Weeks 35, 36, & 37

Once again, I'm behind.  Here's a short recap of the past three weeks...nothing much to report, other than my belly growing and growing and growing.

So far at my doctor's appointments, my measurements have been spot on.  Here's how it's supposed to work:  the number of weeks pregnant you are should equal (plus or minus 2 cm) the measurement of my tummy.  Each week my measurement had equaled my week.  Well, that was up until my last appointment.  I was 34 1/2 weeks and measured 36 cm.  Wuh woh.  Now, we all know that Mike and I are not small people.  Me being around 5'10 and him at 6'3.  It's assumed our child will probably be a bit on the longer side.  But whoa.  I'm scared.  The doctor didn't seem too worried, as long as it wasn't over 37 cm, it's nothing to worry about.  But just the fact that my measurements had exactly equaled the pregnancy week I was in up until that point, and then it suddenly jumped up scares me a bit.

I'm definitely uncomfortable this week.  A good night's sleep is definitely a luxury.  I just can't seem to get comfortable anymore and it doesn't help that I'm always hot.  Ugh.
