39 Weeks

Not such a cute picture but at 39 weeks preggers, this is what you get!

Look at the progress of the 4 seasons porch!  Walls painted, mantle up!

Pumpkin this week...

~ He is building more fat and getting rid of the outer layer of skin!
~ His vernix and lanugo are almost gone!
~ Baby's lungs have reached full maturity and he is practicing breathing!

Size of the Baby?
They say a watermelon and that feels about right!

Total Weight Gain/Loss?

+1 more freaking pound and to be honest, I don't care!

Maternity Clothes?

Nothing new but I did buy two new workout tops.  I had one like it before I was pregnant but they are perfect for pregnancy- I'm actually wearing one in this week's picture.

Stretch Marks?

Still none!!  YAY!

Best Moments?

When the calendar changed over to October 1st!  It is our baby delivery month!!  I'm so freaking excited!

Movement?
More than I thought there would be right now.  Our little man is super active for not having too much space left.  But I secretly love ever squirm and kick!

Nausea/Vomitting?

Ummm- yes which was weird.  Twice this week I lost my breakfast... could that be signs of labor pending?!  I hops so!

Labor Signs?

More contractions but nothing frequent enough or intense enough to say I'm in labor.  But I've never hoped so badly to look like I peed my pants.  Come on water break!

Gender?

BOY!

Belly Button In or Out?
It's out there for all to see!

Wedding Rings On or Off?

It's off :(  I really wanted to make it through but my fingers are pretty swollen this week so I'm wearing my "push gift" band.

Sleep?

Not a chance this week.  Between a cold that I got last weekend and my uncomfortable body, sleep is minimal.

Wisdom?

Stay busy!  This waiting game is hard so the busier you can be during the last week or two, the better!

What am I most excited about?

Meeting our son!  Come on baby- we can't wait to meet you!!

A comparison of the last 30 weeks... 9 weeks, 19 weeks, 29 weeks, and 39 weeks

Just waiting over here,
