Final pregnancy updates!

Remember when I filled out a little questionnaire back when I was 19 weeks pregnant? Well, I thought it'd be neat to do again now that I'll be having the baby sometime in the next two weeks! Some questions are the same and some are different than last time. We're getting more and more excited as the days go on!

How old are you: 21
When are you due: March 28th, 2013
How far along are you: 38 weeks!
How much weight have you gained: 25 lbs
Are you showing yet: like a whale!
Was this planned or unplanned: Unplanned for me, planned for daddy! Haha
Belly button in or out: Out out out!
Happy or moody: Happy but always exhausted.
Is this your first pregnancy: Nope
How old are your other children: Lillian is 20 months old.
What is the gender of baby: A GIRL!!! :D
You pee an estimated__times a day: Ten, maybe more. With constant contractions I always feel like I have to pee!
Latest food craving: The chocolatiest of all chocolate shakes!
Who do you think the baby will look like: After our last ultrasound, I compared Lilly's ultrasound pictures to this baby's and they looked different! This one has a pointier nose, so I'm hoping she looks like me :) Lilly looks just like her daddy so it'd be fun to have a mini Shelby too!
Favorite thing about being pregnant at this point: The look of my round tummy in shirts and dresses.
Least favorite thing at this point: Ooh, there's a few! Constant fatigue, even my pregnancy pants are too tight, all the extra weight and fat I'm carrying makes me feel unattractive, my back, hips, pelvis and legs always hurt, she kicks right above my belly button and it killlllls, I get super itchy when I try to sleep because of the swelling from water retension... the list goes on! Haha.
One thing you've missed since being pregnant: Being able to jump and dance and run - basically being active and being able to move like a normal human being.
Any stretch marks: All the ones from my first pregnancy (which is like a gazillion) but only two new ones from this time around (thank goodness!) One above my belly button and one on my right calf.
Is the nursery complete: No, we need to paint her crib and get a changing pad, but other than that, yes!
Is there a theme: Yes, she and Lilly are sharing a room. The colors are silky lavender, black and white floral patterns and silver highlights. It's gorgeous, if I do say so myself!
Medicated birth or natural: If all goes to plan, I'll be induced and have a reeeeeaal nice epidural waiting for my beckoning call! :)
