34 weeks pregnancy update

July 4, 2018
How far along:
34 weeks 

Baby is the size of a:
Cantaloupe or a Basketball Hoop

Total weight gain:
Somehow I lost two pounds this week, I’m up 34lbs total. Maybe I can stay under 40lbs weight gain this pregnancy. 

Maternity Clothes?
All the way. 

Stretch Marks?
No

Sleep?
It’s okay. Some nights are painful, others are okay. 

Best moment of the Week:
We had a good weekend and I even got to go out with my friends twice! Katie and I were also in total nesting mode and got a lot of stuff done around the house and purged like crazy. 

Movement:
Still constantly. He is sitting in the exact spot Fox used to sit in and hurting the same areas on my back and rib cage, just on one side though.

Food Cravings:
Nothing unusual. 

Belly Button in or out:
Flattening out

Gender:
Sweet baby boy!

Symptoms:
Backaches, Rib Pains, getting out of breath, Braxton hicks contractions, exhaustion. While I’m ready to not be pregnant anymore, it makes me super sad to think that these are the last few weeks of me EVER being pregnant. I will never have this belly again…! I’m sure it gets even more emotional when the baby is growing up and to think I will never have a newborn again, never experience certain things again…oh boy! 

Anything Making you queasy or Sick?
Nothing.

Have you Started to Show yet?
Yes

What I miss:
Sleeping comfortably and I can’t get over wanting an ice cold coke. 

What I'm looking forward to:
Nothing in particular. We have a CPR class scheduled this week, another doctor’s appointment (although it’s just with a nurse since my doctor is out of town, so I won’t get an ultrasound) and another set of maternity pictures (something completely different that I have never done before, it’s just a mini session…stay tuned). 

What I'm not looking forward to:
Sleepless nights. I’m actually terrified just thinking about it. I hope we’ll have a good sleeper!

April phone dump

Some more pictures of our April. He's my bed hog, but I love sharing the bed with him and the way he comes find me in his sleep to snuggle up to me. Work Crew! Easter Preparations...it took me a solid hour to fill all the eggs. Finn chipped his permanent front tooth, and had to get it fixed. He was so brave. I tried to hold his hand to let him know I was there, and he kept giving me a thumbs up. Reading in bed with them is my favorite. We went to play mini golf, and it was an absolutely shit show. Just look at Finn in the background, he was on fire on this day. That's his "cool face". Not pictured are all the times he melted down because he wasn't "good enough". I really need to stop playing this game with him, because it happens every single time...haha.  Book Club! I wasn't a fan of the book, but it was great getting out and talking about books with other readers. He got into kinetic sand for a few weeks, and I felt like my floors were covered in s...

August iPhone dump

Some moments from my August... Coffee treats during busy shifts! Fox had a pool playdate with some friends. First day of middle school! Unfortunately I had to work and couldn't send him off that day, but my favorite co-parent came through with some pictures from the bus stop. Found a bunch of these selfies on my phone haha. On the way to school one morning, middle school is rough apparently. A quick brunch with friends to celebrate the end of summer break! My sweet friend Nikki gave me this bucket full of beautiful dresses that she had outgrown. A lot of them still had tags on them! Dinner date with the boys, they preferred playing a game together instead of talking to me...haha! Homework struggles have begun again! Sweet treats after school while we wait for Finn to get off the bus. Unfortunately their buses arrive an hour apart from each other, so we have a lot of waiting around because the bus stop is too far from my house.  He was helping me make schnitzel! We watched Bad guys ...
