35 Weeks!

Pregnancy Highlights

 

How far along? 35 Weeks! OMG only 5 weeks left....

 

Size of the baby? A 5-6 lbs 20" long, Honeydew melon

 

 

 

Maternity clothes? Yes yes yes

 

Stretch marks? No new ones

 

Weight gained: 7lbs

 

Sleep: It's alright, but like clockwork I usually wake up BURNING UP

in the middle of the night, every night.

 

Best moment this/last week: I heard her heartbeat again on Monday when

I went to have my BP checked, that of course never gets old.  It was 152bpm.

 

Movement: Very frequent, definitely like something from a Ridley Scott film (Alien). 

 

Food cravings: Water, ice water.

 

Gender/Names: GIRL! Persephone Layne Jones!

 

Labor Signs: Still an occasional Braxton Hicks. 

I've been monitoring my BP twice a day at work since Monday

and it's been in the 120's/70's and 130's/80's.

 

Belly Button in or out? Still in

 

Wedding rings on or off? Still wearing my wedding band

 

What I miss: Being able to get off the floor without help or

needing something to push up from, ha ha.

 

What I am looking forward to: My baby shower tomorrow,

meeting this little girl and hopefully losing weight after!
