35 weeks


How far along? 35 weeks, size of a... We left this blank. Likely weighing in at 5 lbs now! 
Total weight gain: 32 lbs
Maternity clothes? Uh huh
Stretch marks? Nope!
Sleep: Terrible. My hips ache when I'm on my side too long, uncomfortable on my back... Just crummy. 
Best moment this week: Completing the nursery! It's completely ready and it feels so good! 
Have you told family and friends? Yes.
Miss Anything? Good sleep... Might be a while before I ever get that back. I'd be happy with just 2-3 hours if I was comfortable the whole time! 
Cravings? Ice Cream. Every. Day. :)
Movement? Yep! She's head down, and rolls side to side alllllllll the time! 
Anything making you queasy or sick? No

Belly Button in or out? In
Wedding Ring on or off? Still both. I can wear them during the day, but have to take them off to sleep.
Looking forward to: Our final birthing class! First one was very interesting! 
Symptoms: Terrible sleep, lower back pain, heel pain if I stand too much in a day but not sure if that's pregnancy related...? My guess is yes since my body is having to carry 30 extra pounds! Still feel out of breath at times... I think that's about it for now! (Knock on wood)
