I am 37 weeks! At my 36-week appointment, they measured and estimated him at 7 pounds already….I know those things can be off by a full pound either way, but still pretty large! I was also 1 cm dilated. None of this really means anything labor-wise, mainly just that I got a big boy in there and things are starting to get uncomfortable!
As far as symptoms and comfort, I am still able to sleep really well, although getting into a good position is a little trickier. Depending on the weather, my ankles are definitely getting swollen, and I’ve officially removed my wedding rings…just in case! Also my face is all fat and round. yayyyy. Sitting at my desk is not particularly comfortable, but luckily I only have 2-3 weeks of work left. Getting all of my stuff at work organized for when I leave has been going well, although at this point I’m pretty much out-to-lunch and ready to just be like BYE.
