36 Weeks

Here we each are at 36 weeks along:

What can I say? Dan makes really good brownies! As for real pregnancy updates I will have this baby by the 20th of April. My doctor won't let me go past that date. I'm hoping more for the beginning of April but that might be pushing my luck. I'm still doing pretty well. I sleep through the night sometimes and other nights I am up several times peeing. Rolling over and getting out of bed is a little painful because my lower back gets so sore. But once I am up and going I am fine. I'm still working and I think that makes a big difference staying busy. My blood pressure and weight are good and baby/my belly are measuring just right. I am having to eat smaller portions and sit up after I eat or I get bad heartburn. Eating smaller portions though means I am eating very often. I take food with me to work but it is usually all gone by 11 so I end up eating out for lunch anyways. I have had some very mild contractions and nothing consistent at all. Hopefully the baby's room will be all finished by this weekend with my mom's help. Otherwise though we have everything we really need for Baby Boy to arrive. I haven't packed a hospital bag yet nor have we figured out how to put the carseat in the car....but we still have time. Crazy to think though that it could be in 2 weeks!

That's so kind of your doctor not to let you go past the 20th. How about not going past the 6th?! That seems more exciting. :)

You look so cute. Your shirt looks like the dress that I have from Motherhood Maternity. I can't wait to see what little Posner looks like.
