34 weeks!


How far along?  34 weeks 3 days!
Total weight gain/loss:  27-28lbs. YIKES! I think part of it is from water retention now (my feet r swelling like crazy!) and losing motivation to keep the weight gain minimal. so close to the end but still so far! will still try to keep it at ~30 ish i hopeee!
Symptoms:  swelling has returned! this time its happening in both feet. luckily my hands have been okay so far so my rings are still fitting fine. and i don't *think* my face is swelling, but who knows. haha. Also been cramping alot this past weekend. felt like menstrual cramps + stomachache cramps but no diarrhea. so.. not sure what that was. its gone now. it helped that i laid on the side that wasn't hurting so maybe the baby was in a bad position? still waddling too but thats normal now.
Sleep:  still good unless the hubs wakes up. man i don't think i'll understand how much i'll be sleep deprived after the baby comes. right now i sleep about 8-9 hours a night.. i think i'm in for a big surprise after baby.
Best moment this week:  baby shower! it was a lot of fun and it was exciting sharing it with our friends. I'll post some photos when i get them from my sister (hi alice!!)
Movement:  baby has been alittle quieter these days, it might be because i've been more active. still counting movement just in case its too low. i have a feeling the baby is wedged in a weird position. for one, my bump is really weirdly shaped. second, i only feel the baby near my pelvis and on my right side, like way to the right, almost to the side of my stomach. i'm hoping the baby is not breech! i will find out next week though.
Cravings:  i had 2 chick fil a sandwiches last week ( so good!), wanted something pumpkin-y  so i made pumpkin muffins!
Anything making you queasy or sick:  nothing really
Labor Signs:  nope don't think so..
Belly Button in or out?  pretty flat, but still innie
What I miss:  being more flexible. so much harder to do stuff on the ground like put stuff together with a big belly in the way. can't wait to wear regular clothes!
What I am looking forward to:  baby in hopefully less than 6 weeks! gonna find out more about the babys growth and position at my appointment on monday, excited for that! and looking forward to halloween bc of the candy! i got some good candy this year and hope there are some leftovers... :-D
