38 Weeks

How far along? 38 Weeks!! Only 2 to go until our EDD =)

How big is baby?: between 18-20 inches long and 5.5 to 7 lbs! The size of a watermelon-wow thats big and it certainly explains why I have to pee so frequently and can't breath as easily

Maternity clothes?: God yes! in fact most of my shirts are getting too short on me! Only 2 weeks to go though so I'll just keep pulling them down for now and I have a few extra long ones that are okay

Stretch marks?: Unfortunately the inevitable has happened. I do now have a couple small stretch marks. I noticed them the other night and when I pointed them out to John his remarks were "Where? I don't see them. Oh there? You can barely see them-I wouldn't even count those as real stretch marks" - Oh how I love that man!! hehe

Sleep?: still sleeping really well for the most part- hubby however is not sleeping as well. Between me not being able to breath as well, my snoogle and my tossing and turning/grunting and groaning to move he is counting his good sleep nights as basically over! haha

Best moment this week?: I'm going to say seeing my sister even though that was last thursday! It was so great to see her! I also will sya the shower the lovely ladies of NB threw for me on Saturday. So much fun and so sweet of them!

Food cravings: nothing really

Gender: Team Green! (Getting more and more excited to find out if Baby Walker is a boy or a girl)

Belly button in or out?: still in but shallow

Movement?: yes-still lots of movement. Baby is stretching lots and still giving jabs to my ribs on the right side

What I miss?: nothing
What I'm looking forward to:  meeting our baby!! I can't believe we're so close to meeting our son or daughter!
Weekly wisdom: Enjoy your time as just a couple now and get as much sleep as possible

Milestones: Getting things in order to go on maternity leave-WHOA
