35 Weeks!

Sorry for the lack of posting. We have been on a mini-vacation and just got back, so I will be sure to post about that later. But today marks a very important day in my pregnancy. I am at 35/35. I am 35 weeks into my pregnancy and have 35 days left! [give or take a few]

Does this give you a hint to what we did this weekend?

Pregnancy: 35 Weeks

Weight Gain: I am not sure I want to know after this past weekend!

Sleep: I am getting much more uncomfortable and definitely wake up to use the bathroom multiple times a night.

Gender: Girl

Name: Molly Grace

Feeling: Uncomfortable

Health: Still doing well. Hopefully I will get a good report at my appointment on Thursday.

Movement: PAINFUL! Some of her movements make me stop in my tracks and twist and turn to try and get her to move.

Belly: Huge!

What I am looking forward to: Holding my baby girl.

What I miss: Non-swollen feet.

Man, it was hot... see all that frizz?

Summer-ish

This weekend we saw temperatures in the 80s here in Indiana so we decided to pull out the baby pools. I am very thankful for the time I have with Dustin on the weekends, and especially the time Brooke has with him. Weekdays are so rushed, especially in the evenings, and he is gone two nights for baseball practice. I also cannot imagine setting up the sprinkler pool and chasing Brooke around the yard 34 weeks pregnant.

34 Weeks

Pregnancy: 34 Weeks

Weight Gain: 30lbs so far, definitely passing my goals!

Sleep: It would be great if Brooke didn't wake up in the middle of the night and knock on her door loudly!

Gender: Girl

Name: Molly Grace

Feeling: Exhausted and ready!

Health: Still doing well as far as I know. We'll find out at my appointment on Wednesday.

Movement: She is so high it can be painful at times. She also spends most of her time transverse which can get pretty uncomfortable when she stretches out.

Belly: My stretch marks are starting to spread into new ones. Boo!

What I am looking forward to: Finishing the nursery and reaching full term.

What I miss: Margaritas. I think if you go back in my pregnancy posts this is my most missed item.

And just because I think this picture is hilarous...

Uh Oh

Don't tell daddy!

Top 2 Tuesday

Top 2 things you want to do before you die

1. I want to take a 2 week tour of Italy and Greece. My family is from Italy so what better thing to do than visit my homeland! I would also like to actually leave the country and do something other than suntan in Mexico. Perhaps it will help me get over my fear of flying... either that or I will have a panic attack somewhere over the Atlantic Ocean.

2. I want to be a surrogate mother. Way for me to go all serious on this post, right?! There is really no gentle way to address the subject of infertility in a blog post. I love being pregnant. I feel heart broken for friends and family (and others) who have trouble having children of their own. Dustin and I currently feel like three is our limit but I would love to give the gift of a child to someone else someday down the road.
