36 Weeks - Our Melon!

Baby Size:  Honeydew Melon

Total Weight gain/loss:  Probably around 24lbs

Maternity clothes:  It's all about the leggings. Thank goodness my largest part of pregnancy is in the winter. I don't know how I would survive otherwise.

Stretch Marks:  None so far...we'll see what things look like after birth

Sleep:  Some hip pain occasionally but otherwise i'm still sleeping like a rock

Best moment this week:  Running around with friends and quiet time with Adam. We have such great friends in Zurich. We've gone out to dinner recently and to hockey games. It's been nice to just hangout with people and do fun things, before the baby gets here. Adam and I also spent a lot of time over our "Stay-cation" just sitting on the couch by the Christmas Tree reading our parenting books and it was so quiet. A co-worker's wife last night said that was one thing she really misses now. Of course she has 3 boys =) So we are doing our best to enjoy our quiet, relaxing time for the next few weeks.

Miss anything:  I don't miss anything on a regular basis, but when we cook breakfast on the weekends and Adam has over easy eggs I am a little jealous. Or when he has an awesome italian sandwich with spicy salami i'm super jealous.

Movement:  Yes, he kept wiggling around near my belly button yesterday and I was afraid it would pop out. It was like he was teasing me...maybe it will and then nope back to another spot. All day long he was messing with me.

Food cravings:  Still love my milk and Adam is having the same craving. We both chug like a liter of milk a day now =) I love that he is sharing my cravings it makes me laugh all the time. My mom did send us a ton of homemade chocolate covered pretzels, and cookies and I think Adam and I have attacked them really well. Not a whole let left!

Anything making you queasy or sick:  Nope

Have you started to show yet:  Yes and I'm looking forward to not showing in 4 weeks or less. Not more PLEASE!!!

Gender:  Boy

Labor Signs:  None that I can tell?

Belly Button in or out:  Holding in for dear life

Wedding rings on or off:  They are off for now. I kept swelling randomly during the day so I didn't want to risk it.

Mood:  Happy and switching between relaxed and nervous/excited.

Looking forward to:  Our dr's appointment on Jan 10th! Hopefully he has moved around to the head down position and we can finally get a good picture of him. He has been so stubborn and sleeping with his arms over his face every time. Looks just like his daddy in the mornings when he doesn't want to get out of bed =)

Due Date:  February 1st
