Baby #3: 35 Weeks

35 Weeks

Baby is the size of a canary melon
(about 19-22 inches long)
Weighs about 5.5 pounds

How far along? 35 Weeks
Maternity clothes? Always.
Stretch marks? No
Sleep: I sleep pretty well, still switching sides every hour or two.  I also have this really fun habit of waking up around 2am and not being able to go back to sleep for 3+ hours. It doesn't happen every day (thankfully!) but it does happen often. 
Have you told family and friends: Yes.
Miss Anything? Being able to sit to watch a TV show and being able to move when I'm done.
Movement: He's a mover! Lots of kicks by my ribs on the left side. Also lots of kicks to both of my sides. 
Food cravings: Things that I didn't prepare.
Anything making you queasy or sick: I've been pretty good so far this pregnancy.
Have you started to show yet: Yep. I feel like I'm huge right now.
Gender prediction: We're having a boy.
Labor Signs: No.
Belly Button in or out? In
Wedding rings on or off? On and I may be able to keep them on the whole pregnancy! I have had no swelling so far and it's awesome. Three cheers for third trimesters not being in the summer!
Happy or Moody most of the time: If I have to pick one, it's probably moody. I don't have the patience for  things/people/situations that I should have. 
Do you have a name picked out: Nope, we have a long list of names we don't hate but nothing is leading the pack. Tate has started to suggest other names than "Tate Again." His most recent are Brook (his female cousin) and Ashley. I don't think either of those will work out.
Looking forward to: Sleeping well
Things I'm worried about: Delivering with a new doctor at a new hospital. I found out in February that despite the new insurance telling me my doctor is covered, he is not. Super meltdown. So at 32ish weeks I had to find a new doctor with no advice from anyone. Luckily, I found one that seems pretty awesome and I'm hopeful that everything goes well.
Things I'm loving: Knowing I'm in the home stretch. I'm really hoping baby comes in the earlier stages of full-term but I also want to give him as much time as I can to fatten him up in there. I'm hoping for a baby that is at least 7 pounds and can hold his temperature after delivery. That's not too much to ask, right?

Baby Girl: 35 Weeks

35 Weeks
Baby is the size of a large cantaloupe (about 19-22 inches long)
Weighs about 6 pounds

 

How far along are you? 35 weeks
Sleep: We've been house sitting so I'm not in my bed which makes sleeping a bit more difficult. I'm always tired though and just really want to not be sore when I move from one side to another.
Mood changes: I don't think I'm moody or anything but maybe I am. I feel like I get frustrated with Tate more quickly than I normally do so I guess there's that.
Cravings: Candy. All the candy in all the world. But then I eat it and feel sick. Oh, sugar. You're delicious but make me so very sick.
Other symptoms: Very sore hips and back. Sometimes they feel like menstrual cramps which worries me that it's early labor. I have no idea. Just stay inside for 2 more weeks, Baby Girl.
Movement: Moving all the time. Sometimes I feel like she has more than four limbs.
Anything making you queasy or sick: Feeling pretty good this week.
Have you started to show yet:  Yep.
Do you have a name picked out: Still no name.
Maternity clothes: Always
Labor Signs: Nope.
Belly Button in or out: in
Wedding rings on or off: Off.
Looking forward to: Tomorrow and being able to say "My baby is due next month."
Things I'm worried about: Going into labor before 37 weeks. I know she'd be fine but I really want to make sure she's full term.
Things I'm loving: Asking Tate what we should name the baby. His most recent name is "MyMamaDada." He also likes "TateMamaDada" so we'll probably put those both on the list.

*Baby H. 35 week update here.

35 Weeks

35 Weeks

Baby is the size of a large cantaloupe
(about 19-22  inches long)

Weighs about 5.5 pounds

 

How far along? 35 Weeks
Maternity clothes? Pants, yes.  Shirts, not so much...thank you stretchy fabric.
Stretch marks? Nope
Sleep: Remember this day?  Yeah, sleep and I are not friends right now though I desperately want to be his BFF.
Have you told family and friends: Yes
Miss Anything? Unsore hips, sleeping on my stomach, sleeping in general, touching my toes, my ankles not being wider than my calves
Movement:  all the time.  It's more moving from one side to another and less kicking but he's moving all over the place.
Food cravings: I haven't really wanted much to eat lately, mostly (I'm assuming) because baby is making it so my stomach is about the size of a dime but I still do love salt.  I could eat Chick-Fil-A french fries for every meal and be one happy (bloated and fat) momma.
Anything making you queasy or sick: Not really, I've got a stomach of steel apparently.
Have you started to show yet: Yes.
Gender prediction: It's a boy!
Labor Signs: Nope.  I haven't even noticed any Braxton Hicks. Though I don't really know what I'm looking for.
Belly Button in or out? Still in because it was a cavern...pretty sure my belly button could have been a wading pool if it was a bit wider before I was pregnant.  Now it's about an inch deep.
Wedding rings on or off? Off, I can still wear them, they're just uncomfortable.
Happy or Moody most of the time:  Happy...tired and sweaty but happy.
Looking forward to: Finishing the nursery.
Things I'm worried about: Figuring out how to get to my 4:10 appointments when I work until 4:00.
Things I'm loving: Feeling the baby move all the time.
