39 week pregnancy update
I've enjoyed a bit of a blogging break this week as we had a flying visit home to my parent's one last time before this baby arrives. It was really nice to not have to think about blogging actually and I really enjoyed just hanging out with the family and playing with Noah. That said, I do have some posts to pop up this week, so I better get started with this one!
How far along? 39 weeks!
Total weight gain/ measurements: We only got home this afternoon, so I didn't get a chance to weigh myself this morning. I didn't take any measurements either, but I know they are up there!
Maternity clothes: Today I am wearing a much repeated outfit of late- my ripped ASOS maternity jeans, a simple H&M vest top and a burgundy jumper from Primark.
Stretch marks: No new ones!
Sleep: Still no better than last week, but I have been waking up feeling rested in the morning, so it could be a lot worse!
Miss anything? Not really
Movement: All the time!
Food cravings? Not really, but I am hungry all the time...nothing new there!
Anything making you feel queasy or sick? Not especially
Gender: Boy!
Labour signs? More Braxton Hicks contractions but nothing that has made me wonder about labour starting this week.
Symptoms: More of the same- I'm starting to feel like a broken record the way these last few updates have been so repetitive! Feeling pretty uncomfortable and sore but we are at the end now so I know it really isn't long to go.
I saw my midwife today and she suspects the baby is breech so I will be having a scan in the next couple of days to confirm that either way. It would definitely make my recent symptoms 'add up' in the way I have felt like there has been something sitting on my lungs! Once we know how the baby is lying we can start planning the birth as it may result in a c-section delivery.

Belly button in or out? Out!
Wedding rings on or off? On!
Happy/moody most of the time? Happy! Very excited too!
That's everything for this week's update. I don't know if i'll still be pregnant or not next week (how crazy is that!?) But rest assured we will let you all know how we all get on :)
I just want to take a moment to thank all my readers for their continued support. I really have appreciated the interest these pregnancy updates have had over the last months and although they will eventually come to an end, they will be replaced by my 'post-partum' updates, which, as many new mothers will know, is a whole other experience of its own! I look forward to continuing to share this journey will you :)
Love Bunty
