As for our nursery, I've pretty much gotten everything finished. There are just a few last minute touches, including hanging some wall art and putting pictures in frames, that need to be done, but I hope to have that all wrapped up this week. I'll post pictures of Jackson's finished nursery sometime this next week! I have everything washed, folded, sorted, and put away. This week, Eric and I put together all of Jackson's baby paraphernalia, including his swing, bouncy seat, stroller, etc., and got his car seat set up in my car, just in case! On a side note, I must say, Graco really needs to invest in a company/employees who demonstrate the ability to write clearer instructions! It's a miracle that Eric and I are speaking to each other, especially after dealing with the swing! :) Eric, Jackson, and I have been so blessed with very generous family and friends and are so very thankful for all of the many gifts we have received.
36 Weeks
How far along: 36 weeks and 4 days
Baby's size: weighs almost 6 pounds
and measures near 18 ½ inches long
Maternity clothes: Although I still
occasionally wear my jeans to work (only with the help of a rubber band!) with
maternity shirts, I try to wear as many dresses or shirts and leggings as
possible. When I’m at home, you won’t
find me in anything but shorts and a t-shirt!
I’m pretty much hating this heat!
Sleep: Over the past few
weeks, I’ve started having trouble getting good sleep. I fall asleep fine, but wake up many times
throughout the night and am unable to go back to sleep. I feel pretty tired most days.
Best moment of the
week: I had a wonderful weekend hanging out with both of our families!
Movement: He is still pretty active. As he is getting bigger, I'm feeling less kicks and more big movements. There is nothing like seeing a knee or his butt stick out!
Food cravings: Still no food
cravings to report! Very odd, isn't it!? I was just telling Eric this week how lucky he is that he hasn't been sent on any midnight craving runs at any point throughout my pregnancy. :)
Symptoms: Acid reflux/indigestion are still pretty common…I pretty much always have a
bottle of Tums nearby. As expected, I'm having to use the bathroom more often. Jackson is starting to move lower so I'm feeling more pressure in my lower abdomen.
Looking forward to: My final baby shower this weekend at church.
