Pregnancy Highlights from this week:
How far along? 34 Weeks (almost...we round up, right?)
Size of the baby? 19-22 inches, 4.9 lbs- the size of a pineapple (That is according to my "What To Expect" app on my phone) according to my doctor he is measuring big. I am getting an extra ultrasound in a week to check his growth. Walker it would be really great on your mama if you weren't like 9 lbs...thanks!
Maternity Clothes? Mostly all maternity clothes at this point
Gender? Sweet baby boy!
Movement? Lots of movement, still very active at night. He is getting hiccups at least once a day now. He is big and rollin' around in there and I love to watch my stomach move all around!
Sleep? It is hit or miss to be honest. Several nights I have woken up at 3-4am and can't go back to sleep, super annoying. Other nights it is great and I sleep through. I do usually get up once to pee, but not every night.
Cravings? Cereal, salad, and sweets
Symptoms? So at this point with Banks I was already getting pretty swollen (mostly my feet), but THANK GOODNESS I have not had that issue yet. Maybe it was the heat with him, but this go 'round I can still wear my rings, my shoes, etc. I have had mild heartburn (need to remember to take meds) and I am overall a tiny bit uncomfortable. For the most part I have been getting around pretty good. I am so so so grateful that I feel great because I want to give Banks 100% right now as I soak in the last weeks of him being my only!
What I miss? Regular clothes
Milestones? The end is in sight!
What I am nervous about? I need to get Walker's nursery finished! We worked this weekend and got his crib in the right position, his bedding on, etc. My mom and I also made his pillow for his rocker. I still need a few baby items as well as make his art work for over his crib. Its coming together slowly!
I am also starting to get nervous about being a mother to two. Some days I feel like Banks takes 110%, how am I going to add a needy newborn to the mix? This has been a constant in my prayers lately.
What I'm excited about? Just excited to know that this Christmas we will be a family of four. I know it will be crazy and we will be tired, but I'm just so excited. I am mostly excited for Banks to meet his brother! Its starting to get real!
