Kendry {36 Weeks}



How far along? 36 Weeks.  Also, he looks just soooo much like his brothers in this pic!!! ahhh I can't wait to squeeze him. 
Total weight gain: 15 lbs. My doctor wants me to gain 5 more lbs in hopes that it'll get Kendry to gain a little weight. So she has me eating all the protein I can!
Maternity clothes? Yep! I'm so ready for all of my regular clothes, especially now that its been warmer and I just miss jean shorts and a tee!
Stretch marks? Not yet.
Sleep: Sleep has been pretty good still. I haven't spent as much time napping the past two weeks...I think my my "nesting" has caused me to do a lot more work and a lot less sleep.  As of right now it's 11:15pm on Saturday night and here I am doing this...because I want to make sure I document it! But I'm tired haha. 

Miss Anything? My regular clothes, no back pain and sangria.  We went to dinner tonight and some of Nate's aunts had sangria and Nate said "there's not a lot of alcohol that Naomi misses when she's pregnant...but if there's one, it's probably sangria".  So they told me it was terrible but I know better than that. 
Movement: He's still active! Rolling, pushing, shoving and just swimming all over :)  
Food cravings: Nothing right now. 
Anything making you queasy or sick: No.  
Labor Signs: None
Symptoms: I can definitely tell this pregnancy has been the hardest on my body.  While I'm still really fortunate that I feel good 90% of my day, by the end of the day I am so tired and my back hurts.  Other than the tiredness and my back, it's really been good so I don't have much to complain about!
Gender: BOY
Belly Button in or out? Officially out :) 
Wedding rings on or off? On
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy!  I will admit to being a bit more irritable the last week or so, and Nate would probably agree....so would Jacoby and Maddox! ha!
Looking forward to: We have another BPP on Monday and they are doing a weight check, so we should know what his size is looking.  I'm praying for a good weight check and that he continues to pass his tests 8/8.  As of right now, my doctor is thinking I will be induced at 38 weeks.  She said if his weight and size are continuing to look good, she could be talked into 39, but 38 weeks is probably when they'll kick him out.  I know it seems weird that because he's small, they get him out earlier.  They're just worried that my placenta is going to fail (which is why 2x/week appts keep a good eye on him), and at 38 weeks...there's really no difference between outside/inside the womb, but obviously being outside we would know he's ok.  So we don't have an official induction date, which I'm fine with for now.  We are taking it a couple of days at a time and are just trying to be prepared.  While I LOVE being pregnant and will miss it greatly, I am soooo excited to have this precious boy in my arms! 

xox,

Naomi
