36 weeks

How far along: 36 weeks, 4 days
Mini is the size of a: large cantaloupe (19-22 in. 6 lbs.)
Maternity Clothes: oh yes
Stretch Marks: three more weeks to go they better not show up now!!
Sleep:Going to the bathroom 3-4 times a night, totally a preview of my sleep schedule to come.
Symptoms: tired and get exhausted easily. Absolutely have started to waddle, in fact David calls me Waddles since that is how I get anywhere these days!
Best Moment of the Week: Being on maternity leave and just relaxing. Shopping trips with my mom, getting the nursery prepped, packing my hospital bag.
Movement: Lots of hiccups and waves of movement.
Cravings: Nothing new, watermelon still a staple in my diet
Gender: pink for days
Belly Button In or Out: In and flat
Wedding Ring on or Off: On but getting tight, I may have to say goodbye to them as the days get hotter.
Anything Making You Queasy or Sick: nope
What I Miss: Work...HAHA just kidding :)
What I am Looking Forward to: Meeting this little lady, I can't believe in 23 days (+/-) I will get to hold her and know what she looks like!
Labor Signs: A couple of braxton hicks but nothing else new.
Nursery:Just waiting (not so patiently) on David to finish the ladder. Everything else is done! All her clothing, bedding and blankets are washed just waiting for her to arrive!
Emotions: Happy and relaxed!

  1. Aw I love the bump! You look gorgeous! I can't even imagine having 3-4 potty breaks per night, that must be so annoying! Definitely a good primer for when baby girl arrives though :)

  11. Definitely agree with Natasha, this time before the baby will be the last time it's just you and David and Finn. We love our daughter to pieces but we do occasionally we miss the times it was just us. Last month of pregnancy too! You're in the home stretch, who knows - she may show up early. Our little miss came 8 days early.
