37 Week Belly Pics--yay! I'm Full-term Today!
Posted: 11-21-07 12:05pm

Yay! I'm full-term today!

I feel like I'm dropping some lately, but I don't see much change in the pictures from last week.

Here's 36 weeks:


Here are my 37 week belly pics:







OK, baby Tessa, you can come any day now! I am SOO done being pregnant! There's a full moon coming Nov. 24. I'd be so ready to go into labor then. Does anyone know if there's any truth to that old wives tale behind more women going into labor with a storm (we're due for rain & thunderstorms today) or a full moon?

yes I have heard that it is true. Never had any exerience with it though. I saw a midwife show on the discovery chanel and she was talking about the earths pull during a full moon and how it affects labor and even menstrual cycles.

There was a full moon about 2 weeks before my due date; I didn't deliver until 2 days before my due date. Didn't help me out!!

My sister works in L&D and she says the full moon does make a difference. They are usually insanely busy just before and during the full moon.

You look great btw

Do you have any stretch marks? I don't see any? I hated it when i got to 37 weeks because then i knew she could come any day but she didn't, that was frustrating. You look amazing btw

No, I don't have any stretch marks on my belly that I can see and I've looked carefully in the mirror. I think it's because my belly grew so slowly and I haven't gained too much weight w/ pregnancy (17 lb.). I am prone to them though. I have old ones on my boobs thanks to birth control pills inflating them so much and on my thighs from rapid weight loss/gain with an eating disorder when I was in college.

Yes, I hate feeling that I could go any time now or it could be as much as a month yet if I go overdue...Every little thing that happens, I overanalyze it Confused

I didn't remember about the full moon thing...wonder if it's true or not! I just know that the weather is supposed to be hella crappy this week out here!

Good luck and hang in there! You're almost done!
