How far along? 36w6d
Total weight gain/loss: +60. My weight gain has really slowed in the past 4 weeks. I've only gained about a lb per week. Looks like I should be able to keep it under my goal!
Stretch marks? Yes, 2 small fine sets that I described last week
Sleep: OMG no - I've been sleeping awful!
Best moment this week: See Labor Signs
Movement: Yes and it really hurts!
Food cravings: No, not really
Labor Signs: Had an internal today - we're at 2 cm dilated, 50% effaced and Emilia is at-2 station. I may have just lost a little bit of my mucus plug post internal.
Belly Button in or out? In
What I miss: I'm echoing last week's sentiment-->comfortable sleep
What I am looking forward to: Emilia's birth and non pregnant sleep
Milestones: FULL TERM!
Today I saw the OB that delivered Gabriella. Love that man, he is seriously so nice. I find it slightly funny that out of a 6 person practice, the 3 women of the practice have the WORST bedside manner I have ever seen. They are so awkward and cold - here's hoping I don't catch one of them on call when I go into labor. So, as you can see from above, I am making progress. I could still walk around like this till 40 weeks, but I'll personally take it as good news that we're moving in the right direction (at 37 weeks no less) and that I have 2 less cm that I have to labor for, lol.
The past 2 days I have been crampy accompanied with some lower back pain. Some days I noticed a lot more BH, others not so much, but as a whole they are getting more frequent. I also have some very sporadic real contractions, but again, nothing even really to think twice about just yet. I'm just overall starting to feel really poopy and I know that if I make it far past 38 weeks I'm going to be so cranky given how early Gabriella came (37w5d).
On a good note, my BP has behaved this entire pregnancy. No NST debacles like last time. I'm SO super thankful for that.
