39 Weeks with Maggie

Image
How Far Along: 39 weeks    According to The Bump:  Your Baby is as Big as a Watermelon Baby's probably able to flex limbs now. Baby's brain is still rapidly developing—and getting smarter by the week! Baby's nails may extend past the fingertips. Baby keeps growing, despite being so crowded in there. She probably weighs around 6.2 to 9.2 pounds and measures about 18.9 to 20.9 inches. (That's a big discrepancy) -- The Bump  Sleep:  Braxton Hicks were in full swing the last two nights, so sleep wasn't exactly happening. Ryan and I both have a love-hate relationship with my Boppy Total Body pillow. It's getting old flipping over not to mention pulling the pillow over with me. Just a few more nights!!  This Week: We had a busy week getting lots done. Vann had his 2nd dentist appointment and did fantastic. Vann and I both got our hair cut as well. Ryan and I enjoyed a nice date on Saturday. While we were out we end...

38 Weeks with Maggie Katherine!

How Far Along: 38 weeks    According to The Bump:  Your Baby is as Big as a Pumpkin Baby may have about an inch or so of hair already. Baby's slowly shedding that white goo on her skin (called vernix caseosa) but you might see some of it at birth. Baby is about 18.9 to 20.9 inches long and weighs about 6.2 to 9.2 pounds. The head is now about the same circumference as the abdomen. Sleep:  YES! Much better this week. I have still been getting up a couple times during the night, but I can fall back to sleep much quicker.  This Week:  What a great week! While Vann and I ran errands last Tuesday, a sweet lady came over and cleaned our house. I am talking a deep clean. God bless her and her friend that literally made our house SPARKLE! If you need a recommendation, I would be happy to send you her info. She's an angel and our house looks wonderful. My whole demeanor has changed due to the house being "baby ready"...
