How far along? 36 weeks
Total weight gain/loss: 31 pounds (current weight 167)
Maternity clothes? Yes
Stretch marks? No
Sleep: I have been admitted to Loma Linda on bed rest. This has made sleep a thing of the past.
Best moment this week: This week has been a bit crazy but by far the best thing has been my baby shower!!!! It was absolutely beautiful. My mom and sisters made it everything I dreamed of and more. It was simply perfect in every way Neutral colors, a cheers with cookies and milk, white birch theme and everything beautiful little detail in between from handmade gifts to chalk board soup bread bowls. It was so nice to see all the friends and family that are excited to meet this sweet little girl!
Worst moment this week: Well, I was put on bed rest at LLU. This was very stressful for me to make the decision to come into the hospital. I really wanted to 'nest', which for me is something that I probably do each weekend anyways but I really wanted to clean and prepare for baby girl, bringing her into our home the best way I could. But the Lord is teaching me to let go of things I can't control and just trust. I had been told on Friday that I developed mild preeclampsia and with my breathing issues being of major concern to the doctors they felt it best that I be in the hospital to be monitored. So as of now, your Dad and I have been camping out at the hospital. Awaiting to see if you will be here sooner than expected which in this case looks like c-section at 37 weeks, which also gives me a lot of stress. As long as you are here healthy, we will be blessed and thankful.
Miss Anything: home, our pups, our bed, and popsicles I just bought that are in the freezer=)
Movement: my little mover makes me happy!
Food cravings: just real food, not hospital food.
Anything making you queasy or sick: hospital food.
Have you started to show yet: of course

Labor Signs: Having a few contractions
Belly Button in or out? not fully out
Wedding rings on or off? off, only because we are not at home.
Happy or Moody most of the time: Lately just tired and stressed but still looking for the positive and praying everything will work out just fine.
Weekly Wisdom: Listen carefully and trust completely to God's plan. Docs can be tough and although they have different approaches and ideas to problems; my husband and I will trust our hearts and follow God's guidance (even when the docs don't agree or like us =)
Looking forward to: Hearing you cry and holding you in our arms!
