36 Weeks (and 1 day)

How far along? 36 Weeks (and 1 day when i posted)
Total weight gain/loss: total is 16 lbs-- when i was admitted last friday i was down 2 lbs from a week and a half earlier. then when i went in this tuesday i was down another 2 lbs. I think it may be because since i spent the day in the hospital i have been drinking a ton more water and not so much soda so i think that is why i lost weight. Dr wasn't too concerned since baby is measuring good. if it continues i think she will look into it further.
Maternity clothes? yes
Sleep: some... had a really bad week last week, but this week has been way better
Best moment this week: still being preggo!!!!
Movement: movements are bigger and bigger since he is growing, more whole belly moves instead of kicks
Food cravings: none right now
Gender: BOY!!!!
Labor Signs: not this week. last week we had our scare, but no huge contractions since. My guess is next week after my body doesn't get the medicine something might happen
Belly Button in or out? getting shallower, but still considered in
What I miss: i kind of hate this question because i don't want to sound like i hate pregnancy, but what i miss is easily putting shoes on, or not panting just from getting off the floor.
What I am looking forward to: meeting out little man :)
Weekly Wisdom: when in doubt wake your sleeping husband to take you to the hospital
Milestones: 36 weeks!!!! every week day over 34 weeks is such a blessing.

So my dr appointment this week went well, like I said I have lost 4 lbs in 2 weeks, but i am thinking it could be from dropping soda and coffee out of my routine in the morning and drinking loads more water. Dr was still happy with the growth (just measuring my belly) so she said we will just watch it and see what happens. I have another appointment on Tuesday anyway. Other news also I am DONE with my 17p shot!!! We were originally going to do one more on the 14th, but I ran out of medicine (the pharmacy told me I was going to be able to make it, but "due to personal technique" it isn't that accurate... whatever! anyway I talked about it with my Dr and she said that it was fine (since I hit 36 weeks yesterday) and she was happy with that. So now "statistics" from the shot say 7-10 days after your last shot is when labor (if you were going to go into preterm labor) starts. So that would mean middle to end of next week already! Grant had a dream that he is going to come the end of next week so we will see! I would be perfectly ok with that since it would put me at almost 37 weeks. My dr thinks we are out of the gray area of the NICU, but no promises have been made. So we are super excited and praying away in hopes that as soon a Carson arrives he can also come home with us :)
