Oh Wait...38 Weeks!

38 Weeks! 

How Far Along: 38 Weeks... its the FINAL COUNTDOWN! 

Size of Baby: Baby Oz is the size of a LEEK this week (6.8lbs and over 19in. long)! I can hardly believe how big Max is...it is amazing how much he has grown in such a short period of time! 

Maternity Clothes: No turning back now...it is all about comfort as soon as i am home from work! A lot of sweatpants and hoodies, as the weather is getting cooler! I also just bought some really cute PJ's for the hospital in a larger and my normal size! (i can not wait to be my old size again!)

Gender: hopefully we will be hearing next week....ITS A BOY!!!

Movement: Max is still moving but actually a little less that normal, this is due to there being less room for him in my tummy! No more room = time to come out and meet us!

Sleep: I am not sleeping this week! I have been feeling crampy and sick all week... it is the hardest thing ever to go to work every day right now! I am running on fumes at this point and can't wait to at least feel better and hold my baby while not sleeping!

What I Miss: I miss the feel good weeks of pregnancy...even though it sucks feeling like this! i think i will slightly miss having him in my tummy and feeling those little kicks (knowing he is ok)! 

Cravings: water!!! I have been extremely thirsty this week.

Symptoms: I have been feeling horrible this week so i have spent some time in bed and at the doctor/hospital for tests and monitoring. The doctor was concerned with the amount of fluid around the baby so i had an ultrasound to confirm the size and due date, and will be induced next week!!! The doctor says that everything looks good and we should have no problems next week! 

Best Moment This Week: This week i have felt horrible and have spend lots of time hooked up to monitors and getting poked with needles! Max is doing well though and we will get to meet him next week, so this was my final doctors appointment this week. My family came over and helped up get everything ready for the big day. We cleaned, did laundry, washed bottles, and packed the car! We are finally ready for BABY. ---We can't wait to meet you Maxie Moo! We love you so much already, i can't imagine what it will be like once you are here--- mommy & daddy =)
