37 Weeks

How far along? 37 weeks

Total weight gain/loss: Up 3lbs - effect of my sudden increase in appetite last week?

Maternity clothes? Yes.

Stretch marks? Yes. But I don't think I've gained any new ones from last week. Although, I'm not exactly counting so who knows.

Sleep: Really well. I only wake up once or twice and often can just switch sides and fall back asleep. My only complaint is that no matter how well I sleep, I'm almost always tired during the day now. Too bad I can't squeeze in a daily nap.

Best moment this week: Hearing the little guy's heartbeat at our weekly checkup.

Movement: Lots of stretching and pushing on me still. My belly takes on the funniest lop-sided shapes. And, the baby gets the hiccups about once a day - bouncing my belly the entire time. Trent & I jokingly called him "Tigger" at these times since it looks as though my belly is going "boing...boing...boing..."

Food cravings: None. But still enjoying that hearty appetite I acquired last week. Wonder if that means I'll see another 3lbs added to the scale next week. Hmm...

Labor Signs: None.

Belly Button in or out? Pretty close to flat. Trent has teased me that when it pops, the baby is done cooking. ;)

What I am looking forward to: Our last childbirth class tomorrow and just enjoying a little R&R this weekend.

Milestones: We picked out a pediatrician. One more item scratched off the to-do list.

Energy Level: Slowing down ...

  6. Oh, I remember the hiccups! lol My doctor said that meant our daughter would probably have them after she was born, too, and she did! Love these updates, Sarah!
