Week 37


Past the 37th week mark and considered full-term!

Yesterday's appointment went well with no concerns noted. I've gained 34lbs so far and am dilated just above 1 cm with 50% effacement. We're making progress. 

I'm feeling well and actually have a bit of energy and lots of motivation, so I'm wrapping up some projects around the house. 

My feet continue to swell throughout the day but reduce overnight. The swelling hasn't been as bad as the prior few weeks and with that the aches and soreness are gone from my ankles and feet - yeah. I feel my lower back clicking and popping; I assume that goes along with my hips shifting. With that no pain just mild awkward feeling then I have relief. My wrists and hands continue to be regular strength, haven't needed my carpal tunnel braces since that early spell, which has been really nice.

Something special - I think Rick was joking and teasing a bit but ended up giving me an awesome compliment :) He said something like if you have any kind of athletic ability/physical strength; I think it is pregnancy - healthy pregnancies. Ha-ha, I love that! I seem to be an efficient baby maker :)

  1. Yeah, full term!!! Careful with that boost of energy but yes use it to your advantage... When motivated is the best time to get projects done indeed! I hope your feet stay reasonably looking like feet despite the swelling (Poor Meghan). Watch your back and that waddle, don't let it get to you :) So glad you had no carpal tunnel business this time around:) Oh btw, I too was a great baby maker: despite all my illnesses I could produce very efficiently! :D
