week 39

oops- forgot about weeks 37-38! 

Week: 39

Weight gain: it's up and down at this point- few weeks ago I had lost 2 lbs, then the next week I gained almost 5, then this week I had lost 1.5...total weight gain around 36-37 lbs which is more than I had initially wanted to gain, but still not too bad. 

Clothing: I'm pretty much living in my stretchy yoga pants and giant t-shirts 

Best moment so far: knowing that soon he'll be here!

Movement: weird movements as he has "dropped" and is way low down now. I can feel his hiccups in my butt...very weird!!

Food cravings: food is funny these days, I can't ever decide what I want to eat 

Symptoms: heartburn has returned :(

Feeling: ready for Parker to be here and to be not pregnant any more!

Sleep: off and on- using Benadryl helps me sleep most of the night

Rings: still off until after baby comes

Things I miss: moving around easily, everything takes a LOT of effort these days

At my last appointment (this past Thursday) I was 1.5 cm and 60% effaced. We've officially had 2 false alarms, so we are very ready at this point! It's definitely a huge lesson in patience and humility. We are totally not in control of this, just leaving it up to God and know that He will bring this baby when he's ready!
