37 Weeks

My hubby takes a horrible picture. I am totally just belly and butt.
Size of Baby:  According to Baby Center,is she is considered full-term. Baby J should be about 6 pounds, which I am sure she is more than that now since she was 5 pounds 9 ounces two weeks ago.She should be about 19 inches long, like a stalk of Swiss chard.At this point, her hair has formed, but we could not tell on the last ultrasound.

Maternity Clothes: If it stretches it gets worn.

Gender: Baby J is a girl.

Movement: Baby J is trying to move all my organs out the way to make room for her little body. I guess she is thinking it is her space at the moment and she needs more room.
Sleep: Trying to find the right position that is comfortable for myself and Baby J. Sometimes I have to get up during the night due to leg cramps. 

What I Miss: Being able to bend over and tie my shoes without cutting of my air.

Cravings: Just been eating a lot of cereal this week. 

Symptoms: Leg cramps, some heartburn and swollen, swollen feet. 

Moment of the week:  Finally getting the bed together in the baby's room and putting up the pack in play in the living room.

Congrats! I never made it to 37 weeks (with twins, more than likely they are born premature) but I remember both of them moving around like crazy. It is a feeling that I will always remember and a feeling I would love to feel again...but I am not having anymore! If you need any clothes I have so many baby clothes (Excellent condition) some they did not get too because they grow so fast!

Are you loving pregnancy or are you ready for the hard work but exciting work that lies ahead?

Fill in the Blank Friday--Sleep

1.   The last thing I do before going to sleep is         turn on the TV and set the sleep timer . 2.   When I can't sleep I      watch TV until I fall back to sleep   . 3.   The first thing I do when I wake up is     go to the bathroom . 4.   When I'm tired I      can fall asleep anywhere. I have fallen asleep in a folding chair, on a couch , outside, sitting up.....let's say when I am tired, I am tired . 5.   My dream bedroom would be       have lots of white linens and would feel very breezy. It would be filled with antiques and have a large sitting area. It would be shabby chic . 6.   If I could wake up anywhere tomorrow morning it would be        on a porch on a beach house listening to the waves roll in and the feeling the sun rise on my face . 7.   The longest sleep I've ever had was    I a...

Wedded Wednesday: Wife +Sick Hubby =Medical Degree

I posted  last week about my husband being sick. Even though he is feeling better, he went to his doctor to make sure everything was OK. His doctor in-turn referred him to a specialist, to make sure as well. When I asked him what was the specialist going to do, he said " I do not know. Probably just check me out."  That did not sit well with me, so I decided that I needed to attend the appointment with him. We attended the appointment. He signed in at the front desk and the receptionist asked for the paperwork sent. He of course looked at me......especially since I was the one who fill out the paperwork. I am not sure why I filled out his paperwork, probably because he asked me to, but I never have him fill out my medical paperwork. I digress. We were escorted back to the exam room. The nurse was really nice. As she began to ask for some of the medical information, I found myself answering more of the questions than he was. Maybe I should have been quiet. The doctor eventua...
