37 Weeks - FULL TERM

37 weeks pregnant which is technically full term! that means baby can come anytime now! My due date is not for another 3 weeks but maybe she would like to make an early arrival? Since im full term i've had a lot of people suggest i get to walking or jump on a trampoline and get this show on the road but at least for now im perfectly fine where i am she seems comfy and as much as i want to meet her.  Im not quite ready to jump start things maybe its the nerves?? :)


Baby girl should be over 19 inches long now about the length of a stalk of swiss chard and weighing somewhere between 6 1/2 lbs.



How far along? 37 weeks

35 Weeks


I am 35 weeks pregnant and things are starting to get intense around here mainly due to two newbie parents trying to prepare for anything and everything imaginable. We've never had a baby before so yah theres that. Mostly tho we are so excited we just cant wait to meet our daughter! My baby should be around 18 inches long and tips the scales at 5 1/4 pounds





How far along? 35 weeks

Sleep: I feel like saying none but thats not really true im actually getting quite a bit of sleep its often interrupted by potty breaks and baby kicks but still.

How am i feeling?: Mostly tired a little nervousness kicking in :)

Total Weight Gain: 25 pounds.........scary....

Food Cravings: Can i just eat everything i'm not suppose to please? :)

Gender: GIRL!!

What i'm looking forward to: This is my very last week of work and i am so anxious to work on things at home. Its so very hard to get anything done after a days work. And with these nesting feelings i know i will feel so much better getting things ready for baby.

Best moment this week: Watching my belly shape shift, there really is a baby in there! I also took a breastfeeding class that was awesome an pretty eye opening the fact that i'm about to be a mother is really sinking in.
