36 Week Survey

How Far Along: 36 weeks, 0 days
Baby's Size: About 18 inches long and 5.5 lbs, according to "the norm"
Weight gain/loss: Still holding steady at 13 lbs
Best Moment This Week: Hm...I had a good week. My glider came in, I had two different get-togethers with friends, and made some Scentsy sales!
Symptoms: Shortness of breath, and SWELLING. Holy moly. It is truly remarkable how once I got close to 9 months, it's like someone flipped a switch. I had had no other swelling, and then Friday--BAM. My ankles became unrecognizable orbs of flesh. Same thing yesterday.
Labor Signs: Braxton Hicks...that's about it. I don't expect it'll be anytime soon.
Food Cravings/ Aversions: Do I need to keep answering this? Nothing's changed. I'm pretty much grossed out by everything except fruit and vegetables.
What I'm Looking Forward To: Going to the doctor on Tuesday starts my weekly visits, and my first "progress" exam. I'm looking forward to what he has to say.
Milestones: Bags are packed, epidural informational papers are signed, and I'm 9 months pregnant. Installing the carseat is on Mr. ABC123's to-do list for today.

The baby is coming soon!
