Total weight gain: 30lbs. I actually went back down 2lbs this week.....nothing to complain about there.
How big is baby?: I had an ultrasound this week at my appointment at 39 weeks 6 days. They estimated the baby is currently 7lbs 5oz.......+/- one pound.....so basically between 6-8lbs. Shocker! She measured at the 55% for size so they were very happy with growth. Fluid was still good at 10, they definitely want above 5.
Maternity clothes?: Yep
Stretch marks? Nope
Sleep?: Ugh, well still waking 1+ times per night for the restroom and I've had several nights where I just don't go back to sleep sometimes, so I've been up at 4am for a few days.
Best moment this week?: Working my last day of work and seeing our little girl on ultrasound again! I made it through my 4 day stretch and likely won't go back until 10 weeks after baby. I could go in Monday/Tuesday if I don't have the baby, but I doubt I will. Baby looked so cute on ultrasound again. We saw her breathing fluid in there and her hand was up by her face again.
Movement?: Still trying to stretch out sometimes and seems to be extra active at night usually.
Food cravings?: Nothing special
Labor signs?: Well, the doctor checked me and I'm a whopping 1cm and only 30% effaced. Not looking like anytime soon. She asked, "so, what do you want to do?". Uh....wait longer. She was good with that and I go back on Monday for an NST, fluid ultrasound, and probably get checked/membranes striped again.
Belly button in or out? Out and weird looking
What I miss: Every conversation with people NOT starting with "When do you think the baby will come?" I wish I knew!
What I'm looking forward to: Just waiting for baby! And hoping not to be induced.....
