How Far Along: 39 Weeks
Size of Baby: a mini watermelon. 7+ lbs, 20 inches
Total Weight Gained/Lost: +27lbs
Maternity Clothes: What still fits
Movement: Still constant. Baby is more active now than ever!
Sleep: Terrible. I'm up every hour or two to use the bathroom or roll over. Also, Rory is in the process of sleeping in his underwear. So, some nights he calls in the middle of the night to either go to the bathroom or for me to change his soaking sheets! Its been rough!
What I miss: Sleeping throughout the night without any interuption.
Cravings: Chocolate again! Ugh!
Symptoms: Lots of strong braxton hicks. Some stinging down there with pressure.
Highlights from this week: Today has been a great week, so I have two big highlights.

Highlights from this week: Today has been a great week, so I have two big highlights.
1. I lost my mucous plug! It started last night and has been coming out steadily today @ 39 weeks. It has been blood tinged, thick, and slimey. TMI, huh? Hopefully this means labor is soon to arrive!
2. I have finished up with clincal until March 22 or so. Yippee!! I have doubled up clinical time the past couple of weeks and it has been so hard to study, spend time with family, and find time to rest. But its here! I did it. I will have 4-5 weeks to spend with just the baby (and to study of course). No 12 hr. shifts for a whole month!What a relief!
