Week 37

Almost there! He is going to be here before we know it! I can't wait! All the heat and humidity this week has made me be so greatful that I will not be pregnant for the majority of the summer. I couldn't imagine dealing with this heat for 3 whole months. I am so excited to have him here with us and see him in person, not just through a machine. Okay so here are some pictures, what do y'all think... has he dropped?

and here is a barebelly one just cause they make me laugh :)

How far along? 37 weeks 5 days

Baby is the size of a(n): watermelon! He is about 20 inches long and 6.5 lbs.

Changes in me: As of my appointment Monday I was still at 1 cm and 50% effaced but I have had more braxton hicks since then soooo I am hoping that means more dilation and effacement. We will see :)

Food cravings: Popsicles! It has been so hot I haven't really been in the mood for anything but ice water and popsicles. I guess this is a good thing though cause maybe it means I won't gain anymore.

Sleeping: I am looking forward to being able to sleep comfortable again when this lil man arrives. Even though I know I won't get much sleep at least I won't have to pee every 5 seconds and be kicked all night long. Well I guess hubs does throw the bows at night so I will still have that to deal with ;)

Milestones: I am full term now! Woohoo! Which means lil man could come literally any day now and be perfectly okay. I am not holding my breathe that he will come early though but if he did I would not complain :)

Babies activity: He rolls around alot and sticks his bum in the air. I have a really funny picture of my whole right side being occupied by his little bum and leg. BUT when I sent the picture out to my family they mistook my knees for something else so I don't think I will be sharing that picture with anyone else. I am still trying to see how they all took it that way cause it is clearly my knees but I figure I will spare you all the questionable picture.

Interesting things that happened this past week: This week has been pretty boring. I have had a lot of people ask me when I am due and if I am ready to have him out. Which to all of them I say "yes it is blazing hot out now... he can come anytime." Aside from that I haven't had any crazy encounters. Maybe its because I look like I am about to pop so people don't want to send me off the edge by asking me silly things.

Happy Friday!
