How far along: 35 Weeks 1 Day (34 days to go until our DUE DATE!!! AHHH!)
Development: Baby B is around 5 1/4 lbs and over 18 inches long
Movement: Lots of movement still, mainly squirming feelings like it is changing positions alot! Hiccups have become pretty regular this week too...it is atleast once a day that I notice them but sometimes 3-4 times a day!
Weight Gain: I was up to 18.8 lbs gained on Monday!
Maternity Clothes: Everything for the most part...down to a few things that actually fit anymore! I may start having to wear yoga pants to work!!!
Stretch Marks: None and I was complimented by the midwife on Monday how pretty my tummy is! I'm glad someone thinks so...it is still weird to me! No stretch marks though!!
Best moment of my week: Doctors appt on Monday went well and baby sounded good. Looking forward to going every week now! We have the hospital bag stuff coming together and during our snow day yesterday I put baby's bag together! I can't wait!
Worst moment: Heartburn has reared its head! I was so hoping to avoid it and drinking milk has kept it at bay for a while now but it doesn't really help anymore. I am thinking I may have to start sleeping in Brians recliner!
Sleep: Still pretty unbearable! I can't get confortable and now the heartburn is really making it miserable. Only a few more weeks!!
Miss Anything: Not aching all the time...I really never realized how good I feel all the time. This pregnancy has made me very thankful!
Food Cravings: None...don't really like food right now!
Aversions: Everything...nothing sounds good at all!
Gender: Won't know until April!!!
Symptoms: Heartburn, braxton hicks/real contractions, backache, swelling, round ligament pain
Labor signs: Getting some real contractions now...usually a few a day but nothing consistant!
Belly Button: Still in for now...I am hoping we make it these next few weeks!
Rings: Off for good...until the baby comes atleast!! They were just getting too tight and I didn't want to risk having them cut off!
Moody or Happy: Happy for the most part! It feels good knowing we will be meeting baby soon! I just want to get to 37 weeks and then I will be perfectly okay with he/she coming at any time!!!
Looking Forward: Doctors appointment on Monday and my baby shower at work is on Wednesday! Brian and I are also heading down to Bass Pro Shop on Saturday and will do a little shopping at the mall while we are there!
