Full term as of today

I’m 37 weeks today and can pop at any moment. My functional group took me out to lunch today for a little shower (it was also for a new dad in the group too). Now I feel so stuffed I could just burst!

The past two nights I’ve had trouble sleeping. I’ve been waking up at 3am and been unable to get back to sleep. Yesterday morning I just tossed and turned for a couple of hours. This morning I got up and read until about 6am and then went back to sleep. I’ve been really lucky when it comes to sleeping. The usual (except for the past two nights) has been at least six hours of uninterrupted sleep.

I got my thyroid results back yesterday and like I thought, my dosage increased. I knew it would probably have to at some point. The dosage is based on how well your thyroid is working and your weight. Obviously I’ve gained some weight in the past 8 months and they say pregnant women need a higher dose anyway. And I’ve been feeling like I do when I forget to take my meds (usually two days later with a funky sore feeling near the thyroid).
