week 35

Today is May 20th.  We are due June 20th.  Holy Cow!

About the baby? 5 1/4lb and about 18inches long.  Most of the physical development is complete, so now he'll just work on putting on the LB's.  CRAZY that next week, I'll be full-term!

Maternity Clothes? Re-wearing the ones I have, but still a mix of regular clothes too.  Basically... whatever I can fit into that I haven't already worn that week.

 

Stretch Marks? checking, and double checking... still nothing :)

Gender? boy

 

Movement?   Yes, but less of it and in different spots.  I feel a lot of pressure down below, so I know he's dropped a little bit.

Sleep? I had a few days this week where I was struggling with the fact that I might have to deal without sleep for the next.... ummm.... few months.  I couldn't get comfortable.  I think Kaden was laying on something that made it so that every position I tried was miserably uncomfortable.  Thankfully that passed after 2 nights and I'm back to my semi-comfortable sleep, with 4+ bathroom breaks. :)

Food Cravings? no... haven't had a "pregnancy craving" in 35 weeks and I don't think that'll change

What I Miss?  cuddling with my husband... this big ol' basketball belly is getting in the way!  walking quickly (if you know me, this has been a big change)

Symptoms? waddling (yikes!!), swelling, still snoring, contractions, "lightning" type pain

Best Moment This Week? 
1. celebrating Mother's Day

2. our school shower

Looking Forward To? our appointment next Wednesday... I'm crossing my fingers that he'll let us see Kaden.
