36 Weeks


How far along? 36 weeks!  The countdown is on!  At this point, if baby is still breech, due date is in 3 weeks!  Ahhhhhh!!!!!
Baby Size: Large canatloupe (19 - 22 inches, 6 pounds)
Total weight gain: 32.8 pounds
Maternity clothes? Yes
Stretch marks? No
Sleep: Not so great anymore.  I have braxton hicks that's so uncomfortable that it wakes me up a few times a night and of course the once a night to pee thing too.
Best moment this week: Last night when I was half asleep, Park put his hand on my stomach and the baby started doing her dancing/tumbling act and at one point moved so hard that it shook my entire stomach that it made him laugh out loud.  It was really funny. 

Miss Anything? Being able to sleep comfortably on my back and stomach.
Movement: Yes, all the time!
Food cravings: Still the same, juice and ice cream.
Anything making you queasy or sick: No

Gender: Girl
Labor Signs: No 
Symptoms: Some major braxton hicks discomfort.

Belly Button in or out? Out
Wedding rings on or off? Off

Happy or Moody most of the time: Usually I'm happy all the time, but this week has been rough.  I somehow caught a cold and have been feeling miserable :(
Looking forward to: Have a doctor's appointment this afternoon and looking forward to seeing if the baby has changed positions yet.  Last week when I saw the specialist and had been cleared for the placenta previa but have a breech baby, the doctor said there's only a 4% chance of her turning to the "right" position.  So...as of right now, I have a C-section scheduled for April 2nd, right at 39 weeks.  I can't believe the time is almost here!!!
