34 weeks

34 weeks and 4 days

 

 

How far along? 34 weeks and 4 days

Total weight gain:  18 lbs

Maternity clothes?  Same stuff

Stretch marks?  Not yet, but I feel like my skin is stretched to the max.

Sleep: A little better.  I wake up once or twice, but seem to be able to fall back asleep quicker.  It is harder to get comfortable.

Best moment this week: Having Pete home.  We have missed him so much!!!  Niko adores him, which is so cute to watch.  He runs around saying “Pete! Pete!” and wants him to play. Pete said it was starting to hurt his back-I looked at him with my big belly and just rolled my eyes! :)  Also, Niko is doing so well potty training, I am so proud of him!  He makes it most days without accidents, it just gets a little tricky going out in public or when he gets too busy playing with friends.

Miss Anything?  Being able to move normally

Movement: Lots.  He jerks my whole belly around

Food cravings:  Cinnibons and fruit (finally a healthy craving)

Gender prediction: Predictions are done-it’s a boy!

Anything making you queasy or sick:  Nope

Labor Signs:  Some stronger contractions here and there.

Symptoms:  Lower back/tailbone aches, as before.  Lots of heartburn, even from drinking water. I forgot to mention this before, but have been experiencing it for a couple months.

Belly Button in or out?   Out

Wedding rings on or off? On

Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy!!!

Looking forward to:  Finishing up the nursery, we are finally making progress.  I feel like I have so much to do around the house before he gets here, but it’s hard to find the time with Niko and fatigue.
