40 Weeks

I. Am. Huge.

Me and Leo taken yesterday.

Pregnancy Highlights:

How Far Along: We made it to 40 weeks! 

Size of baby: 20-ish", 7.5-ish lbs

Total Weight Gain/Loss: 22 lbs 

Maternity Clothes: Absolutely. Except for sleeping wear and then I'm still in my favorite Loft pj pants and tank tops that I would only allow my husband to see me in *smile.

Gender: Can't believe we're down to hours/days before we find out!!

Movement: He/she is still somehow moving around in there. I often feel a little foot or knee on my side.Will never get sick of it.

Sleep: Friday night I didn't get up to the use the bathroom until 6:15 am. Um, that is incredible. Last night was back to being rough. Wonder what tonight will bring...

What I miss: Shopping at Loft, wearing my old clothes (my maternity clothes that actually fit are a taaaad slim right now), being able to sit comfortably, hugging my hubby without having a big tummy between us, exercising without bringing on Braxton Hicks contractions.

What I WILL miss: the crazy and exciting unknowns of what is to come.

Cravings: Nothing crazy. 

Symptoms: lots of BH contractions and other normal 40-weeks-pregnant-stuff that some of you may know about.

Best moment(s) this past week: My SIL, Nikki, surprising me with dinner and a pedicure!

Exercise: Not much exercise this past week, but when I can and feel up to it - biking, elliptical, lifting, using the stair climber and lots of stretching.

We made it to 40 weeks! I can't believe that our son/daughter will be here any hour or day! This pregnancy has been amazing and even today, I felt great and was full of energy. Sign of approaching labor?! Who knows, but I am grateful and blessed *smile.
