39 Weeks

  • How far along: 39 weeks
  • Weight gain: 25 lbs. give or take a 2

  • Maternity clothes: Yes! If I get dressed and leave the house. Otherwise...sweats for me!

  • Belly button in or out: Outtie all the way!

  • Sleep: What's that? Needless to say, haven't been sleeping so well. I toss and turn all night, then get up to use the restroom, go to the living room, so I don't wake M up, and lie there wishing I could just get comfortable! If I'm lucky, I fall asleep...until M wakes up to get ready for work at 5 am!

  • Stretch marks: Unfortunately yes, just between my belly button :(

  • Food cravings: I had an urge for Dog N' Suds coney dogs yesterday..and I'm trying to eat spicy stuff! (wishful thinking???)

  • Movement: Definitely still feel the little man moving, but now I have to try to differentiate between movement and contractions. Not as easy as it sounds!

  • Labor signs: I am 1 cm dialated, and 70% effaced, at a -1 station. To sum that up, it means basically nothing...as I could walk around like that for DAYS or even WEEKS! At the same time, at least it's SOMETHING! I like to think of it as only 9 cm more to go!

  • What I'm looking forward to: Going into Labor! If you would have asked me this even a month ago, I would've been petrified still! However, now I just want to get this show on the road! We are both soooo ready to meet our little boy!

  • What I miss most: Laying on my stomach (I can ALWAYS fall asleep like that), SLEEP, having something to do (maternity leave isn't too much fun without a baby), and my old clothes (I don't have many maternity clothes that will fit for this warm weather).

  • Milestones: The end is near?!.... :hopefully)
