38 Weeks

38 weeks

Pregnancy Highlights:
How Far Along: 38 Weeks
Size of baby: as long as a leek and estimated to be 7 pounds. I am thinking he will be bigger than Rylee and she was 8 lbs/8 oz
Total Weight Gain/Loss: I think I am up 20 pounds now. Didn't eat the healthiest the last trimester. :o(
Maternity Clothes: Yes. I think I rotate between 3 pair of shorts and 3 shirts. Thank goodness it's summer and I didn't NOT have to find cute teaching clothes!
Gender: a little BOY! :o)
Movement: Still movement just not as strong. I don't think there is much room left in there for him. I had them monitor the baby at the last appointment and he passed with flying colors.
What I miss: Sleeping on my stomach. :o(
Cravings: Juice, smoothies and milk shakes.
Symptoms: Just the same pains. Probably some Braxton Hicks contractions but nothing strong enough to send me to the hospital. I am thinking he is staying put until the 4th!
Best Moment this week: The nursery getting more complete and still having fun with Little Miss Rylee. As hot and miserable it is, I still try to do one fun thing a day with her! I hope she is loving it! :o)


And one picture of A) me being pregnant and B) our vacation we took a month ago. I am being a horrible blogger recently so I figured I would post a picture of our vacation in my "weekly" update! :o)
