Only 5 weeks to go. Technically the baby is full term at 37 weeks so really I only have 2 more weeks to go and then she can come any time. I'm not sure what to wish for.
Here I am at 35 weeks. 
Do I look tired? Well I am. Someone has run out of room and since she is still very active in the middle of the night she has begun kicking my ribs between 1 and 3 am.

Here is the baby at 35 weeks.
Ben was worried that she only had four toes. Fear not. The object in the middle of the image is actually a hand and though it is a pretty bad picture, rest assured she does have five fingers. Right now she is head down, way down. The technician had to press hard against my pelvic bone to get a clear picture of the head to measure it. I won't know the results until I see my doctor again next Friday. The technician did say that she looked good, but couldn't tell me anything about her growth and size. Personally I think she is just efficiently packed in there and they better not push back my due date. That is not what I want for Christmas this year.

I don't want her date moved back either! I hope they didn't make you drink a lot before the ultrasound. I'm working hard to get things done in time for when I come out to help you ;~)
You look very uncomfortable. That last trimester for me was really hard. I can't believe she will be here next month.
At that stage measuring "small" is hard to consider possible. There is NOTHING small about the way your stomach feels. I hope all goes well for you. You are in our prayers.
