40"

I think I must have measured wrong last month when I posted 39.5" because I'm "only" measuring 40" now, but comparing the two pictures I look HUGE now ... even more huge than last month when I thought I was huge beyond huge. I am due 2 weeks from tomorrow, but hope that I won't have to wait that long. I can no longer fold in the middle like a normal person and that makes anything that requires sitting up straight nearly impossible. I am quite swollen, but can still see my ankle bones ... if only just. My belly button is still an innie, probably because it was so cavernous to begin with (as the Scoot claims). It doesn't look like the belly button I remember.

Today is my last day of work for this year. I've been counting down the days to pregnancy leave for weeks now. It's really hard to find a comfortable position at my desk and my back gets so tired by the end of the day. It will be really nice to just rest for a few days (hopefully) or weeks (wahhhhh) until the baby is born.



This is my most favoritest maternity shirt ever. Its so soft and comfy and still fits with room to spare. It's perfect for the cool Autumn that seems to have crept in over the last few days. I don't usually wear blue, but I make exceptions for comfort. Ironically, blue was the color in season during my pregnancy. Just recently my earthy colors started coming into season, but there's no point in buying more maternity clothes now ... as if I actually cared about my appearance at this point. After today it's sweats, t-shirts, bathrobes, and slippers for me!
