Maternity clothes: I'm wearing all maternity clothes or yoga pants.
Stretch marks: There are a couple new ones that just popped up on my belly.
Sleep: I have been waking up a lot during the night this week. Often to pee, or just shift and get more comfortable.
Best moment this week: Our last meeting with our doula. We went over labor positions and relaxation techniques. Now I feel like we are ready for baby to come!
Miss anything? Being able to move like normal! It hurts to move--even the tiny motion of turning the steering wheel when driving (the slight shift of my pelvis) hurts!
Movement: Yes! He moves a lot now!

Gender: It's a boy!
Labor signs: No real signs yet. At my appointment on Friday (1/22), I was told that I'm a full 2cm dilated, 60% effaced, and baby is in -1 station (no wonder I'm in so much pain!) The nurse practitioner I saw said chances were good I'd have him within a week, so we will see!
