How far along? 39 weeks.
Total weight gain: 45 lbs. I was only up 25 lbs at 33 weeks. I’m going to let you do the math. & while your at it, please calculate my current water ratio in my body. I’m pretty sure it’s somewhere around 175%.
Maternity clothes? oh, indeed.
Sleep: I drug myself & my child on a nightly basis at this point with the sweet kiss of Benedryl.
Best moment this week: Date night with Nate…out for delicious cheeseburgers, then snuggling with a movie & popcorn.
Movement: He kicks the hell out of my right side.
Gender: boy!
Labor Signs: Tons of cramping & contractions. ZERO dilation, possibly 60% effaced if I’m “lucky.”
Belly Button in or out? In.
What I miss: My patience. I’m 10 seconds from losing my mind all over anyone at any given moment.
What I am looking forward to: Maternity leave!!!!
Weekly Wisdom: Have good friends that are willing to scrub your toilets for you. & make plans with your husband & girlfriends the last few weeks to keep you busy.
Milestones: I have stretchmarks on my feet. Eff me sideways.
