How far along: 35 weeks! Although I don't foresee this baby coming early at all, if it did we could have a baby in just a few weeks. I'm getting a bit nervous now.
Baby Size: A baseball glove, a gallon of milk, a honeydew melon or a coconut
Weight: Up a couple pounds. Still fluctuating around the 30lb mark.
Symptoms:
Maternity Clothes: Tops are maternity.
Sleep: Up every 1 1/2 to 2 hours at night.
Cravings/Food Aversions: I snack all the time, and eat a lot of chocolate. Which explains some of the weight gain. Yet I don't really ever feel hungry, and when I do eat I only eat small portions before I feel full.
Belly Button: Out
Rings on or off: On
Gender: I think girl more than boy, but I bought a few cute boy outfits the other day and so now it must be a boy so he can wear them.
Name: I think Rob is back to the girl name we decided on, but no middle name yet
Movement: The baby had some quiet periods over the weekend, or it could have been that I was busy and just didn't notice it.
Stretch Marks: They are starting to be more obvious in places other than my belly (hips, back)
Best moment: Baby got a few toys for Christmas from my sister and niece and then I felt bad that I didn't even get anything for the baby. Lol.
Looking forward to: Seeing Eleanor and this baby bond although I'm nervous about jealousy (see below)
Nervous about: Eleanor's adjustment. She was a bit jealous over Christmas when Rob was holding our nephew (who turned 1 yesterday!)
The thought of two kids is starting to scare me a bit.
Nervous about not working because that means no income.
What I miss: Bending over, not being so cranky.
Labor signs: Braxton Hicks. I get them a lot.
Appointments: I had one yesterday. They didn't do the GBS test like I thought/hoped because I didn't have Eleanor with me. Otherwise it was a quick appointment; measuring on track and HR in the 150's. Next one in two weeks
Misc. I bought some more newborn diapers and size 1/2 (Sams club combines the sizes for their brand I guess) and I think I'm set on those for a few months (longer if we mix cloth in) and I got gas drops so I feel like I got something done. lol.
