Dress: c/o eShakti - Necklace: c/o Belle Bijoux - Watch: Michael Kors - Shoes: Victorias Secret (want these) 

Can we just take a minute and talk about this amazing dress?? When eShakti came to me and asked me to customize my dress I was SO excited! I have the hardest time finding dresses that are long enough for me! I was able to pick the sleeve length, neckline, dress length, etc. It is perfect for me! I had it made to fit my non pregnant body but the material is stretchy so it still works while I am pregnant! Not to mention it is an extremely soft and comfortable material!

Due Date: October 1st

Weight Gain: 20 lbs 

Belly Button: Completely out, it is now pretty much flat! Ha ha

Best Moment This Week: Hitting full term, and hearing the doctor say "if you go into labor I won't stop it!" YAY!

Sleep: I still sleep amazing! I get up about 3 times to go to the bathroom but have no problem falling back to sleep. When I wake up my hips hurt from sleeping on my side but other than that I sleep so good and have my whole pregnancy. I have noticed that I am more tired, which is obviously normal!

Stretch Marks: Everything is clear except my side of my but/thighs, I have a few but they are staying SUPER light with my amazing Bio Oil. Seriously it is a life saver, I notice them because It is my body but they are so light you can't even tell. I have lucked out so far! 

*I was once told when I got a massage that, that is actually the best way to prevent stretch marks. It isn't always about the cream you put on, but they said to massage my skin! I thought that was 

Looking Forward To:  Meeting our sweet baby!

Movement: Baby boy is SO active and I love it!

Labor Signs: I have had a little bit more cramping lately (like period cramps), and a lot of braxton hicks!

Nursery:  It is finally all done! We added the last final touch this week (the book shelf) and now it is done! :) I will do a post on the nursery next week!

Hospital Bag/Diaper Bag:  Packed and ready to go! My good friend was due 3 weeks before me and ended up having her baby 4 weeks early. She and her husband both said they were so glad she was prepared, after hearing that I went home and packed my stuff! I will also do a post on what is is my bags.

I hope you are all having an amazing week! I can't believe it is half way done. :)
