35w0d, AKA 35/35!

How Far Along: 35w0d

Weight Gain: 21-22 lb’s

Maternity Clothes: Getting annoying. But at the same time, my non-maternity wardrobe is going to look awful on me when my cute belly goes from being, well, CUTE, to being a big ball of pudge.

Symptoms: Trouble breathing when laying down, stuffy nose, very very tired, achy back. Also, indigestion to the point where I had my first Tums ever last night, and they somehow reminded me of eating mints at my grandparents as a child. Matt is now convinced that the mints WERE Tums, and I am not sure if I disagree with him.

Sleep: Kind of difficult, as I get up 2-3 times to go pee, and after I lay down each time, I have trouble breathing for about 10 minutes. Also, getting up seems to wake up Baby Girl, so there's that to contend with too.

Best Moment of the Week: Probably getting my packages I ordered on Saturday It involved a new diaper bag, and some other little goodies, and it felt like Christmas!

Movement: Yep, and I've realized that I love hiccups, because they reassure me that she's still head-down.

Food cravings: None to speak of, really. My appetite has almost entirely disappeared over the last few days.

Gender: A girl!

What I Miss: Nothing really

What I’m Looking Forward To:  September! I can't believe it's tomorrow, and I can't wait for the real countdown to begin.

Milestones: 35 weeks, with 35 days left! Also, 35 weeks is supposed to be a big milestone for lung maturity. 2 weeks until full-term feels pretty huge too.

Emotions: Very moody and feeling unprepared. I know we have everything we need, but it's still in boxes! We seriously need to move downstairs, but it is so completely out of our (okay, maybe MY) control, and I'm starting to get really frustrated.

Belly Photo: Hoping to take this later when Elijah's nap is done.
