Sorry but I am "borrowing" some of you ladies' journal format today...
How far along? 34 weeks!
How far to go? 3 weeks until "term" of 37 weeks and 36 days until scheduled C-section at 39 weeks, 1 day.. (IF we make it to there!)
How much time left at work? 2.5 weeks AND an exam I need to study for..
Total weight gain: I'd rather not think about that...
Maternity clothes? Running out of things to wear as our winter is settling in properly and I refuse to buy more clothes when there is actually just a little time left..
Stretch marks? Haven't noticed any new ones.. but probably coming soon
Sleep: Having WEIRD dreams.. some terrifying (non-baby related) some nice and some disturbing.. (keep dreaming of a guy at work...??!! WTF)
Best moment this week: Uneventful.. every day that goes by is a celebration to one day closer to my baby boy.. not wishing time away .. but also.... um.. ja.
Movement: Toning down a bit but Big movements with huge bumps protruding from my belly which can be really sore! I still like it though as it assures me this little one is growing strong.. (but OUCH baby boy!)
Food cravings: Fruit.. fresh stuff.. not sure why.. getting heartburn almost CONSTANTLY
Labor signs: I don't think any signs that indicates that I am going to the hospital in the next few days.. but some niggling constant ones that tells me time is getting closer.. Increased contractions (BH).. dull lower back pain.. some days with really upset tummy (without eating anything strange) and increased discharge which is getting annoying (see above note of few maternity clothes.. I have like 2 pairs of pants that fit so I'm washing every second day already!)
Belly button in or out? still in but stretched and getting sore.
Mood: Impatient, excited, easily irritated (Very much linked to the physical symptoms though.. the worse I feel physically, the worse I feel emotionally..)
NOT looking forward to: Writing an exam on 27 June.. (with MY PUDDING BRAIN!)
Looking forward to: Next doc's appointment on 17th of June (even though the actual chek-up is shorter than my drive and wait in the waiting room!!)
So here's to another week closer......

I have also had it where I had gas from just doing water! It feels like there is air trapped in between my ribs and spine which has been painful so I hope you're finding some relief. You don't have that long to go, Yay! |
