36 weeks



How far along? 36 weeks
Current weight/ Total Weight: 155-156lbs in the morning, 157lbs at the drs.
Exercise: We have all been sick this week so I took Monday & Tuesday off. Did JM RI30 wk1 wed.
Stretch marks? Im sure
Sleep: Actually have been sleeping better the last 2 or so nights. Rolled up a small blanket to support my back with my body pillow in-between my legs.
Movement: He loves to kick my right hip which really hurts. 
Best moment this week: Had my 35wkish Dr 
appointment on the 21st. I weighed 157lbs so 1 lb less than I did at the last appointment on 9/1 & I was even wearing jeans this time. We also had an ultrasound. Baby is healthy, heartbeat was 145, measuring about 6lbs and right on track for being about 8lbs give or take. I would guess closer to 8lbs than 7. He is head down with his feet on my right side which I already knew cause he kicks my ribs & hip a lot. The tech said he has lots of hair & plenty of time for it to continue to grow. Baby was measuring 1 week a head like he was at my 20 week ultrasound but that didn't change my due date. Fluids looked great. Had my GBS test done and my cervix checked. I am dilated 1cm but it is nice and thick still, Dr. Harward says thats pretty good for week 35. I go in weekly probably every Monday until Baby is here. We talked about induction which Harward had to check with the hospital to see what was open, he will let me know Monday, 9/28. I would assume around the 16th because he said on Thursdays he is at the provo hospital. He would prefer me to deliver at the Orem hospital because his office is right there. I asked if they had birthing balls at the hospital to thats good to know & I won't have to bring mine. He also recommended us not traveling too far just in cause my water broke or I went into labor, we would have to go to the nearest hospital and thats not exactly ideal. 
Miss anything: Just in that phase where I am done cause I am uncomfortable a lot.
Food cravings or things you can eat: Lots of fruit, strawberries, grapes, apples, dates, yogurt, granola bars.
Anything making you queasy or sick: We have had a stomach bug or something so its been like having morning sickness all over again where lots of food stinks. Tater Tot  casserole is a no go.
Symptoms: Slight ligament pain isn't very common any more, sore hips when sleeping, pelvic pressure, rib pain, sore lower back, lots of BH, some contractions though, sore butt/lower back which helps if I stretch it before bed.
Bloating: No
Gender: Boy
Names: Kasen Merrill 
Belly button in/out: Its been out for a long time.
Wedding Ring on/off: On.

Happy or Moody most of the time: Grumpy a lot!
Looking forward to: Monday I start seeing the Dr weekly.
Cute chubby cheeks.
