Week 35: February 16th - 22nd

How far along? 35 weeks!
Baby size: A honeydew melon. 
Maternity clothes? I've just been wearing the same thing over and over. My husband is making it a requirement that I wear my tennis shoes all the time. They help prevent my swelling. I guess I will follow his demand!

Stretch marks? Still there.
Sleep: Last week, I really started to sleep really, really well. Then last night hit and I had tons of heartburn and waking up all night. Hopefully, tonight will be a good night of the week.

Best moment this week: Taylor and I finally got all the baby stuff put together and the baby room actually looks ready to go! Oh, and I got to compare belly sizes with my friend, Bekah! I am bigger, by a little bit!

Miss Anything? My flexibility.
Movement: He has been moving  A LOT more than normal. I feel like he is trying to stretch out my belly a little further to make some more room.

Food cravings: Food, still wanting food. Though, the Funyions and Slurpee was really good yesterday!

Difficulties or changes: He sometimes pushes out really hard and makes my belly hard. It is really uncomfortable sometimes.
Belly Button In or Out: In, technically. Even though it is more just flat with the rest of my skin. 

Symptoms: Swelling, heartburn is back!
Labor Signs: None yet.

Wedding Rings on of off? Off.

Happy or moody:Happy. Who wouldn't have happy to have 4 days off with their hubby?!?

Baby project this week: I still need to pack my 'go bag.' I technically have everything ready to go into the bag, I just have to put it in the bag!
Looking Forward to: The baby shower my work friends are throwing me!

Week 34: February 9th - 15th

How far along? 34 weeks!
Baby size: Roughly over 18 inches long and probably weighs around 5 or 6 pounds. The size of a butternut squash.

Maternity clothes? I bought another pair of jeans cause my other ones are not fitting too well around my swollen knees. But everything else is still fitting ok.

Stretch marks? Same ones, maybe a little longer, but I can't really tell. 
Sleep: The last two nights I have been able to go into a deep sleep during my hour sleep sessions. But I will take an hour of deep sleep over no sleep!

Best moment this week: Express Birthing Class! It was nice to get some facts about the birth and get some mysteries answered. I feel a little more comfortable about going into labor.

Miss Anything? Bacon, everyone around me can eat it...I still cannot. :(
Movement: This little guy loves messing with me. Days I expect him to move a lot, he does not, but days like today when I am at work I expect him to sleep and he does not. He is moving like crazy right now too!

Food cravings: Food, still just food. Though, Kami's Frito chili recipe tasted really good tonight!

Difficulties or changes: Picking things up. Fortunately, mom got me one of those cool grabbers to pick things up, I just need to attach it to my hip so I always have it!
Belly Button In or Out: In...in...in!

Symptoms: Swollen Feet/Ankles...I think I scared Taylor tonight with my chunky feet.
Labor Signs: None yet...I do get some Braxton Hicks contractions when I do too much, but no labor signs.

Wedding Rings on of off? Off..

Happy or moody: Happy! I am quite nervous about bringing this little guy in the world, but very excited at the same time; especially after learning more about baby and birthing.

Baby project this week: Taylor and I will be meeting the pediatrician for our little guy. We are also going to be spending the weekend setting up/putting together the swing, bassinet and anything else that is not finished in the room.
Looking Forward to: Spending time with Taylor! We have 4 days off together. I am very excited.

Week 33: February 2nd - 8th

How far along? 33 weeks

Baby size: He is  4.2 to 5.8 pounds and about 17.8 to 18.7 inches long.

Maternity clothes? I am still wearing my maternity clothes to work, but on the weekends I find that my husbands t-shirts are a favorite to wear!

Stretch marks? Same ones as always...maybe getting a little longer.
Sleep: What is sleep? I haven't been getting much of it lately. It is really hard to move around in bed to get comfortable. Even the couch is not comfortable, which is my go-to when the bed is not cooperating.

Best moment this week: Taking the infant/child CPR class. I feel so much more comfortable with having to respond in an emergency.

Miss Anything? Sleeping on my belly, sleeping on my back, sleeping through the entire night. (But I have been told, I won't be getting that for quite awhile. 
Movement: He is a mover when his daddy talks to him about football. He was all for the Broncos, but luckily he couldn't see the outcome of the game!

Food cravings: Still just want food and caffeine.

Difficulties or changes: Fitting in my shoes. My shoe selection is getting limited.
Belly Button In or Out: Still in ... hahahahahaha!

Symptoms: Swollen ankles, sore joints in my feet, hot flashes often.
Labor Signs: None yet.

Wedding Rings on of off? Off..

Happy or moody: I have been pretty happy. I do get a little grumpy when I don't get enough sleep.

Baby project this week: We bought the baby swing. Now we just need to get the room completely organized.
Looking Forward to: My doctors appointment on the 4th to see how big he has grown in the last two weeks and the child birthing class Taylor and I will be taking this weekend.
