37 Weeks today and I must say its been a pretty relaxing day, not to mention I've been really tired today for some reason. I took 2 naps!! I've been all by myself since last night since Johnny decided to take off to Canada and party all weekend rather than stay home with his 9month pregnant wife........smart move right??!! He seems to think he knows more than the doctor and knows that I will not go into labor any time soon.
So I spent my time shopping of course and then doing stuff around the house. Caught some sun which felt great!
So I get the feeling from here on out nothing is really going to feel that much different, other than the constant poking and prodding from baby, I really can't say anything spectacular has happened this past week. I just feel more and more heavy when I walk, and am finishing up my What to Expect When You're Expecting book, finished packing hospital bag other than some random stuff that I'm still using. Not sure what to bring for baby to come home from hospital in. It's July and hot outside but I'm not sure how hot baby will be, is a onsie enough along with a blanket? Or should I bring a sleeper that is long sleeved? I don't know, I'm going to bring both. Also I have no idea how big this kid is going to be and whether or not he'll even fit into a newborn outfit or not. So I feel like I need to bring a newborn and a 0-3month size outfit. If he's going to come early I wish he would just get here already.
So according to all baby sources he is technically considered full term this week and will only chunk up from here on out......yikes!
So my pic this week is me taking it of myself in a mirror since Johnny was MIA.
How many weeks? 37
Baby is the size of : about 6.5-7lbs in weight this week - every baby is different though so who knows!
How am I feeling: I feel fine, just hot with the heat and a little heavy down under so I walk slower sometimes.
Can't eat:I just eat a lot of little meals throughout the day, actually I have just this past week noticed that I'm not even that hungry anymore. and when I went to the doctor I didn't gain any more weight which I've read tends to happen towards the end of pregnancy.
Energy level: well if today was any sort of indicator I was so sleepy all day
Maternity Clothes?
OF COURSE, although in the summer weather I've discovered long maxi skirts are great because I can buy my regular size and they just sit low under my belly.....so it was fun to be able to buy some non maternity stuff that I can wear post pregnancy :)
Movement: He is always moving around but you can totally tell that he has little to no room left inside because its no longer actual kicks its just moving around and usually its a foot in the same spot every time
Looking forward to: The little guy's arrival :)
