Had another fun picture session with Chris today! I&#8217;m thinking it could be my last pregnancy photo depending on when the little guy decides to go into action. Otherwise, I may squeeze in another one at 38.5 or 39 weeks! Gotta capture these moments; it&#8217;s not every day that you&#8217;re pregnant! I&#8217;m totally going to miss my bump but will probably love a flat stomach again, too.

It&#8217;s really fun and kind of addicting &#8212; not sure if this is a good or bad thing (lol). Anyways, would love for you to join me on Instagram if you haven&#8217;t already <a href=\"http:\/\/instagram.com\/charleneprecious\" target=\"_blank\">@charleneprecious<\/a>. :)<\/p>\n<p>My legs are MUCH better than they were a week and a half ago. I can walk my normal pace again albeit still with a waddle :). Lying down is still uncomfortable and is when I feel the pain in my pelvis and groins the most but nothing unmanageable. Sleeping overall is on point other than needing to wake up every 2 hours to empty my bladder &#8212; it makes for a very choppy sleep but I have no trouble actually sleeping, which is really nice.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s all for today! xo<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":null,"protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[17,32],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v20.2.1 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Hello, 37.5 weeks! - Charlene Precious Co.<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"http:\/\/www.charleneprecious.com\/blog\/37-5-weeks\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Hello, 37.5 weeks! - Charlene Precious Co.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Had another fun picture session with Chris today!
