How far along: 34 weeks Countdown to EDD: 6 weeks (ahh!!!)/42 days
Baby is the size of a: Butternut squash. He feels giant.
Physical symptoms: Super uncomfortable. Either baby is getting so big that he's taking up my whole torso or he's wedged up towards my chest. Sitting down is painful.
Mood: Mostly good, but I'm getting easily frustrated when I can't do things I normally do.
Total Weight Gain/Loss: About +20 lbs. Though according to the stranger that did a full inspection of my body the other day, it looks like I only gained 10. Thanks?
Maternity clothes: Tops yes, but I've been living in my new non-maternity yoga pants. I have four pairs now.
Sleep: Still pretty good so I guess that's a fair trade for being so uncomfortable during the day. I'll take it.
Best moment of the week: We picked a name! I'm not going to share it on here because I don't use our real names here. I don't want this blog to show up if someone Googles us. Because people are totally Googling us all the time.
Movement: OMFG. The alien belly was out of control last night. Seth and I were half screaming, half laughing at it. Then laughing made the baby move more. I absolutely love seeing and feeling him move because I was afraid I'd never experience this...but it does freak me out a bit.
Food cravings/aversions: Still french fries. If I could eat french fries for every meal, I would.
Sex: Boy
Labor signs: Nope. I don't even notice BH that often, but maybe I'm just getting used to them.
What I miss: Sitting and bending over without pain.
What I am looking forward to: We have another growth scan on Tuesday and it turns out Seth will be able to go after all!
Milestones: 34 weeks today! Baby could arrive at any time. If I go into labor, they're not going to stop me! Hopefully he hangs out in there for a few more weeks though.
Showing yet: Yes. I noticed that I've gained most of my non-belly weight on my lower body. I don't recognize my legs. My ass looks big(ger) too, but to be honest I wouldn't mind if that hangs around after baby is born.
Your ass looks phenomenal.
ReplyDeleteI totally LOL'd at the random guy guessing how much weight you've gained - that is so messed up.
Yay for Hubs being able to come to the next scan! I can't believe you're getting so close now. Crazy. Go alien baby, go! (PS: I love the name :-) )
I cant believe how quickly time is flying by, 34 weeks already?! You look amazing, belly, butt and all!! I can totally relate to being frustrated when I can't do things or reach things. And the alien belly - I am so with you on that!! So glad Seth can make it to the next growth scan :)
ReplyDeleteCongrats on 34 weeks! That is a huge milestone. You look terrific! I can totally relate to the leg thing. My husband told me the other night that my calves looked huge (thank you, pregnancy swelling). Yay on picking a name!
ReplyDeleteYAY for 34 weeks! Can't wait to "meet" that little boy of yours! You look fantastic!
