Week 35

How far along: 35 weeks 3 days
Only: 32 days until due date

Total weight gain: 26 pounds

Best Moment this Week: We finally had some maternity pictures made! I was a little nervous because it started raining the afternoon we were supposed to take them, but it was a little shower and it helped cool things off a bit. I had a lot of fun and can't wait to see them. We also finished up our childbirthing class with a tour of the hospital.

Enjoying: Baby girl is getting stronger by the day. Crazy kicks and rolls are going on in belly like never before. Chris was able to see my entire belly move for the first time. She is getting hiccups all the time and it cracks me up because she gets mad and starts kicking even more.

Experiencing: lots of rib pain, swelling in my feet at the end of the day, fatigue is back, and so are the crazy vivid dreams. I had a dream I was at work and started having contractions, but the line was so long I couldn't leave. I also had another one that I wanted to share, but now I have prego brain and can't remember what it was, just that it was crazy.

Belly button: in, although my sister kindly informed that it looked weird even though it was in
Wedding rings: on

Looking forward to: My baby shower on Sunday! My sister and friend are hosting and I am so excited to see what they have done. They haven't really told me what they are planning. I know they have both worked really hard though and I am so grateful for all of their time and effort.

Size of Baby: 19-22 inches and about 6 pounds. At this point, she's not really growing in height and is just gaining weight.
