Swiss Chard - Three Weeks To Go!

Your baby is now considered full term, even though your due date is still three weeks away. If you go into labor now, her lungs will likely be mature enough to fully adjust to life outside the womb. She weighs 6 1/3 pounds and measures a bit over 19 inches, head to heel (like a stalk of Swiss chard). Many babies have a full head of hair at birth, with locks from 1/2 inch to 1 1/2 inches long.
How far along? 37 Weeks!!
Total weight gain: I'm thinking 35 - 40. The problem is that I don't know what I weighed when we started this journey. I do know that I'm one pound away from delivery weight with Austin. 
Sleep: Sleeping isn't the problem, however, rolling over and trying to get out of bed is a chore!
Best moment this week: Meeting JP's Big Cousin, Breck David on 11/19!
Movement: She's definitely slowing down but she's not letting anyone forget she's in there!
Food cravings: Still Yoo-hoos...
Name: I give up! JP is a good name, right?
Labor Signs: Maybe a few braxton hicks here and there
Dilated: "Definitely a 1" The doctor's exact words were, "anything can happen, but I'd plan on being back next week."
Belly Button in or out? In but stretched to the max.
What I miss: Non-restless legs. Sometimes I just want to cut them off so I can get to sleep!
What I am looking forward to: Sprinkle!! We are blessed with the best family and friends!
Next Appointment: 38 weeks appointment on 11/29
