36 Week Update

How far along? 36 weeks.

Due Date: February 3, 2011

Total weight gain/loss: Somewhere in the +24 range.

Maternity clothes? I think that by now, this question is a bit silly. :)

Sleep: Not so great. The weird/vivid dreams are making
a comeback, though, so I am apparently getting
SOME quality sleep!

Best moment this week: Seeing my son on ultrasound.. in 3D!

Thank you, awesome ultrasound tech!

Movement: All the time.

Food cravings: Yesterday I was suddenly in the mood
for a cherry limeade from Sonic.
Of course, we ran right out and got me one. :)

Food aversions: Justin and I both could barely eat the pasta

I made for dinner last night. Either I had an aversion and he

had a sympathy aversion, or dinner just wasn't that good. ha!

 
Gender: It's a boy!

Labor Signs: Still having BH contractions,

and according to my internal exam today,

I am 1 cm dilated and 60% effaced!

Belly Button in or out? Still an innie.

What I miss: Not having a tingly/numb hand...

thank you, pregnancy induced carpal tunnel!

What I am looking forward to: Experiencing labor... yep, I said it.

Maybe I'm crazy, but I'm getting really excited.

I am so ready to meet my son!

  

Milestones: I am dilating and effacing.. hooray!

28 days left until the due date,

but the doctor doesn't think we'll make it that long.

Here I am at 36 weeks...

...and here are some photos of my sweet boy!
