39 weeks!
Dates: Dec. 8, 2013
I am actually feeling pretty good. William has dropped, so sometimes he gets a little heavy, but I am still getting around pretty good and feel pretty good with the exception of occasional fatigue.
Size of baby... estimated weight on US at 37 weeks was 6# 8oz (50%tile)
Baby's Movement: William is a very active little guy. He still loves to kick me in the right flank and I see his little foot sticking out frequently. He has definitely dropped and my reflux is much improved, but I have to pee ALL the time!!
My Activity: I had a little bout of sacroillitis, that thank goodness resolved. It restricted me from doing much of anything, but now that it is healed!
Diet: Strangest cravings for me are milk (I never used to drink milk), now I drink 1-2 glasses a day! I also love ice water and ice, which is very strange for me as I typically drink luke warm or hot water (NEVER ice water!).
We are mostly prepared for out little guy, well as prepared as you can be! We have our pack and play set up, our basinet with some disposable diapers and LOTS of cloth diapers (all washed and ready to wear).
Big events.... My mother-in-law came down for a visit. We had a great time! then a couple weeks later my wonderful friend Krista with the help of my husband threw an incredible baby shower!! I had friends and family from D.C, Oklahoma, Texas, North Carolina and South Carolina. I felt very loved to have so many people travel such distances to come celebrate my little guy! Here are some pictures :)
I almost forgot to include my fabulous co-workers, who also threw me an amazing shower. I am so very lucky to be surrounded by such supportive friends! William has everything he could possibly need (I think).
