{37 Weeks!}

Well, I've decided I will not wait for my doctors appointment as last week I nearly forgot to post week 36. My goal was to make sure and have it done before a certain aunt reminded me I'd forgotten; luckly, she was on vacation and I posted it before she got back :)!

37 Weeks! According to http://www.babycenter.com/ my baby is fully developed and can enter the world. I've always heard 2 weeks early or 2 weeks late (making me think 38 weeks) but apparently it's 37 and, well, I'll take it! I've had a slow week. I wrote a to-do list and am almost complete. I need to pack my bag for the hospital and organize my closet and then I'm done and can sit and wait....I just hope it's not like a TV show waiting were you see the clock ticking and the person waiting and waiting and waiting...I'd rather NOT do that!

I've experienced a lot of braxton hicks contractions and am not thrilled for what will be coming! I've also had horrible heartburn. It comes and goes and seems to come always at night. For the past 3 days I've slept on the couch in a sitting up position to feel a little relief!

Cravings: This weekI ate at Taco Time 4 times for lunch! I've always gotten a chicken soft taco meal, but NEVER eat it all and wouldn't you know it that they have a kids meal version! I have to say the kids meal version is BETTER, it comes with fried tortillas dipped in sugar and cinnamon too, with a much smaller taco and mexi-fries, I've been in heaven!

Aversions: Nothing that I can think of.

T.M.C: Congratulations — your baby is full term! This means that if your baby arrives now, his lungs should be fully mature and ready to adjust to life outside the womb, even though your due date is still three weeks away.Your baby weighs a little over 6 pounds and measures between 19 and 20 inches, head to heel. Many babies have a full head of hair at birth, with locks from 1/2 inch to 1 1/2 inches long. But don't be surprised if your baby's hair isn't the same color as yours. Dark-haired couples are sometimes thrown for a loop when their children come out as blonds or redheads, and fair-haired couples have been surprised by Elvis look-alikes. And then, of course, some babies sport only peach fuzz.

Your Aunt was home from vacation and did notice.... Looks like you are slipping a bit. Your place is looking nice. I don't think I jinxed you with the girly stuff. You get what you get and you are going to love it no matter what.
