36 weeks, 28 days until Adrienne's due date!

Last week we did a few really exciting things. Brad celebrated the wedding of his childhood friend Zach in Scappoose and spent a little bit of time with his family ( i stayed home due to night shift). And my mom visited me to have pedicures and do a massage. It was nice to have my mom here, the massage was relaxing and we spent some time shopping/ hanging curtains in the nursery and picking out things for the office.

Annette, maddie, myself, and my mom enjoyed pedicures together which was well worth 27 dollars at 35+ weeks pregnant! It was very relaxing and enjoyable.
We visited some friends and family in CleElum for a day trip. Kaya had a lot of fun swimming in the lake and brad and I enjoyed seeing all of our friends that we hadnt seen in a few months. Adrienne moved around and had the hiccups for people to feel and it was definitely nice. 

and for my personal milestone of the week i finished my first set of assignments for my masters degree and got A's, so we are off to a good start!
 

Now for the weekly Stats!
How many weeks: 36 weeks and 5 days today. 
This week baby is...... about 19 inches. 
This week our baby weighs..... 6.5- 6.75 Lbs. maybe even 7, who knows at this point?  Her weight was estimated at 5lb 15 oz at the 34 week appointment. roughly 76th percentile. She is right on track to be an 8ish LB baby. That is unless we actually go to 40 or 41 weeks then she could be bigger.... who knows. Measurements are done based on femur length so we could have a tall baby that is charting bigger because her legs are long?? or just an overall big baby? i guess we will find out in a few weeks. 
This week  baby girl.....Is still growing fast! Her lungs are now functional! Although, she really should stay put for at least 1 more week in my opinion. She can now turn and lift her head. Miss Adrienne just needs to focus on gaining weight at this point! 
 Boy or girl? GIRL!!!
Total weight gain/ loss: +30 ish. Hopefully we stay about right here.
Showing: yep
Maternity Clothes: Definitely in maternity clothes now.
Best moment this week: Baby moved in response to daddy touching belly, music on the radio, and kaya barking. Its really cool to see her movements correlate with stimulation now!
Food cravings: nothing, my appetite is slowly diminishing. 
Miss anything?: Sushi!!everything else i have seemed to find an adequate substitute for but nothing can replace sushi!
Anything making you sick: Heartburn all the time.
Pregnancy symptoms: third trimester tiredness, insomnia, and heartburn continue. The tired is still pretty brad sometimes, but we are back on day shift and finally able to catch up on sleep on my days off! It feels nice.
Movement: yep. She moves around like crazy all the time. Her head was still down and sitting pretty low at 34 weeks. She just needs to stay put and work on moving that head down to put some pressure on my cervix.
Gender prediction: It's a Girl!
We call our baby:  Adrienne Elizabeth Gochnauer is her name!
Looking forward to: 37 weeks and a term baby on monday!


Until Next Week,
Shyla
