36 weeks!

How far along?: 36w3d
How big is the baby?: still the size of a honeydew
Weight gain/loss: 28 lbs!
Pregnancy symptoms: sensitive gums, growing belly, round ligament pain, extra emotional. Suprisingly, I feel great except for my pulled muscle. I feel like I have my energy back. I've been nesting big time.
Maternity clothes: anything loose
Stretch Marks:  None! ~4 more weeks. Baby Jarbs please spare me! lol
Sleep: Since I have been on my staycation, sleep has been way better. I only get up 2-3x a night and I get long naps during the day.
Best moment this week: When Daddy Jarbs told me he's excited and ready for Baby Jarbs' arrival :-)
Movement: Yes! We had a ball watching my belly get distorted as she rolls, turns, twitches
Food cravings: purple sweet potato, honey nut cheerios
Food aversions: none
Labor signs: none that I am aware of
Belly button in or out: I have admitted the fact that I am now an outie. Hope my belly button goes back to it's normal state after delivery.
What I miss: Not feeling any aches and pains everytime I move
What I am looking forward to: 36-week appointment on Thursday
Milestones:


Baby's skin is getting smooth and soft, her gums are rigid, her liver and kidneys are in working order, and her circulation and immune system are basically good to go. Her lungs are the only organs that still need to fully mature, but every day she gets a little closer to breathing on her own.
