38 Weeks.


How far along: 38 weeks!

Baby size: a Watermelon (19-21 inches, Approx 7lbs)

Weight gain: doctor says I'm gaining enough and have nothing to worry about.

Maternity clothes: yup. but honestly I'm lucky if I get out of my PJ's... or get clothes on at all for that matter! 

Stretch marks: still just the one this pregnancy but the coloring on all of my stretch marks is a little shinier?!  

Sleep: more like PURE exhaustion. I wake up 10+ times to pee in the middle of the night. My insomnia and crazy mind keeps me up for hours and last night I had a little "round robin" game of Cramps, Upset Stomach and Heartburn. Literally, for an hour, the discomfort and pain rotated in that order. It was awful. 

Gender: little lady

Best moment this week: Making it to 38 weeks. Quiet an accomplishment for a Kyla Pregnancy! (Guess I am NOT one of those women who follow pregnancy patterns)

Looking forward to: a little more baby shopping this week.
 I got some ADORABLE headbands from ASassyBowShop and I am so in love with them and it gets me so excited to DRESS a little girl.

What I miss: bending over. honestly. I never realized how MUCH of it a person does in a day and it's almost an impossible task these days. 

Movement: yes! moving all over mommy's belly. Daddy has been able to feel her a lot this week as she starts shifting around trying to get comfortable RIGHT as mom is trying to go to sleep. 

Food cravings: Chocolate and WATER. 

Aversions: beef.

Belly Button: still flat but so fun to watch it pop out when I am having a contraction! 

Nursery: it's pretty much ready except for the fact that Hunter is STILL sleeping in the crib
I'd like to find a rug and curtains to finish it off but for the most part it's baby move in ready! 

Miscellaneous: I hate to complain (again) but I am so ready for this baby to be OUT. I am so grateful she has stayed in there this long and hope that means we will get to bring home a healthy baby after a day or so, however, my pain/discomfort/anxiety levels are THROUGH the roof and I am ready to meet my little girl. 
Monday, I have another appointment where the Dr will check my progress and talk induction! 
If she hasn't made her big debut by the 10th I am hoping he will take her then. 
I mean, we have made it this far so hopefully makes it through next Wednesday so Dad can watch his Seahawks WIN the Super Bowl for the FIRST TIME EVER, and so that Grandma Shelley can be here! 

Happy Friday and LAST DAY OF January!! 
Any Big SuperBowl Sunday plans?
Who are you cheering for?
