  1. How many weeks along are you? How big is baby?

  36 weeks - a papaya
  
  2. How are you feeling lately?

  I feel pretty good, but by the end of the day I get a bit sore, so I've been taking a lot of epsom salt baths and it helps with the body pain.
  
  3. Any appointments coming up?
  My weekly ones start next Tuesday, and I start 2x a week NST's
  
  4. Rants, Raves, Questions?

  I got an email through Target since Im 30 days from my due date, I can process my breast pump through insurance now and they will finally deliver it.  Which is pretty exciting!
  
  5. What dish(es) are you bringing to Thanksgiving? 
  I will bring a pumpkin pie (my child requested it)  I don't usually bring anything since when ever I ask, everyone always tells me no.

  1. How many weeks along are you? How big is baby? 
  38 Weeks! The size of a winter melon/spaghetti squash   
  
  2. How are you feeling lately?
  very up and down. Alittle nervous I’m not going to be able to tell the deference between Braxton-Hicks and Real contractions. Heartburn has geared up alit now and I’m experiencing Braxton Hicks all day now. This is going to be a long week. 
  
  3. Any appointments coming up?
  I thought I had one today but it’s not till Friday. 
  
  4. Rants, Raves, Questions?
  Totally bummed my appt isn’t till Friday now. Lol. I know it’s only two days away but I had some questions and needed to be reassured. My rave is I’m super excited for this coming weekend to just spend it completely uninterrupted with DH. 
  Has anyone else started getting really strong Braxton-Hicks?
  
  
  5. What dish(es) are you bringing to Thanksgiving? 
  My famous sautéed garlic buttered spinach

  Once you experience a real contraction you will quickly be able to tell the difference between them. It may not feel like it now but you will be able too. It's been a few years since My last child. But from the differences I had were the Braxton hicks were more light a tight hug and my belly would get hard but not all over. My real contractions took my breath away a little bit and your whole entire stomach was rock hard.  So far that's pretty much how they have been this time as well.
  
  Hope you get the answers to your questions on Friday at your appt.
  
  Have a good Thanksgiving as well!

  @ShyTonia I don't think I'd be able to give up my baths. I take one daily with Epsom salt.  Helps a ton with pain. When I was having a lot of contractions with my first I did sit in the tub for hours and it helps ease the contractions, makes your body feel weightless. If I were you I'd go take a bath, enjoy it and get some relaxing in.
