Baby Bump | 9 Months + 2 Weeks



How far along: 38 Weeks / 9 Months + 2 Weeks
Due Date: December 4, 2015 was our original due date. However, the doctor we saw at our maternal fetal medicine ultrasound showed us that baby is measuring ahead and we are now at November 30, 2015 for our due date based on baby measurements - which is likely more accurate anyway. I can't believe it's only weeks away! November sure did come up fast this year!
Baby Size: Approx. 19-22 in. / 6.5 lbs. / about the size of a swiss chard (what's that? lol!) 
Weight Gain: 
Gender: GIRL 
Sleep: I am so exhausted by the end of the day lately that I sleep great. I've only been getting up a few times a night lately and thankfully I am able to fall right back asleep!
I am feeling: This week I have been having a lot of ups and downs. Emotionally, physically, mentally... trying to prepare everything, make sure it's perfect, make sure I am ready, Lennon is ready, Dan is ready for time off. There's not much left to do after this weekend being so productive - thank goodness for a hardworking hubs who got the carseat, bassinet and crib done this weekend! Nothin' like procrastinating as second time parents! :) 
Cravings: This week my cravings have been water, water, water and LOTS of it! I feel like I am never hydrated enough lately. I love pineapple, sandwiches (with deli meat... whatever!), and sweets. All I want is my mom's homemade snickerdoodles. I mean, I won't be too terribly sad if I don't make it to Thanksgiving dinner because I know there will be leftovers BUT, I really need some sweets in my life before baby pops out.
Currently loving: I am loving that I have a bassinet next to my bed, a crib in the baby nursery (with new Aden & Anais sheets that are SO stinking soft!), and car seat in the car! It's so real... even Dan said, all we need now is a baby to come! :)  
Currently hating: I can't touch my feet and desperately need a pedicure, I can't put my socks on so I am barefoot 24/7, I don't fit into any maternity clothes right now since my belly is so low, I can't breathe just from walking up or down the basement steps... and, what else? I am just over being pregnant right now. SO over it.
