39/40 Week Update

Well this is late. I had it all planned out and wanted to post it but Doug was being a computer hog...I mean he was getting his last paper done, so I never got a chance to post. In the interest of having a complete blog I am posting now :)

How far along?: the picture was taken July 25, JD's due date
How big is baby?: anywhere from 6-8 pounds is normal at this point and 20 inches long. the size of a watermelon!
Weight gain?: packed it on these last 2 weeks. I hit 30 pounds, but that's still not bad
Stretch marks?: yep....a small price to pay
Maternity clothes?: yep...I even ended up getting a bathing suit!
Sleep?: can't complain. I've been REALLY tired
Best moment this week?: I felt him have the hiccups for the first time Sunday (July 24). So neat!! Doug bought The Wonder Years and we've been watching it together before going to bed. I will always treasure how we cuddle and he rubs my belly and talks to JD.
Food cravings?: Brownies and milk
Gender?: better still be a boy
Movement?: Constantly, especially at night, he likes to get Daddy's attention
Belly button?: still an innie :)
What I miss?: bending over...really hard to clean the house without doing that!
