How far along? 35 Weeks
Gender: Boy
Total weight gain/loss: 40 big ones! Eee! Dr said most of the weight gain is from swelling cuz it’s getting warmer these days…I think he took one look at my sausage toes…
Maternity clothes? Yes! And some non-maternity; but the ratio is small, very small. Like my old jeans.
Stretch marks? None yet!
Sleep: It’s better than the last couple of weeks because baby has moved downwards (and is in perfect position according to my Doc) and I can breathe again and am suffering less from heartburn. I’m just heavy so getting out of bed is pretty hilarious.
Best moment this week: This week was so busy but I would definitely say having girl time with my girls and getting the most amazing packages in the mail! I received a few gifts from friends (my Solly Baby Wrap & Honest Baby Arrival Gift Set) and my first Honest bundle arrived too. Oh, and my super hip Black Keekaroo Peanut Change Pad. It’s amazing.
Have you told family and friends: Yes!
Miss Anything? The usual: my mobility, my energy, and my pre-preggo clothes. Oh, and I would slurp up a Diet Coke with lots of fresh lime.
Movement: YES and his movements are insane, hard and so cool! His favourite thing is to kick my left side, what a sweetheart ;)
Food cravings: Popsicles. Watermelon with salt. Water. Cinnamon Raisin Bagels/Bread. Cookies. Pineapple. Red Delicious Apples. And I am counting down the days until I can enjoy a pint of Kronenburg Blanc with a juicy orange. Mmm.
Have you started to show yet: HAHAHA.
Labor Signs: Nope, not yet! But definitely getting Braxton Hicks these days, often actually. They aren’t too bad now that I know what they are!
Belly Button in or out? It’s out. It’s freaky.
Wedding rings on or off? Wedding band is on and I can still squeeze my engagement ring on for special occasions.
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy!
Looking forward to: Completing Baby B’s nursery (I can’t wait to post pics), finishing up work and getting some hardcore cleaning done in our apartment (stove, I am looking at you!), starting and finishing my little master bedroom makeover (more on that later!), and MEETING BABY B!!! Eee! I can’t wait!
^ such a wonderful mail day!
^ gelato from last weekend. I was so sad when it was done.
My weeks seem to be flying by and I am just trying to keep up, ha. I was able to stay up late one night and wash all the baby clothes, sheets, and some swaddles so I am definitely feeling a bit more prepared.
I started packing my hospital bag and Baby B’s diaper bag too (a separate post will be up shortly!); I still have things to add. Next up is Daddy Hospital Bag and I want to fill it with the best snacks for Hubs. Any suggestions as to what would be easy (but somewhat healthy and delicious) to pack for my darling husband?
Hubs is away this weekend for a small boys get-together/Beer & Diaper party!
You know what that means, girlie sleepover with my bestie C, Rom Coms, and Yogurty’s. Woo.
Have a lovely weekend!
XO
