37 Weeks HUGE with #3

see what I mean...nothing fits me!
PregnancHighlights:

How Far Along: 37 Weeks 

Size of baby: a little over 6 pounds according to Babycenter (winter melon)

Total Weight Gain/Loss: 25 lbs! whoa! and still 2-3 weeks to go.

Maternity Clothes: Mostly maternity...my maternity stuff barely fits now! I am just going to stay in yoga pants.  I am done working now so I can! :)

 Gender: We aren't finding out!  Neil and I were talking the other day about how people will just stare at my stomach and say "I know it's a boy or That is definitely a girl!"  It is fun to have people guess.

Movement: kicking and moving while I am still...I start to get nervous if I don't feel movement for a while

Sleep: I sleep really well except for my every 1-2 hour bathroom breaks and hip pain

What I miss: pain-free living due to tail bone/hip issues...it really feels like my pelvis is breaking every time I get out of bed. And I want to sleep on my back.  

Cravings: I have been loving grape juice, cold items, dry cereal, salads, and parfaits.

 Symptoms:  Same ole', same ole'.  Just getting bigger and bigger by the day.  Feeling VERY tired.  I am constantly worried about this baby!  I guess it's my 3rd so I just get scared.  I was so naive with Bennett, but I guess everyone deserves a care-free pregnancy.

Best Moment this week: Going to the doctor and hearing the heartbeat today which was 156. I am dilated 2 cm and the baby is very low she says at a -2.  This is my first official week of maternity leave and I can't describe the joy I feel! Oh, and I tried to April Fool's Neil by telling him that they accidentally told me what we were having, but he didn't take the bait! :)
