36, 37, 38 Weeks & time to put your guesses in

38 weeks this weekend...whaaaaat how did that happen.

Baby: Full term! So since I guess theoretically she could come at any time time now (even though it doesn't feel like it's that close yet) put your guesses in for due date and birth height/weight! For full disclosure, at my appointment on the 6th, the doctor actually said babins is feeling and measuring just a tad small so she may need some time to bulk up. As far as timing, I've obviously never done this before so I have absolutely no idea if I'm even getting close, but I am feeling September vibes and hoping she comes maybe a few days before her Oct. 1 due date. Whoever is closest on the stats gets..........the satisfaction of a guess well made.

Feeling: Hungry. It's not quite as bad as the all-day-hand-to-mouth of the first trimester, but it's gotten back to the point where I can't sleep through the night without waking up starving and needing to eat at least once. I sincerely hope the extra food is going straight to the baby, because heaven knows I didn't need 8 waffles for breakfast.

Things I don't like:

• Sitting down for any prolonged period of time
• Putting on socks, or pants, or anything that requires balance or bending over
• Rolling over in the night

Things I do like:

• Frozen bananas, almond milk, oats, greek yogurt, almond butter smoothie. I have it once or twice a day.
• Napping to HypnoBirth recordings
• Enjoying these last peaceful weeks of childless couple time
• Prenatal massage scheduled for a week from today, I've had full length dreams about it twice already. Cannot wait.
• Baby kicks. Even the hard ones that kinda hurt.

In the last couple weeks we have:

• Graduated from HypnoBirth classes and pre-registered at the hospital
• Installed the car seat base
• Typed out our "birth preferences"
• Sewed car seat canopy
• Bought diapers for the first time!
• Packed hospital bags
• Ordered a few baby headbands. Is 15 too many? Didn't think so.
