How far along: 36 w, 1 d.
Total weight gain/loss: FORTY POUNDS. That's right. 4-0. Sweet Jebus.
Maternity clothes: Yep. I wore maternity tights for the first time yesterday to a wedding. Weird.
Stretch marks: Still just the thigh. But I can barely see it (first, it's really faint. and second, it's very difficult to see my inner thighs now)
Best moment this week: The surprise "this is not a shower" that my work threw for me on Friday. I had no idea! And if I wasn't worried through the whole thing about missing my doctor's appointment that I was almost late for, I'd have loved it. Even though I hate showers ;)
Movement: Yup. In the wrong spot - down near the va-jay-jay. Silly sideways baby.
Cravings: Nothing in particular.
Aversions: None
Gender: Don't know.
Labour Signs: Nothing, really. And good thing too. Since the baby's transverse, there better not be any labour signs until s/he gets his/her little head down! I do NOT want to have an emergency c-section!
Belly Button in or out: In
What I miss: So very many things. I'm at the same time ready to not be pregnant, but not ready to have the baby. I'd like to be in limbo somewhere for the next couple of weeks.
What I'm looking forward to: Freezer delivery next weekend. Finishing my last week at work.
Weekly Wisdom: If the doctor's not telling you what you want to know (i.e. what position the baby's in), ask. If I hadn't asked, she wouldn't have checked and I wouldn't have known the baby is transverse.
Symptoms this week: I now wake up with the sore and achy crotch, and it lasts all day. It blows. Also, my hips hurt through the night now so I wake up when I roll over. But I don't have to get up to pee, so I'm sort of thankful for that (sort of thankful, b/c t he reason I don't wake up is because the baby isn't in the right position, and is therefore not on my bladder)
Milestones: We did the last of our travelling yesterday - we went to the wedding in Collingwood and that's it - no more going out of Toronto!
On the To-Do List:
- Get on a daycare waiting list.
- Put some decoration on the baby room walls.
- Figure out when/if we can do this super important Indian blessing thing that you're supposed to do at the baby shower I didn't have (stress stress stress...).
- Buy a freezer and start making some meals
- Find a new family doctor.
- PICK OUT BABY NAMES
