For the past two days I have just been exhausted! I have been sleeping good at night and taking naps during the day! I don't know if it's my body's way of saying you need some sleep or if it's a sign that labor is near!?!? There is a full moon tonight! I have been taking it easy for the most part but I have had a few busy days this week. We went la-z-boy shopping one day this week and picked out a rocker/recliner that Gahbe is getting for the nursery! Did I say that is my last blog?? Can't remember! St. Patty's Day was Thursday, my friend came over to hang out with me and brought her 6 week old son :) it was fun hanging out with them! When Patrick got home we painted my belly with a big shamrock and then went out to Ale House for dinner! We watched everyone else drink green beer. Next year my friend and I are going to make green apple juice for the little ones and green beer for ourselves! I'm already looking forward to it! Yesterday Patrick's shop had a baby shower for us and one other couple! It was very nice and fun to meet the people he works with! I wasn't able to take any pictures since cameras and phones aren't allowed in the building. After the shower we went back to la-z-boy and bought the chair! It will be ready Thurs or Fri for us to pick up... I am so excited!! It is going to be huge in her nursery but there is no room in our living room for it so until we move it will be in the nursery. I woke up this morning for a while but then took a nap that lasted half the day. It felt so nice to sleep! I finally got up when the time warner guy came to install our cable and phone line. We have had Directv for years now but TWC was offering a deal we couldn't pass up so we switched. It's going to be so nice to pay so much less a month! I ran a couple errands this afternoon and got a cabinet for the kitchen at Target then came home and made chicken enchiladas for dinner (my fav!) while Patrick built it. While he had his drill out we hung some little shelves I had for the nursery and I packed the diaper bag for the hospital! I still need to pack my hospital bag which I will do tonight if I get another energy spurt or maybe tomorrow.. we'll see! Well here is my update for this week...
How far along? 38 weeks
How big is baby? 7-7 1/2 lbs according to the similac website
. I was talking to my Doc about it the other day b/c everyone that has been guessing has been guessing 8 lbs or over and she said she might have to guess the same thing if I make it all the way (or past) my due date. Ahh! I was hoping she would be 6-7 lbs!
Weight gain? 40 ish depending on the time a day. I have not gained any the last three weeks on the Dr. office scale so thats good!
Maternity clothes? I really don't what to say here anymore.. I hate hate hate all of my maternity clothes adn can't wait to be out of them! My new pair of jeans I got a couple weeks ago are actually too big but it's better than the ones that are too small!
Stretch marks? no new ones
Sleep? well the last two nights have been amazing! I have also gotten to nap some during the day which I actually hate but I know I need the extra rest and it has been fun to enjoy sleep! I think she has dropped so low now that the pressure that was making it impossible for me to sleep is not as bad now.
Best moment this week? I have to say enjoying sleep!
Movement? It's different movement now
Food cravings? fruit, fruit, fruit! Watermelon, strawberries, pineapple, grapes and bananas! I haven't been able to find any good strawberries yet though so I keep looking!
Gender? Girl!
Labor signs? none :-/ I am hoping that the fact I am so tired and she has dropped and I just feel different maybe that means its getting close?!
Belly button in or out? still in
What I miss? sleeping on my belly!
What I am looking forward to? My Mom getting here and having this baby! haha
Milestones? umm... I don't know?
38 weeks
I wasn't feeling like getting pretty today!
