39 weeks...the LAST bumpdate!

As you read this, we'll be in the hospital waiting to meet our sweet baby! Be sure to follow me on Instagram for updates and to see when Crew makes his debut into the world! @courtkassner


How far along are you?
39 weeks! It's so hard to believe we'll be meeting our son TODAY!!

How big is Baby?
He's the size of a watermelon - His brain is still rapidly developing - His fingernails may extend past his fingertips - We'll find out his exact weight today!

Weight Gain? 
32 lbs.
I'm ready to start working towards my pre-baby body!

 Gender?
a boy!

Maternity Clothes?
Yep

Stretch Marks?
A few on the bottom of my belly since about 35 weeks

 Sleep?
I haven't been sleeping well through the night, but that's nothing new. I'm sure it's just nerves mixed with being so large and uncomfortable! Since being off work for a week now, I've been able to sleep in every morning and try and stock up on some sleep hours!

Symptoms?
Nausea - reflux - face breakouts - cramping

Movement?
He's had his feet crammed up against my ribs this past week and it's been so uncomfortable! I've got to sit up extra straight to try and give myself some more breathing room!

Food Cravings/Aversions?
neither

Labor Signs?
Right now...yes!

Belly Button in or out?
Out

What I miss?
Being mobile!

What I am looking forward to?
Meeting our son TODAY!

Best moment of the week?
Obviously, we're having Crew today

Daddy's feeling?
"Holy moly! This is really happening! I keep trying to think about what its going to be like to hold Crew for the first time...but I don't know what to think because I know that actually holding him will be more awesome than anything I can imagine. I can't wait to meet our son. I can't wait to be a dad with the most amazing mom in the world. What a blessing!" 

I’m feeling?
I'm nervous about how labor will go. I'm anxious. I'm just ready to hold Crew in my arms. It's so crazy to think about how one minute he'll be in my belly and the next we'll be holding him and kissing him. I can't wait!
