How far along? 40 weeks, 6 days!
Total weight gain: I think I gained close to 35 lbs during my entire pregnancy. I am now down 20 of those lbs since I had her.
Maternity clothes: Dresses or my maternity yoga clothes. As soon as I get home, I change immediately into my nightgown, which is one of the only things I am comfortable in anymore.
Stretch marks: I'm still using the Nivea Q10 Plus Skin Firming Lotion on my legs and arms. I'm still using my It Works Stretch Mark Cream {even post-pregnancy}.
Workouts: I was still attending Prenatal Yoga until the end of my pregnancy and also going for walks.
Sleep: I did not get much sleep at the end of my pregnancy. In fact, I'm actually getting better sleep now that Lennon is here, than I was before. I used my Boppy Pregnancy Wedge until the bitter end.
Best moment this week: Finishing up the school year and being able to work all the way to the end!
Miss anything? I now actually miss all of her kicks inside my belly. However, I much prefer her here
Movement: I was feeling her kicks and elbow movements even while in labor. This is the one thing I now miss.
Food cravings: I really haven't had any crazy cravings, still drinking chocolate almond milk.
Anything making you queasy or sick? Not a thing! Thank goodness!
Gender: Girl!
Labor signs: I went to the doctor the friday after her due date and was sent to the hospital {again} for mildly high blood pressure. They hooked me up to monitors and did blood tests, but concluded that my blood pressure was indeed NOT high and sent me on my way. I was having contractions while I was there, but they were about 25 minutes apart and not strong by any means.
Belly button in or out? It is STILL an inny. It never did pop out.
Wedding rings on or off? Still only wearing my wedding band.
Happy or moody most of the time: My mood was happy at the end.
Baby Arrival Guesstimate: No more guesses, Baby Girl's birthday is May 30. She stayed put even longer than I thought she would.
Looking forward to: Seeing our little miracle thrive and grow.
