36 weeks ... 9 months ... only 4 more weeks to go. At this point sunshine and rainbows are out the window. Everything is work from sitting to standing to walking to cleaning. It is no longer comfortable to just sit anywhere for more than 10 minutes whether it is my desk chair, couch, car or floor. In a matter of minutes some part of my body goes numb and falls asleep and my back feels like it is going to break in half -- especially by the end of the day -- damn gravity! Also, this kicking to the ribs is far from comfortable and often causes the skin right below my ribs to go numb all day and let me tell you it might be one of the most uncomfortable feelings and is something that does not go away until I fall asleep at night. But I think the I can manage with these things as long as it is not for too much longer.
Ok, there is my little rant ... now on to the survey.
How far along? 36 weeks
How big is baby? About 18-20 inches long and 6 pounds (according to babycenter.com).
Sleep? Touch and go really .. between Lexi deciding she needs to go outside twice a night now and not being able to get comfortable I am lucky to get a solid 4-5 hours of sleep
Best moment this week? That this past weekend was rain free!
Movement? Of course ... hiccups, rolls, kicks, punches ...
Food cravings? Nothing really
Gender? Team Blue!
Labor signs? Braxton Hicks daily
What I miss? Energy
What I am looking forward to? The last stretch of this long journey!
Weekly wisdom?You are not superman ... always ask for help when needed
