34 Weeks

34 Weeks!

Seriously?  We're getting close to a month away?!

How far along are you? 

34 Weeks

Total weight gain: 

I'm not loving it, but I was glad to know my bff who is 4 weeks ahead of me (and smaller than me, plus a far more healthy eater) is about the same amount of weight gain.  I haven't strictly watched my eating, but dang.  I think it's a genetic thing for those of you who don't gain more than 25-30 pounds

How big is baby?:

What to Expect says a Large Cantaloupe! 19-22" 5.5 pounds  HOLY MOLY

Maternity clothes: 

always...the closer it gets to my due date the less I want to spend any more money on anything new

Stretch marks?:  

So far, only on my hiney

I've been applying Palmers Cocoa Butter religiously...hoping that helps matters

Sleep?: 

Since going to 3rd shift, you would think my sleep has gotten bad...but nope, better!  I'm sleeping well during the day!

Best moment this week?:

Dr appointment Tuesday!  Pierce was once again unhappy to have the nurse dare bother him to listen to his heart.  He ran from the Doppler again!  

Movement?: 

Starting to get less, but much more strong

Food cravings?:

ice...love ice

Food aversions?:

Not too bad, kind of depends on the day, 

Labor signs?: 

NO!  Just Braxton-Hicks 

Some of them are starting to get painful like cramps.  Nothing consistent or regular.

Belly button in or out?: 

Still in, but barely!  Which is nuts, my belly button pre-pregnancy is seriously VERY deep

What I miss: 

Not being exhausted

my face shape

my body! 

Lol, this list could go on and on at this point

What I'm looking forward to: 

Meeting this little guy...in 5 weeks

What I'm not looking forward to: 

Delivery!  OMG, scared!

Milestone: 

Pierce's STRONG movement and punches!

He kicks me if I fold my arms and rest them on the top of my belly, he does not like anything encroaching on his space!
