35 Week Update

How far along? 35 weeks! :) I now go to the doctor every week since I'm dilated. She said they wouldn't stop labor at this point if it happened, but try to keep him in for 2 + more weeks.

Size of baby: According to Baby Center he's compared to a 'honeydew melon' (whatever that is) and 5 1/4 lbs but the doctor still says he is measuring small.

Total weight gain: Today at the doctors officed I weighed 121, so I am up about 24 pounds. I don't mind if I can get back down to 100 and work the other 5-10 pounds off. 

Stretch marks? No new ones. 

Skin, Hair & Nails: My skin is so/so. My hair is long and fabulous lol, I'm going to miss the thickness and nails are healthy and strong, but I've been cutting them off. Less maintenance for when Blake gets here.

Sleep: I was up every 2 hours last night. Sleep sucks and I can't ever get comfortable.

Best moment this week: Knowing how close I am to having my baby!

Miss anything? Feeling good in my body. Soon though :)

Movement: He still pushes his butt up on my left side, which he's doing as I type this. 

Food cravings: Still craving caffiene, mainly coffee and bananas. I can't have any caffiene until after 37 weeks though.

Anything making you queasy or sick: Nope.

Gender: Baby boy. 

Labor signs: Yes.

Symptoms: I had some contractions again yesterday, and this morning I felt very mild period like cramps all around.

Belly button in or out? It's still in and I'm pretty sure it's gonna stay in.  

Belly button ring in or out? Out, but still pierced. I poke it through everyday.

Wedding rings on or off? On. No swelling thankfully. 

Can you see your toes? Not if I look directly down.

Happy or moody most of the time: Ugh I was super moody last night and this morning. I don't know if it's because I barely got any sleep or what. 

Looking forward to: Having him and feeling comfortable again!

Big ol' 35 week belly :)


When I was in Mt. Vernon, Rob's parents gave us this from his aunt Angela. An arm and hammer diaper pail!
