Welp here I am 34 weeks pregnant! You are probably thinking that that shirt looks familiar, that's because I am running out of clothes that fit me! I cycle through the same few outfits all the time!! The closer I get to the end the less variety I have to work with with my wardrobe. Oh well!
At 34 weeks My baby is the size of a honeydew! The melons are back! Is it just me or are these fruit and veggie comparisons all over the place!? Sometimes it's based on size, or length, and some weight. This week I think we are back to weight. About 5 pounds, otherwise known as a honeydew! :)
The pounds are what really amazes me. I know that many babies have been born in the 5-6 pound range and its hard to think that one of those is in my belly!
I had an ultra sound at my last doctors appointment because there was a concern that Brady may still be breech or transverse, but luckily he wasn't! At the ultrasound he was in the correct head down position! I was soo happy! I was stressing so much about it, I was worried that I would have to have him turned by the doctor pushing and tugging at my belly which is uncomfortable for me and the baby! Or there was the possibiliy that I might have to have a c-section if he wouldn't turn! I was so scared I didn't want any of those things to happen. But luckily my little boy decided to finally flip on his own and is now just where he needs to be for birth!! :)
Also, I am measuring a week ahead of schedule. So either I am having a big baby or this little guy may meet the world a little early. I'm thinking a 4th of July baby?!? :)
This week Brady has been moving like crazy, and he has been having the hiccups, A LOT! It's so funny to watch my stomach when he gets the hiccups.. haha I love it though!
How I'm doing:
Even though I am extremly exhausted every night when I go to bed I am having restless nights of frequent pee breaks and tossing and turning, while trying to get comfortable. I wake up about every hour to go pee, it's ridiculous! Plus my back is constantly aching!
Sooo, unfortunately the back pain and subsequent lack of sleep has continued this week.
~Sleep=impossible!
~Bending over= a great Olympic challenge (Zach has to help me put on pants!)
~Eating= all the time.. I'm always hungry!!
~Baby room= almost done, we still need a dresser, a tree decal, and a rug (will post pics when it's complete!) and I need to finish washing clothes and blankets!
~Things we still need for Brady= A lot!
~Belly= ginormous!
(wasn't ready for this picture!)
I can't believe that baby Brady will be here in less than 6 weeks (or even sooner!) And, I finished my last day student teaching, happy graduation to me!!!
I am so happy I will be a new mom AND a college graduate, with a loving husband and new house. Life is good! :)
