How far along? 35
weeks
Total Weight Gain: This past week +2 lb, Total +21 lbs.
Maternity Clothes: I
have a pair of jeans that are fitting kind of tight and have a couple of shirts
that don’t like to stay all the way down, but most of my stuff is still fitting
great.
Continuing Symptoms: Lots
of movement, I’m generally just feeling good, feel my muscles stretching, occasional
back, sciatic, or hip pain, restless legs, Braxton hicks, increased bathroom
trips, things are getting slightly more difficult to do, and I get tired and/or
achy a lot easier.
New Symptoms: I
have been more tired and have occasional nausea very similar to first trimester
nausea. Sometimes I have trouble getting
a deep breath and get out of breath a lot more easily. The restless legs seem to be a nightly thing
lately. However, they only bother me in
the evening while watching TV shows.
They don’t bother me while going to sleep.
Sleep: I’m
still having once a night bathroom trips, but I’m sleeping well (most nights) and
falling asleep quickly after I get up at night.
Cravings: I
keep wanting to eat cereal.
Stretch Marks: Not
yet…
Special Moments: I
bought a bunch of stuff to get ready for the baby on Monday. I started setting up some stuff (diaper
stuff, etc) and started a pile of stuff to take to the hospital and a pile of
stuff that needs to be washed before baby arrives (baby clothes, sheets, etc).
Miss anything? Being
able to bend forward to easily reach or pick stuff up, and being able to
effortlessly hop up off the couch or out of bed.
Belly Button in or out? Same…
my belly button is still in, but it’s also out…
It’s in, but you wouldn’t necessarily know that looking through a shirt
or something, because the skin kind of sticks out.
Wedding rings on or
off? On.
Looking forward to: This
weekend one of our friends here is throwing us a little shower; I’m looking
forward to that. Also, the day after
that shower Carlos and I are going shopping for some more baby stuff!
Sounds wonderful! It good to see that most the pregnancy has been pleasant, it sounds like a "good" pregnancy. It all passes by so fast, in the beginning it seems sooo slow, but before you know it, you have a sweet little baby. I'll get with you later, I want to hear about your shower and shopping :)
