36 Weeks!!

How far along: 36 weeks and 6 days!
How much weight gained: I lost track! I stopped paying attention this week, but I do know I gained a few more pounds since last weeks visit.
Symptoms: I am getting acid reflux often at night, some slight cramping, but the back pain is no longer consistant and my sleeping pattern has been pretty decent.
Sleep: I notice that I toss and turn a lot in my sleep, but I am falling asleep quickly and waking up easily in the morning.
Best Moment of the Week: Jeff came home in one piece from his camping trip! It has been a pretty quiet week for us. My weekend was filled with rest and some cleaning.
Cravings: None, not even ice cream! My appetite is still decreasing so I don't get hungry for many things.
Movement: Her movement has slowed way down the past few days. Last week I had some pelvic pain, so I think she slid down a little and she doesn't have nearly as much room. When I lay down at night I am able to get my kick counts in, but it takes longer then ever before.
Milestone of the Week: My weekly checkup was today and everything went well. My blood pressure was slightly higher then normal, but still in the good range. I gained some weight again. The baby's heart rate was 146, so that was also good. The doctor said I am a finger tip dilated and 70% effaced. So things are starting to progress, but she believes we are still on target for the due date.

This weekend will be filled with renovations on the house. Jeff is going to start painting the bathroom and kitchen tomorrow. Hopefully by the end of the weekend the new floor will be done and we will be in the final stretch of the renovations! I plan to finished clearing of my office, and the left over items in Brynnlee's room this weekend. I am hoping to paint her room next weekend and hang up the final details! Things are slowly, but surely, coming together.


Only 22 days left!
