38 Weeks!


Week 38:

How much weight gained: 1lb this week, 10lbs overall.  Wahooo!
Latest food craving: Donuts, chocolate and fruit!
Anything making you queasy or sick: Red sauce and scrambled eggs still sound really gross!  Also when I don’t eat enough I still get sick.
Mostly happy or moody: Happy
Wedding rings on or off:  On
Worst Thing about being pregnant this week: First taste of heartburn
L Also most nights I just feel huge and miserable after dinner.
Best Thing about being pregnant this week: More healthy doctor appointments, and the reality that Matthew could be here any time!
Update from within:  My hard working parents started off these two weeks strong.  Dad was gone on and off for work, and mom worked hard to finish all the projects she had in mind for my room.  I really love how it turned out, and can just imagine lots of time sleeping in that cozy nursery.  Mom and dad also finished all of the items on the To-Do-Before-Baby List.  My car seat is installed, and the bases in both mom and dad’s cars.  Everyone (including me!) has a bag packed and ready for the hospital.  My parents finished three weeks of childbirth classes as the hospital, and though overwhelming at points, they both think it helped settle some nerves about my upcoming arrival.  They even got an extensive tour of labor and delivery where I’ll be born very soon!  Mom also went to an afternoon breastfeeding class, which helped her feel more prepared for feeding me, and that’s obviously important to me!  Other than that mom and dad have enjoyed going on a lot of dates lately, and being lazy together in our quiet house.  I guess they know I’ll take up a lot of time and effort, so they are taking advantage of just being a couple these last few weeks!
