34 Weeks

How far along? 34 Weeks:)

Weight Gain/Loss: +21 Lbs

Maternity Clothes? Yep

Symptoms: Occasional heartburn, lots of braxton hicks, pelvic pressure, some real contractions at night and as of lately the baby must have dropped more because Ive been eating like a bottomless pit! Last week I could barely eat 3 meals a day.

Best moment this week: Going to visit my parents for the last time until Allie arrives. R got to go on a hunting trip with my dad and shot 2 deer, one was a 9 point buck! Very happy for him and happy to have free meat in my freezer!

Food Cravings? Still sweets in a major way. But now the food aversions are subsiding.

Gender? Girl:)

Belly button in or out? Stretched to the point of not being able to see it.

Stretch Marks? Same ole ones

Movement? All the time! I LOVE it!

What Im looking forward to: Finding out what progress, if any, my body has made in preparation for labor at my 36 week appointment!

Weekly Wisdom: Well meaning advice to new parents (unless requested) about how they should or shouldnt take care of their kid is better left unsaid. If they want to know they will generally ask for some pointers.

Milestones: Allie should be past the 5 lb mark and her immune system should be fully functioning.

Baby Size: 5.25 lbs and 18-19 inches long!

Baby bump this week: (It looks smaller because she dropped some)
