BABY'S SIZE a winter melon! (i have no idea what that is). 19 inches and 6-9 ish pounds, so the app says.
HOW I'M FEELING getting close to feeling ready but not quite. i don't think nesting has really hit. i'm taking that as my biggest sign that things are about to happen. guess baby wants to wait too.
WHAT I'M EATING i feel like other than cereal, the cravings are kind of stopping - the few that i had. i feel like i'm eating pretty normal.
HOW I'M CHANGING somehow, my belly keeps growing and growing. the waddling is definitely becoming more pronounced. at my last ob checkup, she told me that baby is sitting super low, and she was surprised that i wasn't feeling more pelvic pressure. i think that is a good thing for when labor actually starts. baby is already in position!
MOVEMENT baby is a wild thing. always wiggling and kicking and rolling. the rolls feel the weirdest. my belly starts to feel really tight and then suddenly there is a giant lump moving across it (usually the baby's booty!)
SLEEP i'm taking lots of naps. i can't sleep very long at a time - usually 4 hours is max, so naps are key.
THINGS THIS WEEK i started precepting a new girl at work, which means that i get to get paid extra to teach her how to do everything, and i sit around while she takes all the patients. a nice, relaxing way to work my last few weeks before maternity leave!
i've been swimming a lot lately, too. it feels so nice to be weightless for a while. the getting out part is always rough though.
LOOKING FORWARD TO today, i am looking forward to seeing everyone who is planning on coming after the baby arrives (who knows how i will feel about it tomorrow! hah!)
FUN FACT baby could already have an inch of hair. the head is about the same circumference as the abdomen.
