It’s crazy how big she (and I!!) have gotten since 36 weeks. Wanna see a side-by-side comparison?

And here’s a look at 14 weeks vs 37 weeks. Gosh I was SOOO skinny!

Ok enough of that …. On to my weekly stats!

 

How far along: 37 weeks

Gender: Girl

Weight gain: 35 lbs. woah mama!

Maternity clothes: the same as last week, still struggling to find things that fit!  

Stretch marks: No

Belly button in or out: Out

Sleep: Sleep is good, but my ribs are still very sore and bruised so it takes a bit to find that one comfy spot! The good news is that she finally dropped, so I can breathe again — yay!! This makes sleeping on back an option again

Best moment this week: Easter was a really great day, and hosting it in our home was a success! I was definitely bummed that little miss wasn’t here for it!

Miss anything: Beer. Clothes that fit.

Movement: Still moving quite a bit, but it’s less rolling and more jabs and punches. I think she’s almost out of room!

Cravings: My cravings are pretty much gone! Although I could still live off sweets!

Looking forward to: My last day at work, and meeting our little girl!

 

My first Easter meal was a success! I think I made enough food to feed 20 people, so we had tons and tons of leftovers, so I know what we’ll be eating this week haha

Hard to believe this was really our last holiday just us …. I cannot wait to have holidays with a little one. Kids just make things infinitely more fun!

 

 

One last thing, today is Patriots Day and Marathon Monday here in Boston. It’s hard to believe it’s been one year since those horrible events rocked our city. If anything, we are stronger and more resilient than ever before. 36,000 people are running the race this year, 9,000 more than last year! We have several friends who are running, and I am truly so proud of them. Today we stand together as a city united, running for those who can’t and in memory of those we lost. Today, and every day, we are #bostonstrong
