How Far Along: 34 weeks
Total Weight Gain: not sure... scale at OB office says 42 lbs; home scale says 38 lbs! (goal at 40 weeks was 35 lbs - goal is now 44 lbs)
Maternity Clothes: Am now graduating from maternity shirts to my hubbies old t-shirts for lounge wear at home. My black maternity pants don't fit in the hips anymore - so I'm always in my maternity jeans at work. Thank God for a flexible dress code!
Movement: I think I felt baby's foot or knee the other day! Something small and hard was sticking out of my belly. I rubbed it and after a couple wiggles, it went away.
Sleep: about 50% of my sleep was quality sleep this week. This is very good for me!
Gender: BOY!
Symptoms: pubic bone pain, vagina pain, round ligament pain at times, Braxton Hicks contractions, carpal tunnel syndrome, hands beginning round 2 of swelling, leg cramps when sleeping, sore feet, bones all over body crack when first getting up to move, tailbone pain.
Cravings: biggest one is ice cream. This week's treat of choice: drumsticks!
Things I Miss: stamina, bending over, ability to walk normally, my wedding ring, regular underwear!
Highlight of the Week: breastfeeding class - very informative!
Last Appointment: last Tuesday, 9/17 - 34 week OB check up. All is looking good!
Next Appointment: Tuesday, 10/1 - 36 week OB check. They will check for group B strep at this appointment. This is the first of my weekly OB appointments! Cervix checks start at ~37 weeks.
Preggo Lifesavers: maternity belt, boppy cuddle pillow, adjustable flip flops, tums!
