36 Weeks - 4 Weeks to Go!


Size of baby: Crenshaw melon

Total Weight Gain: 24 lbs total

Continuing symptoms: Hands and feet are swollen. Hard to roll over from side to side. Feeling huge. 

New symptoms this week: my maternity clothes are becoming increasingly too small. I feel like my belly is starting to hang out the bottom of most of them and since I prefer the jeans that only have a thin band and not an entire panel I am afraid my bare belly is showing. Can’t wait for maternity leave to start so I can just wear comfortable yoga pants everyday.

Sleep: I also am getting weird sleep patterns where I am wide awake in the middle of the night for no reason. Not exactly tired when I wake up but bored and don’t know what to do with myself. I am trying to just lay there and rest and do something like read.

What I'm Eating: drinking a ton of water

Cravings: fruit. Souplantation and Subway. Anything from the drive-thru or heavy just sounds yucky.

Grandma gift this week: Today is Grandma's birthday and she isn't at work today so I have not gotten the Grandma gift today. Happy 50th Birthday Mom! You are officially ready to become a Gma! 

Special pregnancy moments: On Sunday we took our maternity photo with 24 Feet Photography. It was fun, energetic, and creative. The proof turned out amazing and I don’t know which photo is my favorite. The challenge will be to pick which ones to print.
