35 weeks

How far along? 35 weeks.

Baby Hart is the size of:  A honeydew melon :)

Total weight gain/loss:  Still know of the 19 gained- we have an appointment this Friday and will get an updated number then :)

Maternity clothes? Yes and they are seriously getting too tight/short- how can they not make maternity clothes to last the full time for heavens sake??

Stretch marks? Yes, several.  Mine as well look as beat up as I feel ;)

Sleep:  Awful.  I keep waking up SO uncomfortable, and it's torture to get my achy body outa bed and to the bathroom multiple times a night :p

Best moment this week:  Having Silas finally try to feel the baby move :)  Up until now he's been too distracted to have the patience and/or he's just been interested in tickling me ;)  Also, we got the nursery all ready to go this week!! Yayy!!!

Miss anything? Many things.

Movement:  Lots still, though I do think he seems to be getting crowded;)  He always kicks the same exact spot though and that is starting to get REALLY sore.

Food cravings: Fall/pumpkin things!! Craving fall in general!!!

Symptoms:  All the classics.  And clumsiness, if that can count.  Oh and the heartburn has gotten UNREAL:p
Showing?  People (strangers) have started asking me "how many weeks" I have left.  So, yes.

Gender:  Boy:)

Belly button in or out?  Out.
Wedding rings on or off?  On.

Adjustments? Adjusting to the realization that I just won't be able to fully adjust in ways I'd like.... if that makes sense...

Emotions: Freaking. Out.  Nesting/panic mode has fully set in.  I'm posting this instead of going to bed now like I was gonna because I'm nervous if my water breaks I will have been behind on this blog;)

Learned this week:  What nesting feels like (I didn't nest with Silas until the night my water broke, lol!  Been nesting now for several days and it's about to make me CRAZY).

So thankful for:  My hubby!!! He has been a LIFESAVER with his amazing help around the house/with Silas/ect.

Looking forward to:  My ultrasound and appointment on Friday!

Week 35

How far along? 35 weeks.

Baby Hart is the size of:  A coconut.

Total weight gain/loss:  1/2 pound, which I think was really allll Baby Hart's gain.... uff da!  23 1/2 lbs. total.

Maternity clothes? Yes.

Stretch marks? No.

Sleep: Not sure which wakes me up more now- needing to pee or the aches in my hips and legs:P

Best moment this week:  Completing 8 months of pregnancy and beginning #9!  

Miss anything? Not hurting;)

Movement: Lots- Baby Hart decided to explore a few different positions this week, which meant his usual kicks and squirms in my ribs ended up being in different places- mainly, right on my bladder.  Glad to say he's back to the knees and squirms being in my ribs;)

Food cravings:  Skittles.  I've eaten a LOT of skittles lately;)

Symptoms:  Just a week ago I was all like "Yeah feeling great, woo hoo..."  This week the uncomfortableness has struck!  My lower back and hips are superly hurting, and I've definitely embraced the pregnancy waddle.  Yay for my sweet hubby's foot and back rubs and help around the house!
Showing?  Umm yes I think so;)

Gender:  Boy:)

Belly button in or out?  Out.
Wedding rings on or off? On, though yes, I forgot to wear it when we took this picture.  Woops:)

Adjustments?  Had a great chiropractic adjustment this week that helped a lot with the back pain.... for a couple days;)

Emotions: Happy and so excited- with a bit of grumpiness over the uncomfortableness;)

Learned this week:  That everything I've heard about the "uncomfortable stage" of the 3rd trimester is true.  And I know it's not even at its worse yet:P

So thankful for:  Prenatal yoga!  It's been so helpful all along but especially now...

Looking forward to:  Getting a prenatal massage on Monday!  And hitting full-term next Friday!:)

Other highlights:  I'm so excited about Baby Hart's arrival- and having baby stuff around the house is making it even more exciting!!!  Here's the swing we got from my parents- love it!:

And here's the adorable bouncer seat from my lil brother and his wife:
