Well we've made it to 36 weeks, only 1 month to go! I had a doctors appointment on Tuesday and I was so excited to see if there was any progress. My doctor was in surgery at the hospital so I saw a new doctor and she confirmed that baby girl is head down, I'm 50% effaced, & a little over 1cm dilated! That's all I was hoping for - a little progress.
I think I was just about the same at 36 weeks with Kinley so maybe that means baby #2 will come a little sooner?! I won't hold my breath... BUT the doctor did say "I don't think you'll see your due date" as she breezed out of the room. I really hope she's right because I am more than ready to meet this baby! Our house may not be ready but I sure am!
I started getting nervous about labor & delivery this week so I'm planning to open up my binder from our classes that we took less than 2 years ago. It's amazing how much I feel like I've forgotten.
Kinley turned 18 months old Tuesday morning so I really wanted to get a few pictures of her by herself, too, but this was hard enough to capture. She thinks she's the new photographer and loves taking pictures on our phones.

Pregnancy
Highlights:
How far along: 36
weeks
Size of baby: 18.5 inches & 6
pounds, the size of a melon.
Total weight gain/loss: 25+
pounds.
Maternity clothes: Love.them. But I'm
very excited to buy non-maternity spring & summer clothes!
Gender: It's a GIRL! I think we're getting close on a name!
Movement: There is always a knee, foot, or booty sticking out when she's awake. Some nights she even keeps me up!
Sleep: Pretty normal this week but I've also been exhausted.
What I miss: Doing anything with ease.
I'm finally at the really uncomfortable stage of pregnancy. Also, having a flat(ish) stomach, I can't wait until I can see my toes again!
Cravings: Unhealthy food. My eating habits are going to have to do a 180 after baby is born!
Symptoms: Occasional low back pain and pelvic pressure. I think my acid reflux problem is finally gone since I haven't taken my nightly Tums lately, ha!
Memorable moment for the week: Shopping for "the girls" and buying matching outfits. Yep, I'm going to be that mom! (Sorry I'm not sorry...) :)
