37 weeks

so i was lazy the last few weeks and didn't even do a weekly update post.... sue me...lol
Large and in Charge!
Size of baby: According to babycenter.com the baby is about the length of a Swiss Chard (??). I prefer The Bump's comparison which is now a Watermelon...yep that sounds right.

Your baby is now considered "full term," even though your due date is three weeks away. If you go into labor now, his lungs will likely be mature enough to fully adjust to life outside the womb. (Some babies need a bit more time, though. So if you're planning to have a repeat c-section, for example, your practitioner will schedule it for no earlier than 39 weeks unless there's a medical reason to intervene earlier.)Your baby weighs 6 1/3 pounds and measures a bit over 19 inches, head to heel Many babies have a full head of hair at birth, with locks from 1/2 inch to 1 1/2 inches long. But don't be surprised if your baby's hair isn't the same color as yours. Dark-haired couples are sometimes thrown for a loop when their children come out as blonds or redheads, and fair-haired couples have been surprised by Elvis look-alikes. And then, of course, some babies sport only peach fuzz.
Total Weight Gain/Loss: +33 pounds approximately.
Maternity Clothes: this hasn't changed recently. i can not wait to be back in regular clothes.
Gender: BOY!
Movement: Still lots of movement, I can't believe he still has any room in there to move but he's still doing body rolls on a regular basis although some of the movements have become more jerky recently.
What I miss: pretty much anything that is considered normal activity, putting on shoes, laying on my stomach, being able to walk anywhere without being out of breath.
Sleep: I get up to pee like a million times but night time has gotten much better since i started using a stool to get in and out of bed.
Symptoms: mainly just all over soreness.
Cravings: strawberry smoothies
Doctor's Appointment: I'm adding this since I'm now going every week. As of last Friday I'm still not dilated at all which is good. Also, she is guessing he's around 7-7 1/2 pounds! Which would explain why I'm so uncomfortable. I also tested negative for the Group B Strep test which is good and means I won't need to get antibiotics.
Best Moment this week: being completely done with my baby prep. all clothes and bottles are washed. bedding is on, car seat is in and bag is packed. i am as ready as i am going to be until he gets here.
What I am looking forward to: just ready to meet my little man already and having a huge plate of sushi.... :)
