Pregnancy Highlights

How far along: 38 weeks!

Size of baby: Apparently (as I mentioned in my last Prego Highlights) watermelon really IS the largest fruit to compare baby to.  Baby #2 is weighing in at almost 7 lbs. (according to baby center).  I can’t imagine this baby getting any bigger!

Dilation: Still at 1cm.  I was worried I would be dilated more, and would have to stay home for our quick PSU trip—but my OB gave me the go-ahead and said she thinks I will be hanging onto this baby for awhile (boo!).

Movement/contractions: TONS of movement.  TONS.  No contractions this week.

Things I miss: Sleeping on my stomach….I actually had a dream I was sleeping on my stomach and I was so happy!  And then I woke up.

Cravings/aversions: No major cravings, but I had the most amazing bowl of coconut chip ice cream from The Creamery at Penn State.  It was amazing.  Seriously, amazing!

Highlight of the week: Going to my Alma mater and taking Charlotte around campus!  It was so much fun.  Exhausting, YES—but still a lot of fun and I’m glad I took the risk of traveling to go.

We are SO.CLOSE.  And I feel like I am going to go to my due date…and I really just want to snuggle my new baby and find out if it is a boy or a girl!!! :)
