36 Weeks

Pregnancy This Week

How Far Along: 36 weeks

Size of Baby: Average baby is about 6lbs and 18" long. We were able to have another ultrasound this week and Wilson is measuring over 6 1/2lbs and has some wonderful chubby cheeks!

Gender: Boy...Wilson Tyler! The doctor doing the ultrasound even double checked to make sure, and yep, still a boy! :)

Maternity Clothes: Still a mix of everything.

Movement: The guy feels so smushed in there. He is pretty low and curled up tight so his movements are not outrageous. But he is big so I feel every little movement pretty clearly. His latest game seems to be "How many kicks will it take to knock a big brother off Mom's lap".

Cravings: My appetite is still pretty much gone. I don't really want a lot of food nor can I eat a lot. I just feel full all the time. 

Symptoms: Still having the infrequent contractions, starting the sleepless nights of not finding any comfortable position, and the overall feeling of "doneness". But I'm still working out/jogging which really helps keep energy levels up and everything toned.

Best Moment of the Week: I really loved being able to see Wilson on another ultrasound this week. I loved seeing his chubby little fingers and perfectly round cheeks. I cannot wait to see and hold him!
