I know I skipped week 37, but you didn't miss anything I promise. I will include a 37 week pic at the end for you though.
How far along: 38 weeks exactly! I'm considered full term and baby could come any second!
Total weight gain: 26.8 pounds. I've gone from 130 up to 156.8. It's not a bad weight gain by any means but seeing almost 160 on the scale would scare anybody who is normally in the high 120s and low 130s.
Maternity clothes: Nope, I've been so lucky to not had to spend a bunch of money on new clothes. I've been wearing my belly band and that's working great. I'm to the point now though, I'm just so uncomfortable that comfy clothes are pretty much it for the next two weeks-except when I have to go out in public.
Stretch marks: I have a few very light ones on my boobs, but absolutely zero on my belly. Praying it stays that way.
Sleep: Ha! Don't make me cry. Sleep is horrific. I can't get comfortable, my bed is super low and I mean on the ground low, my feet throb all night-I'm just ready to be done.
Miss anything: At this point-everything! I miss being comfortable, fitting into my clothes normally, being able to breath, walk without waddling, sleep, being able to get up, and so much more!
Food cravings: nectarines and watermelon.
Gender: Girl.
Labor signs: my Braxton hicks have been getting stronger. My stomach gets really tight and hard and sometimes even hurts for awhile.
Belly button in or out: it's a complete outtie. You can even see it through my shirt now.
Wedding rings on or off? On, but can be tight in the morning.
Happy or Moody? Always happy mostly exhausted and uncomfortable.
Looking forward to? Baby girls arrival! Hoping she will be here before my next weekly bump update.
Countdown: 14 days or less!

In other great news, I tested negative for group b strep. That means I do not have to rush to the hospital as soon as labor starts or my water breaks. It was really important to me to labor at home for as long as possible.
The below picture is my 37 week picture. Was really tired that day as you can probably tell by my face.
