Yesterday I officially hit 36 weeks which is 9 months! I am SO thrilled about this! This pregnancy does not seem like it has gone by that fast. At first it seemed to go by kind of fast but now that I am getting closer to having Bear the time seems to be going sloooooow. Maybe it's because I am so exited :]
This week it feels and looks like Bear dropped! I woke up one morning and looked in the mirror and thought WOW it really looks like he dropped! I also feel like like he is a lot lower and weighs a lot more. I am having to pee about two times as much now a days. I also am having problems sleeping, it seems like no matter what I do, my legs, hips, or back end up hurting. I can not wait for this pregnancy to be over. While I absolutely love having my sweet baby in my womb I really want him to come out now and I am officially OVER being pregnant lol.
36 Week Update (from babycenter.com)
"Your baby is gaining about an ounce a day. She now weighs almost 6 pounds (like a crenshaw melon)
and is more than 18 1/2 inches long. She's shedding most of the downy
hair that covered her body, as well as the vernix caseosa, the waxy
substance that protected her skin during her nine-month amniotic bath.
Next week, your baby will be considered full-term. Most likely she's in a
head-down position,
but if she isn't, your practitioner may suggest scheduling an external
cephalic version, where she'll try to turn your baby by manipulating her
from the outside of your belly."

You look so great! Hope the remainer of your pregnancy is quiet and calm!
