35 Weeks

How Far Along:
35 weeks - Feb. 2- 8, 2014
 
Size Of Baby?

A coconut! How fitting, because I wish I was somewhere warm enjoying a pina colada or two! A girl can dream right?

Hearing is fully developed. If baby is a boy his testes have descended. Baby is mostly developed at this point and is just growing away inside!! 

Crazy in less than a month this little peanut could be here. 

Maternity Clothes?
Mostly lounge again! My shirts seem to be getting shorter and shorter! I did get presentable a few time this week:

 It was a struggle finding something to wear for our maternity pictures, but we got it figured out!! 

Stretch Marks?
Still just a small one, but nothing really noticeable.
 
Gender?
Team Green!

What the Doctor Had To Say:
I'm sure this will be my last week off!!! 
  
Sleep?
It's happening on a minimal basis, especially with this cold. Napping hasn't happened much because of the renovation, and having company over during the time I would nap!

I did snag a nap after our maternity shoot with the heating pad and Lux to help warm me up!

Baby Purchases This Week:
I did buy a net for the bassinet/pack and play to help keep the cats out once the baby is here. So far they haven't had any interest, but I wanted one on hand just in case! 

Baby did get a gift this week from N:

Made this Week:
Crocheted - just a few more stripes to go! I really need to buckle down and get it done! 

Mobile pieces are done, and the mobile is hung!! 

Book shelves were cut, built, painted and hung!! Sneak peek: 
This will probably be the last peek into the nursery before the BIG reveal!! Which will hopefully be next week, so I tried to distort the image a bit!! 

M has started roping the light fixture. 

I started painting the picture frames for the gallery wall. 

Cravings/Aversions?
Nacho dip! 
Donuts again!! 
   
Movement?
After coming down with a cold, I heard a teaspoon of honey helps sooth your throat? So I tried it and man did the baby go crazy!!! Constant kicking for over 20 minutes!! Won't be doing that again before bed!!

Baby also went a little crazy during our maternity shoot in the snow!

Feeling?
I'm coming down with a cold!! I have a scratchy sore throat :( Hopefully it doesn't last long. Other than that I am feeling great!
Took my first longer trek during our maternity shoot during a snow storm, which wasn't as bad as I thought on my ankle. I did find myself somewhat short of breath at time, but trekking through knee deep snow can do that on a good day right?
I feel like I am starting to slow down, it did take me longer than usual getting groceries. I find I don't walk as fast with baby soo low!
Starting to feel a bit overwhelmed with the renovation mess! I feel like it's taking over. M keeps telling me it will be done before I know it.

Highlights:
Our maternity shoot!! Despite the crazy weather, I am sure it will all be worth it when we see how the pics turned out!!

This weeks focus has really been on the bathroom and getting as much of it done as we can. 

I sterilized all my pump parts, a few bottles, and pacifiers. So we are ready to go in that department. 

Diaper bag is officially packed and ready to go. 

I started making freezer meals, chili and lasagna were made this past weekend. I would like to make up some cookie dough and some potatoe casseroles. 

Belly Button?
In, but unrecognizable. Hard to believe my belly button could be soo small. It's not out yet, but it feels soo different to me! 
 
Wedding Rings?
Off. And I forgot to put them back on for our maternity pics!! Fail!! 

Best Moment of the Week?
Probably our maternity pics!! I am happy to have had the chance to document this amazing time we have had with this pregnancy! I love that we were also able to incorporate the dogs into the shoot as well!! 
I don't have a sneak peak at this point to share, but you can bet I will share one when we get it!! 

Crazy Pregnancy Moment:

Donuts... must have donuts! I have actually given in to these cravings more that I should admit! Double chocolate donuts to be exact. I was a bit disappointed when I went and got more on Friday and they gave me an extra donut of M's, instead of double chocolate! Okay I was more than a bit disappointed, but I let it slide! 

Bump Pic:

Front View:

25 weeks (taken minutes before fracturing my ankle!)

15 weeks:


Looking Forward To:
The bathroom Reno being done, so my nesting self can clean the house!!!
Seeing how our maternity pics turned out!!

I can't wait to see your maternity photos! :)

I have heard {haven't tried it yet} that if you eat a few marshmallows your sore throat will go away?? {Let me know if you try it!}

Yay for just 5 weeks left!! :)

You look beautiful!! I can't wait to see your mat. photos! We are getting ours done on March 1!

All of your donut talk has made me REALLY want a sour cream glazed donut from Tim's! Yummy!

I find your belly looks lower this week? Dropping maybe?

You are so close!! I can't wait to found out the baby's gender. :)

You look great! So glad you are feeling well.

Did you buy bags or anything for sterilizing your pump parts? I completely forgot about needing to sterilize them! I need to look in sterilization options!

Rachel and John said...

I can't believe you are already 35 weeks! And just now redoing your bathroom! You guys are crazy but it seems to be coming together pretty quickly!

Kae said...

Your bump looks sooo amazing! Your mat photos sneak peeks are stunning! You wore my fav polka dot top!

Can't wait for the nursery reveal! I'm obviously so behind on everything since the little guy showed up early!

I'm still having cravings for sweets! Trying to be good though since I no longer need to gain weight! Too funny about the honey incident! Hope you are feeling better.
