He's shedding most of the downy hair that covered his body, as well as the vernix caseosa, the waxy substance that protected his skin during his nine-month amniotic bath. He will be full term next week!
Best Moment this Week
Hmm, it's been a pretty average week with good moments & bad moments. Nothing specific. :)
Gender
BOY! Jack Wesley.
Movement
Jack has been fairly active this week (compared to usual, anyways). I believe he moved a little lower in the past couple of days, too.
Food Craving
No cravings I can think of. Food still kind of grosses me out a lot of the time.
Sleep
Sleep is continuing to get more uncomfortable. I wake up a lot, & have a hard time getting back to sleep. If I'm up a while, I start to get hungry/nauseous so I have to get up & drink some apple juice in order to get back to sleep.
What I am looking forward to
We are looking to take Elliot to the circus, so that will be fun! I also have some fun dates planned with friends over the next couple of weeks.
Symptoms
My hip/back/foot pain has been off & on; I think the chiropractor is helping. My stomach is upset easily, not sleeping well, Braxton Hicks/cramping.
