Turner this week…
-Turner is shedding is his last bits of vernix caseosa (the white goo keeping baby's skin moist) and lanugo (downy hair).
-His head is the same circumference as his abdomen and his head could be covered in an inch or so of hair.
Size of the baby?
Turner is the size of a pumpkin! Clearly...it has to be a small pumpkin because there is no way he is the size of those big pumpkins we carve...or is he?!?!
Total Weight Gain/Loss?
Total Weight Gain/Loss?

Wearing the same clothes and I don't care :) He will be here any day and I am not buying any more new clothes until after he's born and I have lost a few of the lb's.
Stretch Marks?

The list is all done except hanging a few more items in the nursery and getting the glider. I pretty much keep the house clean everyday and organize other areas of the house because I am nesting like crazy!
Movement?
Still moving. Not as much as he use to but still feel him so many times within' the hour time that my doctor tells me to keep track of.
Food Cravings?

He is for sure head down. I am between 2-3cm dilated. He has officially dropped also...according to the doctor. I had what I think was a 'contraction' last night.

On and still not getting tight! wooohooo...
Sleep?
This week has not been good for sleep. I wake up every other night usually. I sit there thinking my alarm is going to go off soon and then when I look @ my phone, it's not even close to the time I set my alarm. Even though I don't feel the urge to pee, I still get up to go.
What I am looking forward to?

For him to come. Doctor thinks (based on my progress so far) that he will come early, but of course that is no guarantee. The anticipation is KILLING me...but it's also fun!
So soon! You look great!
ReplyDeleteAwww, you're looking adorable as ever!! Question-- what have you been doing for workouts throughout your pregnancy? (sorry if I missed reading that at some point) I know you're super active so I'm curious as to how your later pregnancy weeks/months affected your energy/stamina etc!
ReplyDeleteAnd now THANK YOU, I am craving pizza as well-- even though I have a delicious salad planned for lunch! ;-)
EEK! You're SO CLOSE!!!! :) And now I'm itchy from reading about ticks. So thanks for that. HAHA!
ReplyDeleteAlso - where is that tank top from?!?! SO CUTE!
I tell you this every week, but you seriously look amazing! You and Tate need to have lots of babies, cuz you look good pregnant :)
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to hear that little Turner is here! I'm guessing sometime this weekend he'll make an appearance! Hopefully you don't have much planned :)
You look awesome! I loveee that shirt! The ticks are so bad already!! I've pulled lots off of my dog and I pulled one out of MY HAIR a couple of days ago! It was just hanging on a piece of hair and my neighbor needed to get it because I was so grossed out by it!
ReplyDeleteSOOO CLOSE!! 2-3cm, ANYDAY!!!! SO EXCITED FOR YOU!
ReplyDeletebtw Sam's pizza is SO SO SOOOO GOOD!
