36 Weeks! Full Term!

This post is a bit delayed as tomorrow I will be 37 weeks.  I just didn't really have any time to upload the picture or do any blogging with my crazy work schedule this week.  Luckily I am back in the office today and can catch my breath!

How Far Along?: 36 weeks 4 days
Total weight gain/loss: +25.4lbs
Maternity clothes:  The weather has finally warmed up so now I am able to expand my wardrobe into maxi skirts and dresses which helps a lot.
Stretch Marks: I thought I saw some last weekend but I think it was just an indentation from the waistband of my pants.  I almost had a meltdown.
Sleep:  The past two nights have actually been wonderful.  I am not the most comfortable when I first lay down but I think the change in the weather has helped with the dry air or something.  I am also so exhausted by the time that I finally lay down that nothing keeps me awake for too long.
Best Moment This Week: I had a doctor's appointment on Wednesday and he estimated that Taylor is about 7 lbs and he would guess that she will make her big appearance BEFORE her due date!  Yay!
Have you told Family and Friends: Yes, I love talking about her :)
Miss Anything:  The 5 pairs of jeans hanging in my closet :(
Movement:  Yep. She slides her foot back and forth across my stomach all the time.  I love it.
Food Cravings: Not really.  Indigestion and swelling have pretty much ruined my appetite.
Anything making you queasy or sick:  Sometimes I feel nauseated on the way to work but nothing other than that.
Have you started to show yet: Yep
Labor Signs:  I wouldn't classify them as Labor Signs, but according to my doctor she has dropped and I'm showing definite signs of progression.  I won't go into too much detail but things are looking good!
Belly Button: Flat
Wedding Rings on or off: On but my hands are starting to swell a little.  Probably more due to the heat than anything else.
Happy or Moody: Happy and very excited to be in the final weeks!
Looking forward to: My next appointment on Monday to see if we've progressed any further!
