38 Weeks

Since I don't know how long it's going to be until I pop, I decided to do a quick 38 week post just in case baby girl comes early. 

How far along: 38 weeks

Gender: Little GIRL!

Weight gain: About 30 lbs

Maternity clothes: Those aren't even fitting me anymore.

Stretch marks: Nope! I've been lucky.

Belly button in or out: Hasn't popped completely out, but it's definitely not looking normal.

Wedding rings on or off: Off. My hands are so swollen that I had to struggle to even get them off. It's been a few days and I can still see the indents where they were. 

Sleep: What's that? I've been up since 3:30 am today. Not sleeping much at all anymore. I better get used to that though. 

Symptoms: Still baaaaaad acid reflux. My ankles and feet are so swollen my shoes barely fit anymore. I'm getting pregnancy induced carpal tunnel. I wake up and my hands are numb and swollen and it hurts to even bend my fingers. My back is killing me; the other night I could barely walk. I'm really, really uncomfortable.

Best moment this week: We got maternity pictures taken last week! I'm super excited to see them!

Miss anything: Sleep, being able to eat a full meal without having to worry if it's going to make me sick or give me killer heartburn. 

Movement: Still very squirmy! I've given up on the no caffeine since I'm not sleeping much anymore and about an hour after I have a coffee, she'll go nuts. 

Cravings: Still chocolate. A more recent one has been garlic. I've made myself garlic noodles like three times in the  past week. Which is weird, because garlic was one of my aversions when I first got pregnant. 

Looking forward to: Not being pregnant anymore? Haha, I can't wait to meet her and have my body back! But, I can't afford to pop early so she can stay in there a couple more weeks (max).
