I have scrubbed the bathroom, toilet, kitchen from top to bottom. Nesting has definately kicked in.... It's like my eyes can see things that I was blind to before. I wiped down all the skirting boards and even wiped down the light switches! I am trying to keep the house clean and tidy just in case baby girl decides to come early. As of Christmas Eve we are full term and is in the 5 week window that most births happen in!! Oh dear!!!! I am still working full time at the bakery which is keeping me busy and distracted from the daily countdown. It is also helping with the fluid retention (I think).... I don't really swell too much luckily!
Miss Anything? Nothing!
Movement: She is definately a mover and a kicker! It is an indescribable feeling that still makes my heart beat a little faster when she pokes her little feet or knees out- it makes me so happy to know I have carried her for nearly 9 months and she is a healthy, kicking bub.
Food cravings: green grapes!!
Anything making you queasy or sick: Nothing this week
Have you started to show yet: Ooohhhh yes!
Gender prediction: no longer a prediction.... Sweet baby GIRL!!!!
Labor Signs: Plenty of Braxton hicks (sometimes up to 4 an hour) and lots of pressure in my lower belly and crotch from her head pushing town.
Belly Button in or out? Out!! !
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy!
Looking forward to: meeting our baby girl!
Well that is all for this week!
Love from us (all 3 of us) xxoo
I feel HUGE but over and over I get comments about how small my bump is... I am just lucky I think!
What is the baby up to this week? I think from her on out she is basically just a small, medium and large watermelon.. So HUGE!!! She weighs about 2.7 kg and is pretty much at her birth length (around 50cm). She is shedding her downy hair that was covering her body and is losing the waxy layer of vernix that protects her skin. If she were to be born now she would not need help breathing and would have no major health issues. We had a midwife appointment this week and the midwife wasn't sure whether she had flipped around to be breech so we had to get another midwife to feel my belly- and she couldn't tell either! So we had to call a doctor in with an ultrasound machine to check.... She was a good girl and was head down! Turns out her butt feels a bit like a head ha ha!
Maternity clothes? No new ones. Just wearing my pre pregnancy singlets that are long enough to cover my belly.
Stretch marks? Nope!
Sleep: getting harder and super uncomfortable but nothing worthy of complaining about... I love pregnancy and although I am VERY VERY excited for Baby T to arrive I know I am counting down the days that I am no longer and pregnant woman !
Best moment this week: Packing the hospital bags... They are all packed and ready to go!!!!
