37 weeks.

How far along?: 37 weeks, 0 days
Total weight gain/loss: Enough.
Sleep: Baby-wise? Great. Toddler-wise? Not-so-much. Joe has been making getting decent sleep nearly impossible. I have a call into the pediatrician for advice because I'm terrified that this baby is going to show up in 4 weeks and I'm gonna be up all night with Joe instead of the baby!
Movement: Still constant and getting pretty painful at times. I do a lot of wincing these days.
Labor Signs: An incredible amount of pressure, which would typically indicate that the baby is dropping, but not in my case. My babies are just so big that they cause a lot of pressure even before they drop.
Food cravings: Lots of cereal and donuts this week.
Gender: I still think boy.
New w/pregnancy #3: With only 3-4 weeks to go, we still don't really have things ready. The husband and I told ourselves we would wait for April, so I guess maybe we'll start doing it this week...
What I miss: I already miss peanut butter and I still get to have it for 3-4 more weeks.
What I am looking forward to: April 20th.
Best moment this week: The fabulous ladies in my family surprised me with a little baby "sprinkle" this weekend! Baby Rocket & I were spoiled with new little outfits and baby essentials. It was such a sweet surprise, and it was even sweeter to have Brooke there with me. She got to share in some of the baby excitement & was so, so excited about it!
Milestones: 37 weeks used to be considered full-term. Within recent months, they've actually pushed this back to 39 weeks (I think too many people were doing elective inductions between 37-39 weeks, when babies could really use those extra few weeks.) But I like to be old-school, so I'm going to say we've made it to full-term!
