Baby’s size: Somewhere around 19 inches long and about 4.75 pounds! I keep getting comments about how big I look. This baby doesn’t feel tiny to me (I was still relatively comfortable with tiny Kaelyn at this point), but I actually still weigh less than I did at this time with my other two pregnancies. It will be interesting to see how big this little girl really is!
Maternity clothes?: Yes, and I’ve abandoned wearing a lot of my “smaller” maternity tops for the ones that are larger-sized. It’s nice to know your belly isn’t hanging out of the bottom of your shirt!
Gender: Girl!
Symptoms: I still had that sinus thing going on this week.
Sleep: Good, but I always want a nap!
Movement: She’s still sticking her feet high up in my ribs, and she loves to kick the bed if I lay down on my side.
Cravings: Nothing in particular this week.
What I miss: Feeling truly athletic. I’m getting the miles in, but I miss looking and feeling fit!
Anything making you queasy or sick?: This was a really hard week with nausea. When I wasn’t queasy, I just had no appetite for most of the week. Michael even came home early from work one day to help me take care of the kids, and another day, he went to the store and got a few things that he knows I can stomach eating. He’s the best.
Belly Button in or out?: My belly button has pretty much disappeared…
Exercising?: Ran 22.8 miles. It’s slow going and I feel a lot of pelvic pressure, but I’m proud of myself for getting out there and trying hard. Fitbit total: 75,869 steps.
Mood: I feel like I start to feel overwhelmed when I’m sick for a few days in a row. There’s too much to do to just rest!
Best moment this week: Getting paint for the nursery and having some extra time with Michael!
Looking forward to: Kaya’s birthday party next weekend! Also, if this baby is as early as Kaelyn was, we only have exactly one month to go. I can’t wait to finally kiss those little cheeks!
Big sisters: They were both rubbing my belly and kissing it during church this morning. I love seeing them love on their baby sister before they’ve even met her!
Comparison: 34 weeks with Kaya; 34 weeks with Kaelyn. I think my belly is looking a lot like it did with Kaelyn!
