Baby 3.0: Week 40

How far along? 39 weeks
Weight gain/loss: 32 lbs
Maternity clothes? I officially have four shirts that fit. That's it.   
Stretch marks? One single new one on my belly button. 
Sleep? So sleepy all the time.      
Best moment this week? Only 7 days until my due date!  
Movement: This little guy is nearly out of room, so even when he does move it's not very comfortable. 
Food cravings: Nothing really. I'm not really hungry anymore.   
Gender: Boy :-) 
Labor signs? Contractions every day and a some minor dilation. Fingers crossed he makes his debut soon!
Belly button in or out? Outie!What I miss? Sleeping on my belly.
What I am looking forward to? Seeing this guy's little face!
Weekly wisdom: As much as you try you can't make baby come any sooner than they want to. 
Milestones: Only a week left!

Baby 3.0 - week 36

How far along? 35 weeks 5 days
Weight gain/loss: 25lbs :-/
Maternity clothes? Even those are starting to get snug as you can see in this picture.  
Stretch marks? Surprisingly no new ones yet.
Sleep? It's hit or miss. I wish I could get comfortable. And unfortunately for Justin I've recently started snoring so he's not sleeping much better.      
Best moment this week? 35 weeks means only 35 days left until my due date. If this baby follows in his sisters' footsteps he'll be here even sooner than that!  
Movement: He's quite the mover and now that he's running out of space it's getting a little uncomfortable actually.     
Food cravings: Still sour cream.   
Gender: Boy :-) 
Labor signs? Contractions every day now. Nothing regular or overly painful, but daily nonetheless. 
Belly button in or out? For the first time in any pregnancy it's actually an outie! What I miss? Sleeping comfortably in any position and being able to move without waddling.
What I am looking forward to? Meeting this little guy!
Weekly wisdom: Relax and go with the flow. Or at least try. 

Milestones: We're in the home stretch. Less than a month left!
