34 Weeks!


How far along: 34 Weeks
Baby size: 19-22 inches long, 4.9 lbs (about the size of a pineapple)
Maternity clothes: Actually I am wearing a lot of non maternity clothes. I mean I am obviously wearing maternity jeans but a lot of my pre-pregnancy stuff that is stretchy is actually quite comfortable. Like my leggings, I use to hate them cause they felt like they cut into my belly and cut off my circulation, but since my belly is not so squishy anymore I can wear them right under it and it is perfect.
Stretch marks: Not yet, please lets just make it a few more weeks belly, you have been doing so good!
Sleep: It is much better in my bed at home. I really miss my ability to roll over though. I feel like these days if I wake up it is a lot harder to fall back asleep because all the sudden I will notice how uncomfortable my body is.
Gender: A sweet little girl!
Best moment this week: Learning I have nice ankles from the doctor. Just kidding. The best moment this week will be when Daniel gets home tonight and joins his girls and we will officially be in our apartment for good.
Looking forward to: Daniel setting up the crib. The baby room is really looking like someone could come and call it home soon! I look forward to continuing to put it all together.
What I miss: Bending over. I am in the phase where I have to squat to the floor to pick stuff up and it is just a lot harder, especially when my balance is off anyways.
Movement: She is still about the same. Some days are really active with lots of hard kicks and punches, other days are more quiet. If I am busier she is usually not as active, or I just don't notice. She waits until I am laying down to rest to get all riled up. I love feeling her move still. It is one of the best parts of pregnancy for sure!
Food cravings: Green apples with this cream cheese dip I made. It was so so yummy. Fruit is good. Chocolate chip cookies.
Aversions: Fried pasta. The last two times I had it was just not delicious and I felt really crappy after.
Nursery: It is coming together. Right now we have the dresser, chair, and rock n' play set up. The crib is in a box leaning against the wall waiting for Daniel to come home and set it up.
Overall: I am just really excited to finally nest!
Miscellaneous: I don't know if this is normal but sometimes it just does not seem real that I am pregnant and that a little girl will be in our house in less than two months! And she will be totally dependent on Daniel and me! Honestly sometimes it is really overwhelming to think about. Then other times I am really excited. But I don't know if it will seem real until she is in our arms.
 33 plus weeks. Whoa where did that belly come from!
The nursery, a little messy but a work in progress.
