37 Week Baby Bump Update!!

37 weeks! 

2 more weeks. 

I am in shock. 

How can we be down to just 14 more days!!

Ps. I meant labor inducing advice, but it was 530 am when I made & and pregnancy brain got the best of me!

Weight gain: At around 17.5 lbs this weeks. Went up a little. Doctor is pleased which makes me happy. 

Blood Pressure: As far as I know, its been good. Haven't had any other checks recently. 

Food aversions: None

Morning sickness: None

Appetite : Back to normal and wanting to eat everything!!

Cravings: Food in general? I want to eat tons of ice creams, and cookies, cereals, pasta, breads & easy mac. So I guess pretty much everything that I can't have.

Blood Sugars: Noticed have been overall a little lower. I am trying to cut my lunches down some now that we are getting close. Lunches are still the only time they are high and this was because I was told I needed to break the diet to try and gain weight. 

Clothes: Leggings, sweats and maternity pants. Most shirts barley cover the bump now. 

Headaches: None 

Sleeping: WOOF!! This is one that changed in the last week. I diagnosed myself with pregnancy induced carpel tunnel, as I was waking up in the middle of the night with numb achey hands. So then I read propping yourself can help, and then I got two leg cramps!! Now I pee 3-4 times a night. So sleep as eluded me!

Stretchmarks: Just right at my belly button piercing :( It makes me sad, but whatever! 

  Bellybutton: So outtie it makes me laugh!

   Wedding Rings: Still off. Just because the fat knuckles. They still don't look swollen. Maybe the weight gain?

Backaches: Very occasional.

Heart Burn: A little more at times. 

Energy and Motivation: Normal, but getting sleepier soon 

Emotions: Anxious, ready to be done, happy, excited!

  Movements: I track every morning and night. You are suppose to get 10 movements in an hour. I have been still getting 10 movements in a matter of minutes. 

Contractions: A few braxton hicks here & there. Nothing too intense. 

Gender: Boy!

Name: Greyson :)

Missing Anything?: Food, not feeling guilty for eating food. Bending over and picking things up, pants that zipper. The usual I am sure. 

Updates:

• We finished our birthing classes, I only went to 3/5 due to them being a good hike away from where we live and not wanting to go into labor on the road, alone. 
• NST looks amazing for baby, but does show I am having contractions. (Hoping this means maybe I will go into natural labor before our c-section!)

Next Appointment:

Next week.
