(It\u2019s Sunday as I write this, I\u2019m 36 weeks and 3 days.)<br \/><strong>Maternity clothes?<\/strong> I\u2019m still working from home which means I\u2019m wearing basically the same lounge outfits every day. And I\u2019m still super stretching out some of my non-maternity things! I may need to do some shopping when this baby comes&#8230;<br \/><strong>Sleep<\/strong>: oh sleep. You are such a strange thing now. I\u2019m SO ready for sleep by the time the evening rolls around, but usually only sleep for about 2 hours at a time before waking up to pee and or switch sides. Whichever side I sleep on gets so sore after those two short hours, I really don\u2019t remember this part with Milly! I\u2019m up everyday by 5:30am to have my coffee and quiet time. By that point I\u2019m just ready to sit up to ease the soreness. <br \/><strong>Best moments this week:<\/strong> Marty has been away this weekend for a much needed guys weekend so it\u2019s just been me and Milly. And the bump. ;) It\u2019s super exhausting for me to care for her by myself lately but we actually had a really good weekend. The weather cooled A LOT and it completely felt like fall so we did some Halloween decorating. We also had some hot beverages on a blanket outside and I let her play on her swing set since the smoke had cleared. We also made homemade pizza, and I let her take a special bath in my tub. I love weekends like this.<br \/><strong>Miss Anything:<\/strong> gosh. I miss not being sore all the time. <br \/><strong>Movement:<\/strong> such big movements! She is so running out of room!!<br \/><strong>Food cravings:<\/strong> hmmm&#8230; peanut butter is my jam lol<br \/><strong>Anything making you queasy or sick:<\/strong> nope! Symptoms: a super sore tummy!!! I swear, she is positioned much farther \u201cout\u201d then Milly was and I am feeling it! This weekend my belly has been super sore in the areas she likes to push out on&#8230; so I think I may be stretched to max capacity over here. Laying back is my only relief, but when you have a toddler, that is not always an option. <br \/><strong>Have you started to show yet:<\/strong> hugely<br \/><strong>Gender:<\/strong> baby girl<br \/><strong>Labor Signs:<\/strong> just some unalarming Braxton Hicks contractions here and there<br \/><strong>Belly Button in or out?<\/strong> Out &#8211; that\u2019s one of her favorite spots to kick and put pressure on<br \/><strong>Wedding rings on or off?<\/strong> On<br \/><strong>Happy or Moody most of the time:<\/strong> happy except when working hah. Work has been piling it on me lately as I am trying to wrap up a bunch of things in anticipation of my leave. <br \/><strong>Weekly Wisdom:<\/strong> if online shopping for baby things, order them WAY early! Things have been selling out, plus delivery times are taking way longer so we do not wait around when it comes to ordering things. I\u2019ve still been staying home most of the time because of Covid so I have to say&#8230; I miss target. And I\u2019m sure target misses me too. <br \/><strong>Looking Forward To: <\/strong>October 1st!!! A week and a half to go. I\u2019m just so excited for it to be baby girls due date month, and if she decides to come early I still want her to be an October baby like her sissy! Plus I have SO MANY things to look forward to this October! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/momentsdontcollectdust.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/img_3707-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8835\" srcset=\"https:\/\/momentsdontcollectdust.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/img_3707-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/momentsdontcollectdust.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/img_3707-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/momentsdontcollectdust.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/img_3707-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/momentsdontcollectdust.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/img_3707-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/momentsdontcollectdust.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/img_3707-708x944.jpg 708w, https:\/\/momentsdontcollectdust.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/img_3707-scaled.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How far along? 36 weeksTotal weight gain: 24 pounds as of my appointment on Thursday.
