37 Weeks Pregnant

How far along? 37 weeks - home stretch!
Maternity clothes?  Not many, my uniform these days are yoga pants and a tank/tshirt. 
Stretch marks?  Yes I swear they are taking over my stomach now. They seem to be getting worse but with 3 weeks to go I don't know what else to do about them. Oh well. 
Best moment this week: This was a pretty rough week symptoms wise but I got a massage on Thursday that was just heavenly!
Miss anything? Yes, my old body. I love my belly but lately the extra weight and aches and pains are just making me really miss my old body. 
Movement: Lots!
Food cravings: Still none - so boring!
Anything making you queasy or sick: My acid reflux nearly makes me sick and now when I cough too hard I gag myself. What a delightful symptom!
Gender: Boy
Symptoms: On Tuesday I woke up with a horrible pain in my back. By mid day it had spread to my stomach and I was having constant cramps and pains. It was the strangest thing. I called my midwife and they weren't sure what was going on. I didn't sleep at all that entire night and the next day the pain was worse. I went to my midwife and they took blood and urine. Pretty sure I had a kidney stone r something. They are monitoring me closely for Pre-eclampsia as well because of my blood pressure being high. Fingers crossed that shiz stays away!
Labor signs: No major signs yet
Belly button in or out? Out
Wedding rings on or off? On
Happy or moody most of the time: happy and emotional. This week with all the pains I was a little moody but overall my spirits have remained high 
Looking forward to: Meeting this little guy! Really hoping he comes soon :)
