35 Weeks


How far along? 35 weeks
Total weight gain/loss: I didn't weigh this morning, but at my appointment last Wednesday, I think I was up 18 lbs.
Maternity clothes? Yup, and I'm back in normal maternity clothes today because I'm off bed rest!!!
Stretch marks? Yes, and they are weird looking. The ones above my belly button are very vivid and intertwined, and the ones below my belly button go around and up my sides.
Sleep: I seem to sleep poorly every other night and sleep fine the rest. However, if I sleep poorly, I can make up for it with naps!
Best moment this week: Getting a good report from the doctor (I never updated after that, apparently), getting off bed rest today, and choosing a pediatrician tonight!
Movement: Yup, but it's mostly just squirms and random pressure. He's definitely less active than before.
Food cravings: My appetite has been increasing, and I'm eating a lot of cookies, which probably isn't good.
Gender: Boy
Labor Signs: My cervix is holding steady as of my last appointment. There's still definite pressure, and it still makes me nervous from time to time, but I'm feeling good overall.
Belly Button in or out? In, but just barely.
What I miss: Feeling Stretch being more active. Now it's just sort of uncomfortable when he's moving around.
What I am looking forward to: Being full-term so I can be wholly excited about signs of labor and cervical changes. Also, the glider should be coming in this week, which means the nursery will be basically complete.
Weekly Wisdom: Write things down. It's easy to lose track of to-dos and shopping lists when you have more important things on your mind.
Milestones: 35/35 today! Off bed rest!
