How far along? 34 weeks
Baby Size:Varies at this point, but somewhere around 5 pounds
Total weight gain: 27 pounds
Maternity clothes? Pretty
much exclusively. Now that the weather has warmed up I have been able to bring skirts back into my wardrobe a bit.
Stretch Marks? Not yet
Sleep: 3rd trimester insomnia has hit me hard! I am lucky to get a few hours of sleep per night
Best moment this week: The midwife confirmed that the baby turned and is now head down YAY!
Miss Anything? Wearing more than the same 5 shirts over and over, and being able to be more active
Movement: Baby squirms around a lot, but no more somersaults. He/she likes to slide his/her foot along my right rib, back and forth. Feet in the ribs means head-down, though, so I'm happy!
I have really slowed down, with lots of aches and pains making any kind of activity difficult. I still try to go for short walks though.
Food cravings: Any kind of fruit that is juicy and lemonade.
Gender Prediction: We
will find out when baby arrives! Make sure you vote in the green box on the right side of
this blog.
Symptoms: Lots of aches and pains, and swelling if I do too much.
Labor Signs: I didn't realize I have been having Braxton Hicks contractions until my midwife pointed them out last week (I had one while she was examining me...apparently). I thought there was more to them!
Mood: Happy and excited. I am totally bonded with this little one already, and I love it. I'm anxious to meet him/her!
Looking forward to: Finishing our nursery. We have everything in place now except for the bedding, which should be coming next week. Then I get to show the final result to you guys. I'm also looking forward to my last day of work this coming Friday
Not much longer!! You are looking amazing, love your bump! :) Can't wait to see pictures of your little one in a few weeks lord willing!!
