34 Weeks

How far along? 34 Weeks

Total weight gain:  28lbs

Maternity clothes? sometimes i try to wear non maternity things and it lasts about 5 minutes.

Stretch marks? nope. i scratched my belly a few days ago and when I got a glimpse of the purple marks my scratching left I freaked out thinking they were stretch marks! 

Sleep: not much deep sleep. every little noise seems to make me wake up-which is not like me at all! 

Best moment this week: we had our childbirth class yesterday. It was a long day, but it was fun being with a bunch of people going through the same thing as we are, and it made me grateful to have Eric- I know he'll be able to help me get through labor!

Miss Anything? nope not really! I am looking forward to getting back in shape though!

Movement? yeah there's no ignoring it when he's dancing around in there! & hiccups every few days.

Food cravings: ice :) i heard that it could be a sign of iron deficiency but my doc says I'm all good! 

Anything making you queasy or sick: nope

Gender: boy

Labor Signs: I've had the occasional "practice" contraction, or braxton hicks whatever you want to call them, but it's only happened maybe three times which is normal at this point. It's usually when I've been doing lots of walking. 

Symptoms: not feeling too horrible the last few days. I started taking OTC Zantac for my heartburn and it's helped a little. Still uncomfortable/heavy feeling a lot but I think i'm just getting used to it. My hips haven't been as bad the last week though!

Belly Button in or out? out

Wedding rings on or off? I can wear both in the morning but by the end of the day they are basically stuck on  

Happy or Moody most of the time: very happy! but much more emotional than I normally am.

Baby Gear:  we have just about everything that we need and then some! we have been slacking getting the finishing touches done on the nursery though.
