36 weeks

How Far Along: 36 weeks

Size of baby: pineapple (19 to 22 in, 4.9 lbs)

Total Weight Gain/Loss: 34 1/2 lbs.

Maternity Clothes: Yes and some of those aren't covering up that belly!

Gender: BOY!!!

Movement: It has slowed down quite a bit, but I can still feel him doing the jig every once in a while. And the funny thing is that you can totally watch him do it too. My belly just bounces right along with him :)

Sleep: Not too bad.

What I miss: Sleeping on my stomach.

Cravings: Nothing too notable.

Symptoms: I had one day a couple of days ago that was awful, but ever since then I have gone back to feeling great. I figured out that night that the contractions I had been having were for sure Braxton Hicks, because the ones I had Monday night were a totally different ballgame. A make you feel sick at your stomach they hurt so bad, ballgame! He has also found himself resting on my sciatic nerve every once in a while :)

Best Moment this week: Starting my weekly appointments. I was 1 cm dilated and 50% effaced. She said that he had dropped a lot and could feel his head (YAY! HEAD DOWN!!!) We also got the majority of his decor up. I feel confident that we can get done before he gets here, which is a pretty big relief to me!
