Long overdue update

So it has been FOREVER since I have made a post.  The holidays and preparing for the baby is taking all of my attention. I am almost 37 weeks...FULL TERM baby!!! So happy.  So I was feeling great.  My honeymoon phase started around 28 weeks.  at 36 weeks I turned into a 75 year old woman.  Hip pain, soreness, short breath, need help getting off the couch.  But overall, doing okay. 

Did a 3d ultrasound.  I will post pics soon.  He was not very cooperative but we had a great tech that went over and beyond and we did get some nice face shots. I am now the one with the wobble.  LOL.  I didn't think it would happen but i definitely have the pregnancy swag.  Oh and stretch marks came around week 35..it was like ugh..but I have learned to accept it..

I am gaining weight like crazy.  Idk who came up with the 25-35 weight gain but my body is going pass that.  I refuse to share the number.  I wish I did not know.  I dont't look huge at all. Face not swollen, bump not exteremely big by any means.  I guess my hips, thighs, and bewbs are storing it.  I am not eating crazy (although not nearly as healthy as before the baby). I basically eat when I am hungry and stop when I am full.  I eat a number of heatlhy meals and snacks.  But will indulge as well.  I have exercise on and off during the pregnancy although currently I am off.  Either way I am over it now.  I just have to focus after the baby to loose.

In the end I know he will be worth every system, sacrifice, and struggle...I can't wait to meet him..

I guess that it is...
