I am 35 weeks and the size of a coconut! I unfortunately had a stomach bug hit me earlier this week, so I am slowly getting back to normal. I would not wish being this far along in pregnancy and getting sick on my worst enemy. Not a pleasant experience. Now I am just dealing with sore ribs and a little tenderness in my tummy. I have my appetite back and am not as dehydrated anymore.

My favorite baby purchase is what my Mom bought. She purchased our stroller and car seat travel system. So beautiful. I am truly blessed to have such wonderful parents and grandparents to this unborn child!

I'm week 37! A winter melon, whatever that his.

Can impatience be a symptom? So ready for him to be here! Also had some false labor Monday, that was fun! So frustrating having it hurt and knowing it's not getting me the baby!

I'm doing a lot of crafting so I'm answering it that way. I love the little squid hat I made him and the bib with the elephant whose trunk holds a pacifier!

I'm week 36 and I already forget what fruit size... I think it's a honey dew melon?

Symptoms... um all of them? Morning sickness is back, carpal tunnel is terrible, sciatica is terrible, swelling, constant headaches, contractions, round ligament pain, and a a golf ball sized nasal polyp trying to push my eye out of my head (okay not really but it feels like it) have pretty much confined me to a couch. I feel like a miserable failure at this point. I can't work and we can't afford me not to but here I'm stuck. I'm having a lot of anxiety and guilt because of this too.

So far my favorite purchase is probably her changing table. Weird right? I found it in a thrift store for 30 dollars and its a beautiful sturdy wood table. I then got it from them for 20 dollars! Yeah. I'm pretty stoked about that lol.

What week/size fruit are you? 36 weeks; honeydew, I think

Symptoms? A LOT of BH. They are really uncomfortable more than anything else, but they also make me really tired. Other than that, just upper back pain.

What has been your favorite baby purchase so far? We received some amazing gifts. My favorite is our swing. I am also really proud of the baby blanket I made for Amelia. I think it came out great.

What week/size fruit are you? Week 35, either a coconut or honeydew melon.

Symptoms? Sore hands, swollen hands and feet. Ligament pain in the lady parts that makes me waddle like a duck.

What has been your favorite baby purchase so far? We just received our latest order: Baby Aspen's My Little Night Owl outfit and Baby Aspen's Let the Fin Begin shark robe. I think we've been most excited about those. Way cute!

I am the size of a coconut! And I hit the 35/35 mark today... thank GOD! I am ready.

Today has been a day. Normally I just have some BH off and on all day. Today they have been literally ALL DAY. They take my breath away sometimes! But they haven't been a consistant time-- more like every 10-15 minutes. Also, busted half a tooth off yesterday, and the dentist is refusing to treat me without written permission from my OB, so I have been running back and forth all day making appointments and phone calls. Lastly, the heartburn is incredible. I forgot to take my Zantac before bed last night and I woke up at 2am so wretchedly sick, I thought I was coming down with the stomach flu again!

I don't think I have a favorite baby purchase yet. Sad We have hardly picked up anything for the baby.
