xoxo,

Lindsey, Baby W, Ellie & Gus

38 Weeks + 3 days!

Pregnancy Highlights:

How far along: 38 weeks + 3 days...so close!!!

Size of the baby: He weighs about 6.8lbs and is over 19 1/2 inches long. His organs have matured and he is ready for life outside the womb! -Baby Center

Movement: My favorite part of being pregnant!

Cravings: Sweets and iced tea (I normally hate iced tea...weird)!

Sleep: I get up about once a night for a restroom break.

Symtoms: Heartburn...and cankles by the end of the day!! I "think" I have had some braxton hicks contractions too.

Doctor's Appt. on 9/20: No new news! He has not dropped or dialated...he is just hanging out head down on the left side. He was sleeping during the appt. so his heart rate was only 132.

Best moments of the week: We received our furniture yesterday!!! And putting the car seat in the car...I love seeing it every time I get in!

What I'm looking forward to: Ryan's b-day tomorrow and getting the nursery ready for the little guy!

xoxo,

Lindsey

Me & the boys!
Pregnancy Highlights:
How far along: 37 weeks...full term!!!
Size of the baby: He weighs 6 1/3 lbs and measures a bit over 19 inches head to heel. -Baby Center
Weight gained: 30 lbs...I have caught Ryan in weight...yikes! At least its for a good cause!
Movement: He is moving all over!
Cravings: Candy Corn!!!
Sleep: Well, sleep is getting a little bit harder...I wake up when I turn and make a trip to the restroom about once a night. I think I am finally experiencing what everyone warned me about.
Symptoms: Heartburn and I'm slowing down a little bit!
Doctor's Appts. on 9/9 and 9/13: We go to the doctor every week now! The doctor checked my cervix and I have not dialated or effaced yet and the baby has not dropped (Ryan and my mom think he has since the appt. though). I am measuring only 1 week ahead now...38 cm. And the little guy's heartbeat was 154. He said everything looks great!
Best moments of the week: My friend, Erin had her baby on 9/10...Wally! It was so fun to meet the precious little guy! My other friend, Leah had a very nice GIRL baby shower/tea party on 9/12...it was fun to see all of the cute girl stuff! And we picked out furniture that will be delivered on 9/23...yay!!!

What I'm looking forward to: My prenatal massage on Sat. courtesy of my siblings and a weekend at home!

xoxo,
Lindsey
