Here we are folks...we're nearing the end of the marathon! Speaking of, did anyone see the woman on the news who ran a marathon at 38 weeks?! WOW! I cannot imagine! I am officially 20 days from the BIG DAY! I have now started getting asked, "are you still pregnant?!"..."oh WOW when are you due, you're HUGE?!"...strangers are SO kind sometimes, not. I really don't like being told that "there is NO WAY you'll make it to your due date" by random people at Target. One of my new favorite things to do is to call my mom :-) Each time I call she now answers and immediately says "are you in labor?!" then she giggles and says it's just so much more fun to answer the phone THAT way! Ha! Thanks mom! It does make me laugh though!
How Far Along: 37 Weeks=FULL TERM!!!
Size of Baby: Between 19-20inches long and about 6 pounds! WOW!
Total Weight Gain: 18 pounds officially
Maternity Clothes: Yes, and some non-maternity sweaters
Gender: Girl :-)
Movement: Still a TON! Watching my belly roll around is so entertaining! I love it!
What I Miss: Bending over! Cleaning/nesting is MUCH harder when you can't bend over!
Cravings: Milk still and Chick-fil-A Tea, that one may be from my tiredness during the day! Momma needs a pick me up! Also I randomly and MAJORLY craved a Dr. Pepper a few days ago! I went right to Chick-fil-A and got one! It was SO GOOD. I haven't had a DP in forever!
Symptoms: Oh gosh...everything?! haha Heartburn, BH contractions, not sleeping, I'm hungry ALL the time...even after I've eaten dinner!
Best Moment of the Week: Having a fun weekend with friends and the Hubster! He got Columbus day off and it was wonderful just to spend the day together! Also, Monday morning he put his ear up to my belly (where her little back is) and was able to hear her heartbeat! I was so jealous! I kept saying, "I wish I could bend that way!" The Hubster insisted it was only fair that he got to hear her heartbeat that way because I get to feel her move around all day long! :-)
What I'm Looking Forward To: My next doctors appointment! I just love going! Also finishing up the nursery and doing the big reveal! It's SO CLOSE! But not there quite yet! I can't wait to share it!
Baby Bump
Here we are...FULL TERM! :-)
I've created an online guessing game for when Emma Claire will make her big arrival! Go make a guess, see how close you can get!

Ahh you're too cute! Please just once look like a lazy sloppy pregnant lady haha.
I agree with Anna-Kate, you look so cute!
I am ready to see that nursery!
He heard her heartbeat??? That's amazing! And I seriously question what is wrong with some people. No class.
Hang in there...only a few more days to go since she will be born on October 16 at 4pm...the date and time of my wedding. Haha! Celebrating 12 years this Sunday!
Who in the world is telling you that you are huge?!? You are tee-tiny!! Take it from the woman who gains (and loses, PTL) at least 45 pounds each pregnancy, you look great! My littlest came at 37 weeks, so I always get really excited when I hear that someone has reached the 37 week mark. So excited for you!
Yaaay yaaay yaaay!! Congratulations on making it to full term! You look so wonderful! :)
I'm like you, I loved going to the doctor- well up until this week haha now I'm just ready to go to the hospital :) hahah still can't wait to see your nursery!!! :)
How in the world are you already at the end of your pregnancy!?!? Crazy. And seriously you gotta smack the next person who tells you they don't think you will hang on til the end or that you're huge... no way! I still say you have a tiny little baby bump. Super cute!
Congrats on making it full term! I can't wait for the nursery reveal :-)
You are looking great! My goodness...I am hungry ALL the time too! That's funny about your mom answering the phone that way! We are both so close to meeting our sweeties! Are your bags packed?! I'm waking up in the middle of the night worried because I haven't finished packing our bags, ha!
You are just too precious!!!
You look amazing. I'm totally impressed on the 18 pounds too. I definitely gained 35 with my daughter, but maybe that's because she didn't decide to come until 41 weeks.
You are SO cute!
You're tiny and fabulous! Can't wait to see the nursery :)
