Total weight gain: 29 pounds...they say the weight gain may slow or stop during the last few weeks...we'll see if "they're" right...
How big is baby?: The books say 5.5 or 6lbs
Maternity clothes?: Yes - and I did give in and buy another pair of work pants (I mostly had capris...getting a little chilly on the ankles for those) and a couple of long sleeved shirts
Stretch marks?: Still none, though I can't believe I *may* get out of this without them :)
Sleep?: In short supply (in my opinion, at least). I could sleep about 15 hours a day I think - though I know waking up at least every hour to go to the bathroom or to just get comfortable doesn't help the sleep deprivation factor much
Best moment this week?: My coworkers saying that I looked like I've "dropped"...though probably total bologna, it makes me happy :)
Movement?: Still yes. We're at the point that the movement is more stretching that kicks. I think this little one isn't so little anymore and is running out of room!
Food cravings?: Fast food (horrible, I know). I don't know if it's actually the food or the concept of being hungry and just asking Nick to run to Wendy's to get me dinner and him doing it...hmm
Labor Signs?: It seems in the past few days I've been having braxton hicks more regularly throughout the day and my hips feel like they are going to fall out of their sockets - but I think that is more me complaining that labor signs
Belly button in or out?: Kind of all flat and distorted - I don't think I'll be one of ladies with the pop-out turkey timer ones
What I miss: Just feeling like myself again instead of a large, tired, puffy, baby-growing machine. It's all for a good cause though - I think its getting harder because at this point I just want my baby!
What I'm looking forward to: Having the baby! Though that could still be a ways away...
Milestone: Almost full term - in five days little Taylor will be considered a full term baby should she decide to make her appearance :)
Here is lovely photo of the husband and I during an impromtu photo shoot in our kitchen tonight...we could be twins right??
