35 Weeks

Phoenix-did I put the right # this time?!  :)
I need an editor! :)

How far along:
35 weeks



Weight Gain:
3 lbs this week, 27 lbs total
I'm officially ready to take a hammer to our scale!

Sleep:
Still good I guess with the exception of the multiple potty breaks.
I'm not so sure I'm getting very restful sleep every night-just can't seem to shut my mind off some times worrying about packing our bags, if she has enough clothes (anyone who was at my tea knows the answer to this, but still), what else we still need to get...etc.  Oh wait and then theres that labor and delivery thing too...

Best moment of the week:
It was a good week...
-The hubs and I got to spend some good quality time together-Friday night in, Saturday morning walk as a family, Sunday major baby shopping, and Monday doc appt and running around town together.

-We went to our breastfeeding class last Wednesday and as overwhelming as it was, it was super helpful! While I feel like some of the info they gave was a little overboard for our taste, the general tips and tricks will become very helpful and we are going to have to adapt them to our lifestyle. In general, very glad we went and again, the hubs couldn't have been a better support! Love him!
-We also got the dresser in the nursery (thanks Mom and Pop!) and all of her clothes washed! It's so much fun to go in there and play with her outfits and try to picture just what she is going to look like in them!


Food Cravings:
Peanut Butter cookies from Publix bakery have not let me down this week! Yum!

Gender:
GIRL!!!!!


Movement:
Still tons of movement! I had heard taht the further along you get, the less movement, but of course, our little one has gone against the norm and has been moving even more the further along we've gotten! :)

She also got the hiccups for the 1st time this week! Standing there at work and all of teh sudden I notice littel kicks, in a pattern...cutest hiccups ever! It's so cute and such a reassurance that she is ok, but at the same time I feel bad, b/c who likes having the hiccups?! :)


What I miss: Again, nothing major, but def not used to having to depend on others so much to do things.  I miss just being able to get things done without having to think if its best for me and her and whether or not I should just "go lay down and relax"...just not my nature. ;)


What I am looking forward to:
As of the end of this week, we will have a month until Hollis' due date! I can't believe we are already almost there! We go to the doc every week from now on and they will begin to check me for progress on Monday.

I'm going to start packing our bags this week so that the hubs will feel a little more relaxed (he's been worried about my bags being packed).


In other preggo news:
We did experience our first bit of not so fun parts of pregnancy this week...had some contractions and back pains a few times this week.
Being new to this whole pregnancy, contractions, pain thing, we were unsure of exactly what to do or what it was, but after speaking with the doc, turns out its just our sweet daughter cramping all of my internal organs around as she sees fit, causing some moments of feeling uncomfortable. 
Eveyrthing is A-ok with us both, but def a slight scare when you think that I could technically have her at any time now!
