36 Weeks.


How far along: 36 weeks, 6 days
Maternity clothes: Yes... but still trying to get creative with my "non maternity clothes" 
(hence the clothes I'm wearing in this picture)
Stretch marks: Nope! Using coconut oil- love that stuff.
Sleep: Sleep has been so-so lately. I always seem to be waking up to achy hips but sleeping with a pillow in between my knees helps! (I feel so pregnant saying that)
Best moment this week: Starting my WEEKLY doctor appointments! Holy crap... I can't believe it's already that time! They are a little concerned that my belly is a little small still- apparently I'm measuring at 31 weeks when I should be at 36 weeks, so they're scheduling another ultrasound for this coming week at my next appointment just to check her measurements. To be honest she's always measured right on track- I just have a realllllly long torso so the little lady has lots of room to stretch!
Miss anything: Being comfortable sitting... we went to see a movie this past week and I just sat there during the movie thinking about how uncomfortable the chairs were! I swear we've gone to that theater a bajillion times and it's never been an issue before.
Movement: Yes. Loving feeling hiccups and random stretches. I've noticed that she likes to stretch pushing out her bum and arms at the same time! It's the craziest feeling having my stomach being stretched in different directions! I love it though.
Symptoms: Those darn achy hips and wait for it... braxton hicks contractions!
Food cravings: Popsickles! Can't get enough of them.
Anything making you queasy or sick: Still frozen dinners & anything microwavable. Grilled chicken sort of makes me queasy too... I made some the other night and couldn't even finish it. So weird because I used to eat it about 3x a week before I was pregnant. 
Have you started to show yet: Yes... getting bigger every week!
Gender prediction: Girl
Labor signs: Well the little lady has officially moved head down & dropped... she's getting ready! 
Belly button in or out: Still completely flat- I'd guess before she comes though it'll be an outtie! So close.
Wedding rings on or off: Depends on the day... it's about half & half. 
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy!
Looking forward to: Meeting our little girl!! We're getting more anxious everyday.
