Germany won the football world cup today!!! :)))
This week I have finished the 39th week of pregnancy which basically means I am 40 weeks pregnant and on full term! In the beginning of my pregnancy I could´t think of getting to this stage and I must admit that I thought my little baby would arrive earlier than due date. However, everything seems to turn out fine in the end, she is healthy as far as my doctors can tell and that is the main thing!
And as it is my due date today on a Sunday I have to go to the hospital for a screening. And if the baby is not coming until next weekend, or if I should feel extremely uncomfortable, I am going to be induced, that´s the regulation here in Germany.
As a treat for 40 weeks of pregnancy I have done some kind of a wellness morning today. I had a face peeling, a chamomile steam bath, a face mask, a hair mask, I took a long refreshing shower and shaved, peeled, oiled and afterwards moisturized my body... I feel wonderful now! :)
This week I visited Ivonne and Marli who is over a month old already now. And Annika and Finja came to visit me at home, Finja is one day younger than Marli. I am so looking forward to hold my own baby in my arms soon!! Sometimes I feel like kind of jealous.. not really, but I want to have my baby as well, you know! And patience is none of my strengths ;)
Apart from that I spent most of the time at home, as I didn´t feel very well, like easily exhausted and had those pains in my symphyses which was so uncomfortable :( in addition to that my feet were swollen so quickly that I needed to put them up often and also bath hands and feet in chestnut cream oil for a relief. I can really recommend it, bathing feet in the evening for 10mins and then put up the legs over night!
...then this is what my feet look like in the morning. They still look like rubber boats and I do not have any ankles, but it is much better than the evening before!!
The chestnut bath is from the natural cosmetic brand Weleda and can be ordered via the pharmacy.
So now here comes the picture of my belly in full term! :)
How far along? I´ve finished the 39th week today! I am now full term and I cannot believe that my pregnancy will be over in a few days.

Maternity clothes? Still prefer large leggings & tops or dresses, but also use some maternity tops.
Stretch marks? Not until now!
Fitness: Only my yoga and aquarobic classes, as I didn´t feel sure enough for any further walks or swimming. I kind of felt I would not manage. What was nice though was that 2 girls from yoga joined me at the aquarobic course :)
