Okay, so I am almost 37 weeks pregnant now but I thought I should get this up instead of putting them both up together.
I haven't noticed a big change in size, 36 weeks feels just as big as 35 weeks but I have noticed more back pain, abdominal cramping and holy cow! the swelling in my hands has gotten horrible.
As you can see the stretch marks are coming in better now. They just keep creeping up closer to my belly button now. It seems there is just no stopping them now. Oh, well! Hopefully they will go away soon after I have her!
At 36 weeks she is supposed to be about 20 inches long and almost 6 pounds. The movements I have been feeling are definitely more predominate. They are rolling waves and strong punches. I have noticed a feeling like she is using my bladder like a trampoline as well. After our visit to the doctor for the 36 week check I found out why. She is! She is in the breech position so her little booty and her legs are bouncing off my bladder. We opted against going into the hospital and having the flipping procedure done. We are just going to wait her out and hope she goes on her own. But, if she doesn't flip it looks like a planned C-section at 39 weeks. We will see what she decides to do. Other than that she is perfectly healthy and we are waiting to see the results of the Group B Strep Culture at our 37 week visit this coming Wednesday.
