Baby P {36 Weeks}




how far along?  36 weeks
how are you measuring? we had our last sonogram this week and the baby was measuring in the 40th percentile for a 36 weeker
size of baby? According to baby center Baby is about 18 1/2 inches long, about almost 6 pounds, and the weight of a crenshaw melon. The sonogram showed the baby being at 6lb. 2oz.
heartbeat?  didn't get this stat this week but I think its safe to assume its still around the 150s
total weight gain/loss? +24 lbs  
maternity clothes? I only have a few maternity clothes that still fit, most are too small! Luckily I'm not working anymore so I can wear tank tops and Trevor's t-shirts around the house.
stretch marks? not yet, but I'm not sure I have much more room to grow until they pop up!
sleep? not too bad.  My bathroom breaks are now about every two-three hours throughout the night which I think is nature's way of preparing me for those night time feedings I'll be waking up for soon.
best moment this week? Celebrating Trevor's birthday with one of our last date nights without having to find a sitter :), Having a great report at the my 36 week dr. appointment, and spending the weekend with Trevor's parents giving the yard a spring makeover. 
movement? Lots of it! Still up in my ribs a lot, ouch! And lots of hiccups, which I love!
food cravings? Finally got an icee this week, and it was amazing!  Trevor stopped at the gas station right across the street from the Hospital after our appointment this week and we saw a sign that said $1 icees any size!  I had to run in and get one and they have Dr. Pepper icees! I'm thinking this will have to be a weekly tradition now after my appointments :) 
gender predictions? I really have no clue!
what i miss: not waddling :) Being able to go from sitting to standing or turning from my left side to my right side easily!
what i'm looking forward to: Crossing more items off my final "before baby comes" check list.
how are you feeling? I guess pretty good for being 36 weeks pregnant.  I definitely feel uncomfortable most of the time, but not so miserable that I want the baby to come early yet.  I still have a few things I'd like to get done first!
