Week 34 & 35

 

How far along? 34 - 35 Weeks

Total weight gain: 21 lbs+
Maternity clothes? Mostly leggings and stretchy clothes... whatever is comfortable
Stretch marks? None... which I'm hoping it will stay this way during these last few weeks, and I won't see any when I'm not pregnant. Fingers crossed!
Sleep: I'm not sure what this sleep thing is anymore.
Best moment this week: Getting all of her clothes cleaned and ready, making room for her stuff, and buying more baby stuff!
Miss Anything? Just sleep as of right now
Movement: She seems to enjoy kicking my ribs. It never really bothered me before, but now and again she'll pull some of her ninja kicks on my ribs
Food cravings: Hm let's see, pickles, chocolate milk, sour gummy worms, cranberry/cherry juice, pizza and of course warm cinnamon rolls with a glass of milk, YUM! Pretty much everything I've been craving for months.

Anything making you queasy or sick: My husband's farts... they seem to be getting worse with pregnancy...
Gender: Girl
Labor Signs: None

Symptoms: I'm definitely getting back to feeling tired again. I could seriously take a nap at about 9:30am, but I keep myself up and busy

 Belly Button in or out? out

 Wedding rings on or off?  On

Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy! with a hint of crankiness.
Looking forward to: Next week's appointment! We get another ultrasound!

I can't believe there is only 35 days left until my due date! It is coming up so quick and it felt like it was going to take forever to get here. 

These last two weeks have been spent looking online (a lot) for things like hooded towels, fabrics to make stuff, receiving blankets, and just updating our registries at Babies R Us and Target. We also got all of her clothes (that are here in Kansas) washed and folded, the bedroom arranged with the bassinet and her stuff in drawers, and some sewing done with breast pads and her blanket. And of course, shopping! Last weekend we went to Target (since that's the only place within 4 hours to go), and purchased:

Diaper Genie Elite & Filters 

 Newborn to Toddler Bath Tub

Boppy Pillow

Boppy Pillow Cover - in pink minky - LOVE!

Bath wash

Burp Cloths (Diaper cloths - super durable!)

and a Safety/Grooming Kit

  

There are still plenty of items left to get on the list, however, I think we are pretty set for the few short weeks we will be down here in Kansas after she's born until we move back home to Michigan! At least for the summer. The job hunt still continues for the both of us and we are waiting to hear back from the many positions we have applied to that recently closed. There just has to be something out there for us!

Somethings that will be done this upcoming week: Packing the hospital bag, getting an ultrasound on Wednesday May 1, packing up the apartment some more, finish sewing Baby G's blanket, and getting last minute items for her arrival. 

Packing the hospital bag is the most  important that I need to get done right now - to give me a peace of mind. I've been so cranky lately (I feel bad Justin has to deal with it!) due to the lack of sleep (which you could probably see in my 35 week picture) and just wanting to be comfortable, but also because of the things left to do. The crazy dreams where I wake up in a panic thinking I'm going into labor early have really messed with my mind! Darn pregnancy hormones!
