35 Weeks


How far along: 35 Weeks
Baby Size:  Coconut
Total weight gain/loss:  22lbs
Maternity Clothes:  I do wear maternity clothes but mostly I wear maternity shirts and a size larger in leggings. I can still wear all my normal cardigans which means all this weight i'm gaining is in my hips. That'll be fun to work off in a month =)
Stretch marks:  None that I can see
Sleep:  I do have some hip pain some nights, even with the large pillow. But other than that pretty much all through the night except for my 3am potty break.
Best moment this week:  Going to the hospital and discussing everything with the midwife. She was british and awesome. She went through everything with us, and the standard stay is 5 days. It's really nice that you stay for awhile and the midwives' make sure you know how to take care of your babies needs before you leave. You also get 3 visits with their lactation consultant and a midwife comes to your house 5 times to check both of us and make sure we're doing well.
Miss Anything:  Eh not really!
Movement:  Yes, including his hiccuping every night as I lay down to go to bed. It's really adorable =)
Food Cravings:  No, I drink a lot of milk but otherwise I don't want anything specific.
Anything making you queasy or sick:  Nope, i'm over my egg issue which is great because they have lots of iron. He was stealing all of it for awhile there.
Have you started to show yet:  Hahahahaha oh yeah!
Gender:  Cute baby boy!!
Labor Signs:  None so far
Belly Button in or out:  Oh it is definitely hanging in for dear life but I don't know if it's going to win that battle.
Wedding rings on or off:  I gave up and they're off.
Mood:  Excited and, now, after being to the hospital and talking about it so nervous.
Looking forward to:  Finishing all this kid's laundry. Holy cow we have borrowed and bought so many items of clothing and blankets it's ridiculous. Also, looking forward to Adam getting out of his nesting period. He's been re-organizing all of my re-organizing since he's been off this week. =) We'll see if he reads this part of the blog hahahaha!!
Update: As of right now our sweet baby boy is still being stubborn and in the head up position. So he has until my new appointment on the 10th to turn around before they schedule a c-section for me. Of course if he turns before the c-section I will get to do a normal birth.
