How far along: 34 weeks, 2 days
Maternity clothes: Dresses and yoga pants. I now have officially grabbed some of Mike’s shorts to wear too. Thank goodness for husbands. 🙂
Stretch marks: Luckily no, but I am VERY shocked I don’t have them yet because it feels like my stomach is a huge balloon about to pop!
Sleep: Not too great. I have to sleep sitting up or on my left side. Little girl likes to sleep on my left side so then its a little uncomfortable. I wished I would have invested in a body pillow or one of those pregnancy pillows. (I was too much of a cheap skate!)
Best moment this week: Going to my doctor’s appointment and they snuck me into the ultrasound room to confirm she was head down (we were questioning it). The doctor was playing with the machine and I got to see little girl’s face (with HAIR!) and she was punching me like a boxer in all her fury. She is a feisty one!! She has gotten so big!
Also my mother in law and sister-in-law threw me a baby shower for all of my friends and family in Las Cruces. Some family came in from Tucson too, which I thought was very sweet. It was fun to sit and chat with the girls and hear stories. Little girl got so many cute clothes….she is going to be a fashion diva!
Miss anything: Being comfortable. Walking normal. Not having cankles. Sleep. Running and biking. Donuts. Cupcakes. REAL milkshakes. The usual…
Morning sickness: A little bit this week. Just queasiness.
Movement: A LOT! She likes to move and kick. Her butt is right at the top of my stomach so she likes to stick her butt out (and she has a BIG one)! It’s our form of entertainment.
Food cravings: Sweets. Doesn’t surprise me considering that is my normal craving when I am NOT pregnant. If I didn’t like sweets, I would weigh 115 pounds…
Anything making you queasy or sick: Eggs and Chicken
Have you started to show yet: Yes, I am starting to freak out about the fact that I am almost 50 pounds heavier than my normal weight. That is the only concern right now because even the midwives are yelling at me about it.
Gender prediction: Girl. A very feisty one too.
Labor signs: No. She hasn’t dropped yet.. I can’t believe I COULD go six more weeks.
Belly button in or out: Out. It happened. And it’s gross. 🙂
Wedding rings on or off: Off.
Happy or Moody most of the time: Moody and anxious and crazy. Even I am annoyed with the insanity of my hormones. I’ve cried, laughed, yelled, and every other emotion this week. I can’t wait to be normal! (Is there such a thing? Hehe.)
Looking forward to: SPRING BREAK! Holla!
