34 Weeks

How far along? 34 Weeks

Weight Gained 21+ lbs.

Maternity clothes? Just made some final additions to get me through these last few weeks! I found a dress on clearance at Target that is going to be perfect for my baby shower, and do you know what it cost? EIGHT DOLLARS. Boom. 

Stretch marks? Trying to come to terms with them. Trying.

Sleep Status Finally got to sleep in this week, and I've loved every single minute! I could do without the 3AM heartburn, though.

Best Moments this Week Decompressing after a long month of student teaching, and realizing we can officially say we're having a baby next month. Next month! Weird.

Miss anything? Tanning. Judge me if you will, but these pasty white legs of mine could easily blind someone.

Food Cravings Birch beer and chili dogs-- YUM.

Aversions meat, dairy, and seafood

Showing? It's pretty hard to hide a cantaloupe-sized baby. Apparently I'm carrying it well, at least according to an older hispanic lady at Panera who thought I was only 5 months along. Thanks lady =]

Rings? Still on! My fingers get kind of swollen and fat at night, but they're back to normal by the time I wake up.

Belly Button? Starting to protrude and it's super gross.

Labor Signs Nothing this week. Doing my best to stay hydrated so I don't throw myself into another episode of Braxton-Hicks. Pretty scary to think that real labor is only a month and a half away!

Symptoms Heartburn, heartburn, heartburn, with a side of general aches and pains

Mood Good!

Looking forward to... the end of the semester, so I can finally get this house baby-ready! Only one week of finals and an entrance interview to go!
