Baby Developments: Aiden is going to be packing on the pounds from here on out! He is 17.2-18.7 inches long and weighs 4.2-5.8 lbs. He's getting healthier and stronger this week!
Weight gain: 36 pounds
Maternity clothes: Bring on the PJ's, big T's and yoga pants: ) I'm growing out of my maternity clothes. My church dresses still fit but as far as everyday going out I'm very limited. Nothing constricting is comfortable anymore. I refuse to buy any other clothes! I rarely leave the house because I am constantly cleaning, walking or sleeping.
Stretch marks: Still no signs of them! I wonder if I'm in the clear?
Sleep: I've been waking up about every hour to go to the bathroom. I have had a few hours when I just couldn't fall back asleep. I stopped fighting it and just turned on the tv. I've been taking naps here and there in the afternoons.
Best moment this week: Spending time with Forrest. He has been so incredibly sweet this week. I've been soaking up our nighttime snuggles!
Miss Anything: Bending over and being in the same position for longer than 30 minutes
Movement: Baby AJ likes to lay with his butt and back pressed up against the outside of my belly. I can usually feel the curve of his butt and spine.
Food cravings: I'm back to my normal pre-pregnancy appetite. No cravings!
Anything making you queasy or sick: Fish, Garlic flavored crackers
Labor Signs: We went to L&D Wednesday night because my contractions were 3-4 minutes apart and lasted for 3 hours! We were sent home because I was only dilated 1 cm and my contractions weren't strong enough.
Exercise: I've been taking it easy since my trip to L&D. We really want to give Aiden a little more time to cook.
