Baby’s size: Coconut, squash, jicama (??), 16.5" and 3.75 pounds
Total weight gain / loss: +38.8 (but I weighed at a different time of day than I normally do, so not sure how consistent that is)
Gender: I'll tell you TOMORROW! :):) Student votes are in, what do you think?
Maternity clothes: Don't know how this belly will still get 2 months worth of bigger!
Stretch marks: Not yet.
Sleep: Pretty good, I'll occasionally wake up in the night to pee or find a more comfortable position.
Loving: I had my students guess the gender, name, and give baby advice as a warm up this week. They were beyond adorable!
Loathing: Comments on how big I am... (Yes, really... Particularly strangers telling me that's how they "know" the gender of the baby, because I'm so big everywhere and not just in the belly).
Missing: I want a cold beer or a fruity summer drink!
Movement: Still loving those big baby moves!
Cravings: Give me milk.
Aversions: Spring mix lettuce.
Labor signs: Nope
Symptoms: Most are the same as previous weeks, but the bottoms of my heels have become numb.. Anyone else ever experience this? My mom thinks it might be related to the swelling.
Exercise: Yoga once this week - I've been busy getting ready for the shower this weekend and out of town guests, so I've dropped the ball on excercise quite a bit. But cleaning is a pretty good workout when you're 8 months pregnant! :)
Belly button: It's like the watched pot that never boils- still so close to popping but not quite yet!
Wedding rings: I put my engagement ring back on because swelling in my fingers hasn't been so bad.
Mood: Excited - baby shower and gender reveal this weekend!
Husband: Has also been crazy busy finishing stuff up around the house so we're ready for this weekend - our basement renovations are finally complete (the main area anyway), and I'm in love with how it turned out!
Can't wait for: Do you even have to ask?? TOMORROW!
