| Please excuse the puffy face. I just woke up from a long nap before we took these. |
How far along: 40 Weeks
Baby's size: 7 pounds and 20 inches long (according to Baby Center). I'm going to try to get a more accurate estimate from my nurse-midwife today.
Sleep: For the last few nights I have slept really, really hard. So much so, I wake up with sheet marks on my face and arms!
Maternity Clothes: Yes plus all my stretchy skirts and long tank tops. I am really looking forward to getting back into my regular clothes and hopefully wearing some of my sundresses before fall begins.
Food cravings: Same as usual - anything cold like ice cream, frozen yogurt, Slurpee's etc.
Food aversions: None.
Symptoms I have: Hot and sweaty still, a little waddling at the end of the day, achy hips and a couple contractions here and there (nothing consistent and they are pretty mild).
Doctor’s Appointment: This morning!
Movement: Yes, but I think she is running out of space now. Her movements feel a little more dramatic.
Belly Button: Out!
Gender: Girl!
What I’m looking forward to: Meeting my daughter either this week or next week (hopefully I'm not 2 weeks late!)
What I miss: This week I don't miss anything. I am just enjoying these last moments before motherhood begins.
Wow! Getting so close. How exciting!

ReplyDeleteHi Kara!
ReplyDeleteI've been reading your blog since around the beginning of this year and haven't ever commented, but I just wanted to mention how awesome and well-rounded I think you are and that you're going to make a great mom. I hope that doesn't sound too weird coming from a total stranger! Can't wait to read about your journey into motherhood.
