Visible
changes in my body: I
think my bump is more rounder and maybe slightly lower
Other:
Still going 2-3 times
a night to the toilet. As
you may recall from my last week's post we are in a kind of a limbo
at the moment as our landlord didn't agree yet to us moving out, and
we are desperately in need of our own place as we were forced to take
refuge at my husband's parents house, which is not ideal for me at
all. We wanted to vacate property on Friday, but it's now been a week
and a half since the incident and them being informed about the
situation. This situation stresses me out a lot, I cry almost every
day and I'm worried about baby as well,-when she will arrive, how she
will arrive and where we will be staying. Baby is active, especially during the evening, from time checking heartbeat with doppler. My
sweep is booked for this Saturday, will see if it helps to fast
forward labour.
How
do I feel: Apart from stress, feel good (touch wood). If out and
about feeling tired quicker.
Cravings:
still none.
Fitness:
stopped any fitness routine due to no treadmill available and not
sure that it's a good time to carry on swimming in a public pool
Baby: At 40
weeks baby
is getting a little heavier and may grow a bit more in length. The
average baby is about 51cm long from head to toe and weighs about
3.4kg at birth. Baby continues to shed the greasy, white substance
(vernix caseosa) which has been protecting her skin. If she shows no
sign of making an appearance after another week, she may have
slightly dry
skin when
she arrives.
She has mastered all the skills she'll need after she's born. She can instinctively search for her thumb and suck it, just as she will search for your breast for a feed soon after birth.

ReplyDeleteThis is the part of pregnancy that I didnt experience as I gave birth early (I have to be induced as my water broke). So its always nice to read this. Its going to be soon so rest as much as you can as you will need all the energy =) #MMWBH
ReplyDeleteBless your heart I know when I hit 35 weeks I was so ready to deliver. I was bouncing on a yoga ball at 37 weeks all day everyday and going on walks all the time. Good luck hun!!
ReplyDeleteI always went over due. I hope baby comes soon for you and a massive good luck with the birth. I also hope then stress an situation is resolved quickly x big hugs x #sharewithme
ReplyDeleteExciting times! Hope everything goes well for you :) #BabbyBabble
ReplyDeleteI never went that far in either pregnancy, but hopefully your little one will make an appearance soon. Sorry that your living situation is still in limbo but hopefully the landlord will see sense and then you can find a new place soon.
ReplyDeleteHope you're feeling less stressed soon, it must be so worrying for you with everything going on so close to your due date, but I'm sure it'll all work out in the end x

I never got any cravings either, funny how some do and some don't. Good luck with the sweep and fingers crossed you'll have your baby with you soon x #BabyBabble
ReplyDeleteI hope you get a solution to the living situation very soon - must be stressful for you to be up in the air like that. But as others say here, it will all be sorted out soon enough and you need to focus on staying calm and getting enough rest to prepare for the labour. Thank you for linking up to the #BlogBumpClub again! x
ReplyDeleteBoth of mine were past their due date by the time they made an appearance, it can be a physically tough time, these last few days (and it really is only days now) so take care of yourself and try to find some rest in among all the crazy!
ReplyDeleteeeeeeeeeek, not long now. :) I hope you're not waiting too much longer. Good luck! x #babybabble
ReplyDeleteI've had both my babies earlier (37 weeks and 39 weeks) but I can imagine how excited you must feel knowing baby will be here any day. Looking forward to seeing a baby update soon!and try not to get too stressed about the house, I know it is easier said than done though! #bloggerbumpclub
ReplyDeleteOh nooo I hope the landlord thing sorts itself soon. I'm not surprised it's stressing you out. So not what you need right now. At least you'll have some good news in the next few days when bubba arrives hey?
