Week 37 update...Full term!!

Whoa, I'm full term today! That means less then 3 weeks until my due date, not to mention the fact that she could come anytime before that! It's so crazy! I'm excited and nervous all at the same time!! I went a little crazy with pictures this week haha but you'll get the picture (haha pun intended) of hugeness. Robbie actually said to me today "wow, you're huge!" haha and I wasn't even offended because it's so true! I was just like "Yeah, I know, you haven't noticed?"

"Holy crap I'm huge" the exact thought running through my head as I took this picture. 

My attempt at the belly selfie. These picture do not do the belly justice. Either that or I feel way bigger than I am.

My angle. The feet have been gone for awhile lol

How far along: 37 weeks or 259 days....wow

Total weight gain: I tried really hard not too look at my last doctors appointment, but I did. Total weight gain of 34 lbs. EEk! I should probably slow down on the cupcakes lol 

Stretch marks? I think I saw some (new) faint ones coming in on the bottom of my belly, but lets be honest, its really hard to see down there and what can I do about it? Nothing. Thanks Mom for the great genetics. 

Sleep: Actually, I've been sleep really well. Maybe I've just been really tired, but the last two nights I haven't even woke up to go the bathroom at night. 
Maternity Clothes: I am completely out of anything that isn't maternity or is actually my size. I've been wearing some sweats I got a few sizes too big and I love them. hat sounds so bad lol My belly hangs out of all my old T-shirts, they are impossible to wear and my yoga pants (and even maternity jeans) have gotten really tight through my butt and hips and are not comfortable to wear at all and comfort is basically what I go for these days. Also side note not about clothes, but I have not been able to stand to wear my hair down this past week, maybe its gotten warmer and I'm crankier, but I just can't do it.  

Best moment this week: We moved! It was actually really sad to leave our place in Rexburg we've been living for over two years. We have so many memories in that place, but now we're on a new adventure living in Chesterfield. It's so fun to have a real house. We're living in a place temporarily right now until our more permanent house is move-in ready. We will be here for probably two-ish months until after the baby is born and we're ready to move again lol I am so excited for the new memories that we will have here in Chesterfield and I never want to move nine months pregnant again! Luckily, we had lots of help with everything from packing to moving furniture and boxes and cleaning our old place up. I am especially grateful for all the help and I know Robbie is grateful he didn't have to do everything by himself! So thank you to everyone who helped us!

Also, I had a beautiful baby shower that my mother-in-law and sister-in-laws threw for me! It was so fun and gorgeous! I got some amazing gifts from my awesome family and friends! I am so blessed to have all of you! Thank you to Sh'Ree, Celeste, Chrissy and everyone who came and it made it a special day! I know there were a few people who weren't able to be there and you were missed, but thank you the gifts!

Also, Robbie graduated this past week! I am so proud of him! It was so fun to watch him get his 15 minutes of fame and to be proud of himself! He is very modest and rarely gives himself any credit, but for a minute last Friday when he walked across the stage I saw a glimmer of pride and true happiness, and it was so great to see that in him for once :) He's awesome!

Movement: Okay, back to baby lol Her movement has slowed down some, but she's still doing well. I had a non-stress test a few weeks ago (this is basically where the hook you up to a fetal heart rate monitor and contraction monitor and observe her fluctuation and such for  30 minutes) and everything looks great. She has great fluctuation lol. She has been getting the hiccups a few times a day still and I love feeling her wiggle and squirm. 

Anything making you sick? Nope
Cravings: Cupcakes, big time lol and also greasy foods like corn dogs and burritos. Last night I had a sudden craving for buffalo wing sauce, luckily we had some and I finished it lol

Gender: Girl

Labor signs: At my last doctors appointment I found out I am 2 cm dilated and 75% effaced. My doctor said I could have this girl any day and that I probably won't make it to my due date! AHH!!

Symptoms: Fatigue, but oddly nesting too. I think that has a ton to do with the move. Stretch marks. Back aches at night. swelling. Braxton Hicks. Lightening (she finally dropped and I can breathe).

Wedding rings on or off? They were off for almost the whole week. i just barely put them back on. Last weekend I had a TON of swelling! I almost took a picture, it was actually comical how huge they were Friday, but I thought I would get another chance and didn't sorry. 

Happy or Moody most of the time: I have been really happy this week! I was a little crazy Tuesday after my doctor told me she could come at anytime. I was freaking out because we hadn't even finshed moving in yet, but now I'm all settled and I'm happy and excited for her to come. Let's be real this is my kid were talking about she isn't going to come when its convenient for anyone lol sorry mom. 

Looking forward to: Meeting this little girl! It's all I can think about. I figure, I like myself and I think Robbie pretty awesome so just imagine how cool our baby will be haha I'm kidding, but I'm really, really excited to see her, and hold her, and get to know her!

Week 35

I was 35 weeks on April 3rd. These pictures were taken then. It's been crazy two weeks since then. I will tell you all about it on my new post tomorrow. For now enjoy my model shots haha
