37 weeks

How far along: 37 weeks

Baby's size: baby weighs about 6 1/3 pounds and measures a bit over 19 inches, head to heel (like a stalk of swiss chard)

What baby is up to (according to Babycenter.com):
Your baby is now considered full term, even though your due date is still three weeks away. If you go into labor now, his lungs will likely be mature enough to fully adjust to life outside the womb.

Symptoms: FREQUENT urination, difficulty sleeping

Total Weight Gain: 32 pounds

Best moment since last update: bags are packed, car seat is ready, two baby showers this weekend :), baby's clothes and blankets are washed, we made some final purchases - now we just need a baby!

Movement: yep! It seems to be quite cramped in there and I think the baby is ready to make his/her arrival!

Food cravings: fruit, milk

What I miss: sleeping at night

What I'm looking forward to: meeting our little one and finding out if it's a boy or girl :)

Update on students' votes: 19 say boy and 16 say girl
