Baby #2 - Week 35

How far along: 35! 35! 35! Aaaaah!

How big is baby? A coconut? A coconut is TINY! Her HEAD feels like a freaking coconut, let alone the rest of her!

Sleep: So bad. The late pregnancy insomnia has officially kicked in - can't get comfortable, raging back pain, lying awake and staring at the ceiling... it's so frustrating.

Symptoms: Back, ribs, pelvic pressure. Ouch,

Best moment of this week: After a few scary days of quiet movements, she seems back to her normal self a little, so I'm taking comfort in every wiggle. I'll miss the comfort of the movements once she's here.

Miss anything: Stinking hot baths. I want to lie in there and shrivel up like a hot, hot prune.

Movement: Hit and miss, but CTG monitoring shows she's still doing well, so I'm trying to just be aware.

Food cravings: I feel like a Whopper with Cheese. Yep. Hamburgers.

Anything making you queasy or sick: Nope. I'm ok, except for the tiredness.

Gender: Girl!!

How's your mood? I'm so grateful this week! We are at 35 weeks, she's a growing girl with a hefty weight (how crazy going from fearing a premature 29 week infant to anticipating a gigantic baby!) & we have held on this long - life feels pretty damn good right now.

Looking forward to: Meeting this little lady - whenever that will be.

The Bump: Waddle waddle waddle.
