Stretch Marks: Nope and Hope to Avoid

Gender Predictions: boy

Movement: Yes and I feel like you are dropping a little bit maybe

I can feel movement much lower than ever before, however, your little feet are still up in my right ribs when you move  

Maybe you are just growing and not dropping or stretched out now

Made some delicious banana bars

I don’t think I have gained but maybe another lb or so

Pretty sure my scale is wrong ---it always different then wha the dr says (less which im okay with hahaha) so probably about +27/28/29 lbs

Emotions:  Im doing really good emotions I feel like have been in check for the majority of this pregnancy (with a few loose hairs here and there)

Daddy has been taking really good care of me this week

And helping out a lot more around house, cooking, etc since I have been sick

SO GLAD you didn’t decide to come in the middle of me being under the weather (I feared that)

Belly Button: outey most days or flesh with the skin –no more inny

Best Moment this week:  Bailey booked her ticket to come down after Urijah is born!! I am so beyond excited, she will be his second family member to hold him after Grandma Robin

I got my hair colored and picked up a few more things for the hospital

Worked more on the baby book got some pictures put in it

WORST moment this week: being sick

Head, throat, chest, cough, stomach, the works

Daddy had it last week and decided to be kind and share

What I’m looking forward to: Holding my baby boy

What I’m NOT looking forward to: being in the middle of a store or church and my water breaking! Just so anxious to know when he is going to decide to come

Milestone: internal organs and systems are now fully developed and baby is ready to enter the world. Becoming more cramped inside

Labor signs: 2 more weeks IS THAT A 2!!!!!
