38 weeks

we've made it to 38 weeks and counting!  no real changes to report this week.  we had another visit to the birthing center this morning and everything is still great.  our little girl still has a strong heartbeat and good measurements, although it does seem she has "dropped."  i noticed this sometime around the beginning of the week, when i suddenly realized that i could breathe again.  nice!  guess she's getting ready to make her big debut sometime in the next week, or two, or three.  we'll just have to wait and see!

maternity quiz
total weight gain: ~17 lbs
maternity clothes: no changes this week
sleep: just enjoying getting to sleep through the night on my nights off.  i know these days are numbered!
best moment this week: another week down, still cooking! 
cravings: apple juice!
what i miss:  being able to hug matt without my tummy in the way.  but this is only a short-term problem ;)
what i'm looking forward to: meeting this sweet girl!
weekly wisdom: remember that there's no way to plan for what's ahead, just enjoy what you can!
milestones: more pregnant than i've ever been :)
