Baby 2 at 36 weeks // oh mama, oh daddy


How far along? 36 weeks  (9 months)
Total weight gain/loss: 160 pounds (+32 total gain so far)
Maternity clothes? yes and no, the heat is on in So Cal now, so I'd rather be in light comfy pants and a sports bra or swim suit, or heck just nudie butt ;) 

Stretch marks? Nope
Sleep: Pretty good, back and leg cramps are a bit painful though.  
Best moment this week: Having this boy still in my belly........ surgery went well and he is a fighter! So very thankful for God's direction, family support through prayers and so much more, and doctors who presented us with facts, confidence and reassurance. Oh and I can breathe and have energy to finish up what I need to before baby boy's arrival.  We celebrated Dada-Papa's birthday and Amy is back for a bit from Australia. 
Worst moment this week: Just being at the doctors office all the time it feels like. LLU is crazy good, but crazy busy and I am now there two- three times a week since I am still considered high risk. 
Food cravings: anything cold! Watermelon!!! We can down a whole one pretty quick! 
Anything making you queasy or sick: Nope, unless I get too full
Have you started to show yet: oh mama, oh daddy, I am a big ol' fatty ;) 
Belly Button in or out? POP. it's out
Wedding rings on or off? On
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy and blown away by how quick it's all gone by. Trying to take in this last little bit with my baby in my belly.  Makes me think of the song...."It won't be like this for long". Doctors would like this to be my last pregnancy due to what it does to my body/breathing however time will tell. 

Weekly Wisdom: We are SOOOO BLESSED and our children are such a gift from God. 
Looking forward to: Meeting our boy! 
Miss Anything? Bending over to pick up things normally. My legs and booty being a normal size. 
Movement: yes, Love to feel him move! 
Labor Signs: Not yet, but hoping I will! I need to go into labor on my own to have a chance at a vBAC. Baby boy is head down though! I also need to not get preeclampsia. I'm excited to see what God has planned for us, a successful vBAC would be such a blessing! 
Nicknames so far: Brother Seth
