37 Weeks

True that I'll be 38 weeks tomorrow but I'll back track a little for 37 weeks. Super uncomfortable, and so ready to be done.  Had a doctors appointment on Monday and it was the shortest and fastest one yet. In and Out, nothing new to report, hanging in there, everything is good with both me and baby. She still couldn't tell if she was breech or not, said the head and the butt often feel the same, no sono and she didn't give any indication of having another. She asked if we got to the hospital on the 30th and found out she flipped if I still wanted to go ahead with the c-section and my only response was that there was no way they were going to send me home to wait for labor, so yes!! I have the 30th as the end goal and I can't imagine changing that now!

How far along? 37 weeks
Total weight gain/loss:  up 39 lbs, I officially weigh more then my husband! Terrible!
Maternity clothes?  Had a breakdown this week when my MATERNITY pants did not fit! Wouldn't go over my ass or my belly! That's when you know you're so done!
Stretch marks?  Nothing yet, I'm terrified that I made it this far and then they will creep up on me at the final hour. Still good though!
Sleep: Sleeping good once I'm asleep, its the getting comfortable enough to fall asleep part that's the hardest.
Best moment this week: 100% finalized her name! We've had the same first name in mind all along, and we're sticking with it, but I've been back and forth on a middle name, we finally made our decision and couldn't be happier with it! 
Miss Anything? Just being comfortable in general.
Movement: Still quite a bit, I thought they were supposed to slow down at the end? Dan and I have nicknamed her "littlefoot" because I swear we can feel little feet running up and down my belly!
Food cravings:  I really wanted a Blue Moon beer last weekend, not sure why that one specifically.
Anything making you queasy or sick: Not really, haven't really had that feeling at all during pregnancy.
Have you started to show yet: Um, people just love to remind a really pregnant women that she looks like she is "going to pop", Just a word to the wise, we know, and we feel like it too, you don't need to remind us!
Labor Signs: Still getting the braxton hicks, have a lot of other really uncomfortable feelings in my back and belly. Last night I was almost sure I was going to go into labor over night, but as soon as I got home, drank some water and put my feet up I relaxed, I guess it was just a long week and come Friday I'm done!
Belly Button in or out? Out everyone says my Turkey timer says "I'm done!"
Wedding rings on or off?  Off, but I have some replacements on that still fit which is good!
Happy or Moody most of the time: I'm happy knowing my little lady will be here in just over a week but pretty moody being this uncomfortable. I swear they make you get this uncomfortable at the end just so you will endure labor, because at this point you will do anything to get it out!!
Looking forward to: Either next Monday or going into labor a little sooner would be great!


Photo coming soon, I actually took one, but I don't have my Photoshop working right now to Jazz it up!
