I went to the Doctor on Monday and she told me I was measuring at 35 weeks, a week ahead... so needless to say I am actually blogging for the start of my 35th week!!
This picture is of me, at work this morning. 35 weeks and 2 days. Jordan and I also got some super cute pics of our baby boy!!! This pic is of his mouth and nose. I apologize that it is upside down.
How far along? 35 weeks and 2 days
Total weight gain: Yuck, officially (at the dr) I weigh 145. I have gained 25lbs. and apparently need to slow down. :( I am really worried that I won't be able to get all the weight off and that I will be a fatty for the rest of my life! Max weighs 5lbs. 11oz. ~ he is a big baby already!!!!
Stretch marks? No, but now that I have gained "so much weight" I feel like they are not that far away :(
Sleep: I still can't sleep
Best moment this week: Seeing my boy's sweet, sweet face on the ultrasound!!! I can't believe he is almost here and I just know he will be the cutest little boy ever! We start going to the doctor every week now!!! SO exciting!
Miss Anything? This is definitely a different feeling than from last week, but, I miss sleep, my body, peeing without being uncomfortable (I know, TMI) my feet not being swollen.... the list goes on. Just a few more weeks and I will have some of these things back.
Movement: Still moves like a maniac, but since he is head down, the movement is starting to hurt!!!
Food cravings: I don't even want to think about food anymore. I have no room for it.
Anything making you queasy or sick: nothing recently.
Gender: Boy
Labor Signs: I have been having contractions about every 20 minutes, a couple nights a week.
Symptoms: SWOLLEN FEET, I don't think people understand how horrible this symptom is... my feet are hot, tight and they hurt to walk on. Being in Hollister and walking around is seriously painful!!!!SOOOO PAINFUL!!!!
Belly Button in or out? OUT! FOR GOOD!
Wedding rings on or off? on
Happy or Moody most of the time: HAPPY!!!!
Looking forward to: APPOINTMENTS EVERY WEEK!!!! EVERYTHING is getting so close!!! I am so excited!!!! :) I am going to have a baby!!!
Ok readers, I have a question.... hopefully enough people read my blog in order to answer my questions
1. Does anyone recommend "stripping your membranes"?
2. At what point do you think I should stop working? My feet are in so much pain, and I am not just being a baby about it. I do not plan on being "induced" but I am considering getting my membranes stripped in order to start labor within a couple of days. Should I just stop working then or should I work all the way up until my due date? (Mind you, I work in a store where I walk around constantly.)
You look gorgeous, and you are seriously doing awesome on your weight gain! I know it's hard to watch the scale keep getting higher and higher, but you look great! :) And I feel ya on the swollen feet. Ugh. Mine have been hurting for a few weeks now!
