartburn is back full force.

Belly Button in or out? Technically
still in. Maybe it won’t ever pop.
Wedding rings on or off? On most of the time but I have been getting swollen if I over do it.
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy
Looking forward to: baby girl's arrival of course ... can't believe it is almost time!! I was so nervous about labor and delivery around 30 weeks, but now I am so excited to go into labor and the whole process. I am so antsy and ready..Which I know will come back to bite me in the tush because now she will be late or something. This mom doesn’t have very many patience haha!
