How far along: 37w1d
Total weight gain: 31lbs :(
Size and growth of the baby: about 6 1/3lbs. & over 19 inches long
DOCTOR'S NOTES: Anticipating a 7ish pound baby and a couple of weeks before the arrival. Heartrate was 150.
From my weekly email: Your baby is now considered full term, even though your due date is still three weeks away. If you go into labor now, his/her lungs will likely be mature enough to fully adjust to life outside the womb. Many babies have a full head of hair at birth, with locks from 1/2 inch to 1 1/2 inches long.
Sex: the guessing games have started!
Maternity clothes: Oh yes!
Sleep: better...we now have SIX pillows & the HUGE maternity pillow in bed!
Movement: yes
Best moment(s) of the week: hearing we should be able to hold our little one in just a couple of weeks! :)
Food cravings/aversions: nothing special
Symptoms: lots of swelling in my feet!
Belly button in or out: flat
Belly button in or out: flat
What I miss: not much...just excited to hold my baby!
What I'm looking forward to: finishing the nursery and packing the hospital bags
WARNING....If you aren't a feet person DO NOT SCROLL DOWN

The photo doesn't completely show the 'roundness' of them. They're about the circumference of a can of soda.
A little itchy, a lot tight, really weird to feel fluid move in the top of your foot when you walk.
