36 weeks

How far along? 36 weeks 3 days

Total weight gain/loss:  +26lbs total 

Maternity clothes?: Yep & this answer isn't going to change until he arrives & maybe not even for a while after.

Symptoms: Back pain, shortness of breath, hip pain, & decreased appetite/feeling of fullness. Let's add exhaustion as well as Braxton Hicks galore (I thought it was all baby movement, but I'm not so sure anymore).

Stretch marks?: Just my one lone hip stretchy.

Sleep: Pretty good still most nights. 

Movement: I thought I was feeling an abnormal amount of baby movement, but now I am thinking it may be contractions too. Yikes!

Food cravings: Sweets, sweets, sweets! And actually salt too, especially Pringles. Huh...that's a new one.

Gender: Baby Boy! <3

Labor Signs: Pretty sure the Braxton Hicks are in full force the last few days.

Belly Button in or out? In. Getting closer & closer all the time, but still not flat yet.

What I miss: Not being completely uncomfortable all the time. I really don't enjoy feeling like I am full of stuffing constantly.     .

What I am looking forward to: My OB appt on Friday. I want to make sure this baby is really head down for good!

Milestones: First signs of impending labor. I can't believe this kid could be here in less then 25 days!!
