Weekly Update

How far along? 36 weeks (Starting the 9th month, only 3 weeks to go! Yippee! )

Total weight gain/loss: +28lbs

Sleep: some days ok, some days not...

Best moment this week: Spending the weekend in Victoria, BC. Missing the 90 degree weather (again!) Swimming in the hotel pool.

Movement: Slowing down a little, maybe. I am looking lopsided most of the time.

Food cravings: water, pop, fruit, popsicles, rootbeer floats

Gender: It's a GIRL!

Belly Button in or out? Out

What I miss: eating without having heartburn

What I am looking forward to: Holding our little girl on September 7th, 3 more weeks!

Baby Development: She is now around 6lbs, still gaining about 1/2lb per week and might be about 20inches long (though probably shorter, Jacob was only 19in at birth). Of interesting note: most of baby's systems are ready for life on the outside, circulatory system to musculoskeletal systems.
