37+1

Full term!!! Yay!

Things haven't really improved much in terms of well being. I'm still really exhausted, headaches are really bad. Muscles are just aching all over, sciatica is playing up etc. Insomnia is in full swing, I think I am lucky if I get 2 hours solid sleep a night. A new thing is extreme heart burn. It was easing off and I had only needed to take 1x150mg once a day. The last
2 days I'm in extreme pain. It never goes away even after a tablet. It was never this bad with Tyler. I have started taking my morning one in hope it helps.

Maybe bub is going through a growth spurt? I really didn't think there was much more for him to grow. He has been super super active of late but is really quiet today only the odd movement here and there so a growth spurt seems likely.

His hiccups are driving me bonkers. He has then 4 maybe 5 times a day. I know it's really good for lung development but because he is so big they can actually get painful, especially when he gets annoyed in the end and gives me a mighty kick.

Only 20days to go and honestly if I am going to feel like this the whole time it's going to be a very long 20days. I have started the iron tablets again so hopefully that helps but it's too the point where if I don't sit down i know I will fall down.

Started packing my hospital bag today. Lol better later than never. I very much doubt the little man will arrive early but seeing as B certainly wouldn't be able to pack a bag for me I thought i should get it done. Best part has been packing the clothes for bub. :)

My body has decided to suck in a heap of fluid of late. I have notice my feet and legs are slightly puffy and my face certainly is. I have put on 2kg in the last week!!! I know it will come off in the couple of weeks after bub is born but still seeing those numbers jump up so much is never enjoyable! Even though dr A said it's unlikely for my BP to jump now the fluid retention and increase in weight is something to keep in mind and i am going to monitor my BP just to make sure the hypertension isn't becoming an issue.

On the Tyler front he has been really good lately. It still amazes me how much they change in such a small period of time.

Well enough procrastinating I really should get back to the house work and finish packing this bag. Damn heat today is making it very hard!! Please let it storm or at least rain.
