Baby Bird – 40 Weeks

How far along? 40 weeks

Total weight gain/loss: A total of 12 pounds.

Maternity clothes? Yes… though even maternity clothes aren’t good at covering my belly anymore.

Stretch marks? Same old ones I’ve had since Boogie!

Sleep: Sleep… I haven’t gotten much sleep this week. J started his new job so the kids and I have been commuting with him and staying at the grandparents’ houses so that we’re closer to the hospital and J when I go into labor. Last night I slept okay though, and J let me sleep in a little too.

Best moment this week: Nothing to do with Bird, but J started his new job… and he’s SO incredibly calm and happy… which in turn makes our kids and ME happy as well!

Movement: Her movements are bigger and more visible now, though she’s running out of “womb” so it hurts… 🙁

Food cravings: Sweets… chocolate and peppermint things mainly.

Gender: Girl!

Labor signs: Nothing. Nada. Zilch.

Belly button in or out? It’s pushed out.. and weird.

Wedding rings on or off? Definitely a little snugger this week. I’ve had to take them off a few times because they hurt 🙁

What I miss: Not feeling like a house… really. 

What am I looking forward too: The countdown is on… she WILL be here soon! 

Weekly Wisdom: Rest. Rest. Rest. I know it’s hard, I’ve had a hard time finding time to rest… but I know that if I DON’T the labor will be hard AND I will be pooped when I come home!

Milestones: 40 weeks… that in itself is a milestone!
