Pregnancy Journal- 36 Weeks!

Its coming down to the final countdown now! I turned 36 weeks on Thursday July 8th. I have 26 days left until my EDD! Wow! I can't believe it...or can I? I have hit the exhaustion part. There is not enough hours in the day to sleep, I feel as if I have no energy. I'm not complaining one bit though, because I am very blessed and happy to have this pregnancy and I will continue to be strong and enjoy every minute of the pregnancy until the very end. I know labor will be approaching me soon as I feel some of the ending signs coming on as I had when I was nearing the end of my pregnancy with my daughter. My nausea has came back, and I'm to the point where eating just a bite, I'm so full! Lol.

I had an OB appointment yesterday morning. The usual check up. My little man is head down still, heartbeat was good and strong, and he was kicking the doppler when my nurse was listening for it. Not much I can really update this week. My doctor said he will check next week for dilation.

I have been having contractions for a couple weeks now, but now they are starting to become more frequent but of course still irregular. My contractions do NOT hurt, (they didn't hurt when I was pregnant with Livi either). All I feel when I have a contraction is the tightening in my belly and they take my breath away. I'm hoping my contractions continue to stay like that, and I have an easy labor as before! Wish me luck!

I've been wondering on when he is gonna make his arrival. I'm thinking anywhere between July 30th- August 1st is when he will show. Any guesses from you all? My due date is Aug. 5th and Livi came 5 days early. So who knows.:] We shall see. Until then, I will leave you with a few belly pics.

Here is the front view bare belly. Don't mind my tummy marks...Cause I don't.
