36 Weeks!

I am a little late writing this post, so I am a few days past 36 weeks. Which means I have less than a month left!! And I will be considered full term on Thursday!! CRAZY!! We will just be waiting and counting down the days after that!


Size of Baby: Almost 6 pounds and about 18.5 inches long!

Total Weight Gain: Probably about 20 pounds, but I will get an official weight at the doctor on Wednesday.

Maternity Clothes: Yep!
   
 Gender: GIRL!
 
Movement:  She moves all day! She is starting to give me some pretty good jabs in the ribs! She is so big now!

What I Miss: Sleeping through the night and finding comfortable positions. It is so hard to get comfortable at night now. My hips have started to hurt from having to lay on my sides at night. I will enjoy being able to sleep on my back again when she arrives!

Cravings: Chocolate milk! I have not had chocolate milk in forever but for some reason I can't get enough of it now!!

Symptoms: Frequent trips to the bathroom still, some hip and rib pain, and being sleepy during the day!

Best Moment This Week: The best moment this week was getting to have my family and Brian's Dad and cousin over to see the nursery this past weekend. Brian and his cousin spent the day grilling ribs, making corn, and baking potatoes. The dinner turned out so great and it was so much fun to have everyone over!

What I'm Looking Forward to:I am looking forward to my ultrasound next week. We are going to see how big she is, and it will be the last time we get to see little Savannah before she is in our arms!!

Baby Bump!!

35 Weeks!

I cannot believe we only have 5 weeks left. And only 2 weeks until I am considered full term. Wow. Time. Has. Flown. We are completely done with our nursery and we are so ready to meet Miss Savannah!! It is just a countdown now, and I am trying to force myself to enjoy the last few weeks of relaxation. It is very hard to do because I am so excited for her to get here!!


Size of Baby: About 5 1/4 pounds and 18 inches long!

Total Weight Gain: I think 17-18 pounds

Maternity Clothes: Yep!
   
 Gender: GIRL!
Movement:  She is still moving, but I can tell she is getting cramped in there!! I really don't feel as many kicks anymore, I just feel her shifting around and changing positions. These little movements have definitely become more uncomfortable since her head is down pretty low now!

What I Miss: Still sleeping through the night!! I get up so many times! I know it is preparing me for her arrival though.

Cravings: Any kind of fruit. I also had a random craving for Runts candy when Brian and I went to the lake last weekend, and I bought some at Cracker Barrel!

Symptoms: Frequent bathroom trips and pelvic pressure! Every time she moves her sweet little head, it hurts!

Best Moment This Week: I would say the best moment was getting to go to the lake last weekend with my husband. We called it our "babymoon". We had so much fun relaxing and enjoying our time together before Savannah arrives. We got to go to Gruene, Texas for dinner and some shopping, went the the outlet mall, and swam!

What I'm Looking Forward to: Next weekend we are having both of our families over to our house for the nursery reveal. I am excited for all of them to see the nursery in person!

Baby Bump!
 I wore this shirt in one of my other posts, but it is fun to see how much bigger I look in it now haha!
