35 Weeks

How far along? I am 35 weeks

Total Weight Gain? I was 124 when I started and now I am at 138 although I do not have a scale so I am going off of my last weight measurement at the docs office. I have an appointment next week so I will update you then.

Maternity Clothes? I have not bought any maternity clothing, I often wear stretchy regular not maternity Old Navy jean skirts and layered stretchy tanks and hoodies... hoodies because it is still rather chilly here at times. For church again I wear my jean skirts , Old Navy foldover skirts , or a maxi dress with an empire waist.

Stretch Marks? No not yet, but I am sure in these last few weeks a few will show up..... after all you can only stretch so far.

Sleep? This subject is touchy, some nights I sleep like a rock, but more often I have quite a bit of hip pain so I have a hard time getting to sleep. I welcome the hip pain hoping that it means my body is just getting ready to birth this baby more easily.

Best Moment This Week? We set up the crib!! My husband picked it out all by himself . We should be getting the crib bedding set next Wednesday so at that time I will post pics.

Miss Anything? I miss being able to bend over easily, I am really not that big so I can still bend over but when I do bend over my sweet little Gage compresses my lungs resulting in shortness of breath.

Movement? I literally got scared yesterday. He was kicking so hard you could see a limb protruding, the scary part was he kept doing it over and over rapidly.... I felt like he was going to bust out. Then afterward I laughed at how scared it made me.

Food Cravings? Red, Green and Yellow Bell Peppers the taste but mostly the smell of them..... and Oranges

Anything Making you Queasy or Sick? No

Gender? Still a boy, we may get another ultrasound before he makes his appearance and at that point I will ask again.

Symptoms? Just the hip pain, I have been pretty blessed this pregnancy and have not had any major problems or discomfort.

Belly Button In or Out? Flat.... just flat, my husband Bright Eyes feels it and says " That is so Weird and Smooth!"

Wedding Rings On or Off? On and still very loose, I haven't gained any weight in my arms, hands, legs, or behind... In fact the opposite my arms and legs have gotten thinner so I have just tummy.

Happy or Moody? Half and half at this point, the thought of how little time we have to get ready for Gage's arrival sometimes gets to me. But we are doing a new sunday school class on Joy and that is helping me view things differently.

Looking Forward To? Summer Months with the new baby and seeing my mother in law , Bright Eyes and my baby together.... That will be just neat.
