Baby Shower Fun

Gray and I are blessed to have so many sweet family and friends who have been incredibly supportive throughout our pregnancy. We have had a lot of wonderful baby showers and now just are waiting to meet our baby girl! Thank you to everyone who has done so much for us. We really appreciate it!

37 Weeks

 
 
I love the fact that I am considered full term!  Gray and I are both very ready to meet our sweet baby! This past week of pregnancy has been rough. My sciatic nerve decided it wants to act up to the point of hardly being able to walk. I wasn't able to do much at all this weekend! My husband was sweet enough to take me to get a massage because the doctor suggested that that might help. I am definitely not back to 100%, but it did help a little bit. Unfortunately I may be dealing with this until she makes her arrival. I do know the end result will be worth this pain! :)
 
 
How big is the baby? About 6.5 pounds

Weight Gain: YES and definite swelling! The joys of pregnancy!

Gender: GIRL!!!!

Maternity Clothes? Most definitely!

Sleep?  Not the best because of having to get up every 2 hours to use the bathroom and this lovely sciatic nerve pain.

Food Cravings: Eating A LOT these days and always hungry! I have been eating a lot of special k, bananas, blueberries, pop tarts and ice cream. (Yes I know not exactly the healthiest!)

Movement: Lots of movement! It actually hurts sometimes when I'm not expecting it!

What I miss? Being comfortable. I am at the point where every position I sit or lay in I am not comfortable. My feet are quite swollen so it is hard to stand for a long period of time because they end up being on fire!

What I am looking forward to? I am so ready to meet our baby girl!
