Week 36

Week 36 is coming to an end!

How far along?
36 weeks and 5 days pregnant today!

How big is the baby? (info for weeks 33-36) 
Baby is now the size of a Honeydew (Melon) 
Weight approx: 4.2 - 5.8lbs
Length (Crown to Heel): 43-47cm

Maternity Clothes?
I have been wearing my maternity jeans again this week for various going out occasions, but am definitely more comfortable in my tracksuit bottoms.

Sleep?
Sleep has been on and off again this week. Some good nights some bad nights. But now I wake up on average every 3 hours to go to the toilet... boooooo. (Have used a whole roll of toilet roll in 24 hours! Madness!)

Best moment this week?

Well this was a fairly busy week. Managed to get out and have a few meals out to say my goodbyes I guess! We went out for a meal with some ex-colleagues of my husband, which was really nice! I also met up with my antenatal friend for lunch which was lovely!!! I went out for dinner with my bosses to see them one last time before I disappear into a world of nappies etc...

My Nana came back from Florida today and bought baby the cutest dungarees! Osh Kosh B'gosh! The same that I have worn when I was a baby! I can't wait to put them on the mini person (in about 6 months time!)


Symptoms?
My worst symptom this week was reduced movement this weekend from the baby. I had noticed that baby was being quiet... for full story see blog post here!

Heartburn still raising its ugly head - Cooled by Gaviscon!

Pelvic pain still there but I am trying to get on with it. Really bored of not being about to do anything so I am just trying to move a little bit more. I do pay for this at night time, but I am also trying not to take any pain killers.

Food Cravings/Aversions?
Too many meals out this week. Don't even go there!

Gender?
Ever since the hospital yesterday I have felt that this might just be a girl!

Belly button in or out?
Still in!

What I miss?
Being able to bend!

What I'm looking forward to?
I am looking forward to reaching full term! (37 weeks!) 2 days to go! Woop!

Milestones? 
Hospital bag done!
Birth Plan... To be discussed.... Midwife appointment tomorrow (will be 36+6) also have to see a consultant re: My weight... appointment on May 15th.

Milestone to head for: 37 weeks... Full Term!

Bump?
Bump is doing okay at the moment. Not too big not too small. Definitely gets bigger as the day goes on! Painful at times and definitely pulls on the back! A lot!
