Babywise nothing new to report. Won't have any check ups for a while.
Just extremely busy and stressing to get everything ready, that I am thankfull that my little girl moves around a lot when I sit down.
Getting those reasuring kicks is wonderful. And I actually see her move too. My friends 3 year old was talking/singing to my belly and touching it and suddenly my little girl decided to move around. Ella (the 3 year old) looked at me with big eyes and went 'woooooh'
I have used the following picture before on this forum..but it is exactly how I feel right now.
I normally take over after you @piperella, but I hope someone else will do it this time, as my mind is working overhours getting all this paperwork done for my big move.

My baby has me craving for sweets all the time! I'm usually a savory person, but now all I want is cake, chocolate, cookies and ice cream!
@Piperella I'm not sure if I can post from my mobile but if so I would take over after you if no one else volunteers. Just need to know how it's done.
@tvh1982 how cute is that!
@Rachd110 my appetite has increased greatly as of recently. I used to have a major sweet tooth now it's more savory.
Have a dr´s appt next week to see our LO again and check my labs and I assume my cervix. Can´t believe we´re in the home stretch!
Last night , it was so hard to be comfortable at the couch
I hadn't updated because I'm lazy. I had my 36w U/S Tuesday and found out that Flint has flipped head down so I'm very excited about that. I still know there is a chance he can flip back around but I'm hoping he listens to me and is a good little baby. Tomorrow I have my Ob appt where we do my first measurements on dilation and such.. not looking forward to that as much (but at least we don't have to talk about external versions and such).
I just got called out on my waddling yesterday. It hurt my feelings a tiny bit as I thought I had been doing pretty well, but obviously I'm growing like crazy in these past few weeks. I can't believe Sunday I will be 37 weeks!
Thanks @Piperella. I'll try to as well
But I had no problem using it and I was quick yeast free

My little peanut is still a little peanut. After losing a little it off weight, she is starting to gain and today has surpassed her birth weight! She is 3lbs 3.3 oz and starting to take a little food by mouth! I can't wait to take my little munchkin home.
Today was a good day! Her weight is up and she surpassed her birth weight. The temp on her incubator is almost to room temperature and they stopped giving her caffeine (which they do to help with breathing) and she ate 3ml of milk! Hopefully just another 2ish weeks, but who knows.
AFM, I spend 5 hours at the women's clinic as my LO decided to stop moving since Friday afternoon. I did get an occasional kick, but no proper movement and boy did I try.
At the clinic they put me on the monitor and then forgot about me. So was on it for over an hour. Some kicks got registrated and a nice heartbeat. Yet also contractions got registrated (the ones I was told to ignore) that with the pressure I've been having as she's ready to come out and decrease of movement they felt like a doctor should look at it.
After waiting some more, as I wasn't an emergency I got to wait a looooong time. I got to see my little girl, moving! I just don't feel her. She is laying ready, like ready ready as they had trouble getting a proper measurement of her head as its all the way down there. Which explains the pressure.
Due to previous pre-stage of cervix cancer they checked my cervix as its been shortened. But it's actually an average size and closed.
So conclusion: my little girl was just being a little shit to not move proper, as she did once I got home to get some sleep, I'll keep having pressure the rest of the way and can keep ignoring the fake contractions.

Someone is indeed ready, but her mummy isn't yet, so hope indeed she stays in there cooking a wee bit @jerseygirl856.
Today she was just her usually self with regular movement. (And I'll just ignore the rest like I've been told)
