36 weeks!

    Hello 36 weeks and weekly doctor appointments! 

Had a doctor's appointment on Monday~ was originally planned for Wednesday because of all the pressure I was having; turns out (false hope) its just G getting in the proper position. I am a "finger tip" dilated which really means.. ah.. yeah, nothing and 50% effaced- well thank you Dr. K, thanks <-- the doctor I'm not too fond of, oh well. Everything else looks good :) just gotta be patient!
    Over all it was a good week- sleeping is getting harder only being able to sleep 2-3 hours on each side and if I even try on my back I end up waking up wanting to vomit- back sleeping=nausea <-- nooooo thank you! It's Sunday night and I am exhausted, so this is a short post, but at least I got a belly photo where I look some what put together :)

THIRTY-SIX WEEKS!
Baby is the size of a(n): HONEYDEW MELON!



Your due date is just four weeks away. Hasn’t time flown? Your once-poppy seed would probably be able to breathe on his own if he was born right now. (If not, he’d probably need some TLC, but he’d likely be okay.) Most of his systems are in working order at 36 weeks. Since baby really could decide to make his arrival any day now, try to put in a little prep work. For example, if you took a child birth class a few months ago, you might want to reread any materials you were given and practice some of the breathing techniques you learned with your partner. Go over your plan for getting to the hospital, and all the what-ifs (like, if you go into labor while you’re at work, will you go home first or straight there?). You might also want to remind your boss and colleagues of the status of all your work projects, so they know exactly where to take over if you’re suddenly out of the office. Week 36 is also a good time to enjoy a date with your partner. We’re guessing you won’t be up for dancing, but a nice dinner might be just what you two could use.

Happy Sunday!
