34 Weeks
How far along: 34 Weeks
Total weight gain: About 17 pounds
Maternity clothes: I finally found a pair of maternity jeans that actually fit pretty decently. Other than that I'm still wearing my old pants with the belly band and a mix of maternity and regular shirts.
Stretch marks: Still holding out on this
Sleep: Sleep is terrible. I find it so hard to get comfortable at night and once I finally fall asleep I wake up often. When I wake up I feel wide awake and have a terrible time falling back asleep.
Best moment this week: My best friend had her little girl, Claire. She is so so sweet. It was great to be able to visit mom and baby. I loved snuggling the little one.
Miss anything: Being able to lay on my stomach...I feel like this would greatly improve my sleep.
Movement: I don't think this little one ever stops moving. Baby has also taken to jabbing me in the side with their elbow or knee...it is quite sharp and rather painful!
Food cravings: Nothing too crazy...but I did quite enjoy all the Thanksgiving food.
Anything making you queasy or sick: Nope!
Gender prediction: Mom-boy Dad-girl
Labor signs: I have a couple Braxton Hicks contractions every day now.
Belly button in or out: In
Wedding rings on or off: On
Happy or moody most of the time: Happy-especially with a week long break from work!
Looking forward to: Seeing the little one!!

32 Weeks
How far along: 32 Weeks
Total weight gain: Probably right around 14 pounds.
Maternity clothes: Just shirts mixed in with my regular clothes.
Stretch marks: I'm still avoiding this one...for now.
Sleep: Sleep is pretty terrible at this point. I am getting more and more tired as the 3rd trimester goes on, but falling asleep is difficult-as is staying asleep for any length of time.
Best moment this week: The weather is getting more and more fall-like and creeping towards winter weather. Normally this would depress me a bit, but I am so excited for winter to get here because that means its time for baby to be here too!
Miss anything: I miss being comfortable. It is rare that I can find a comfortable position for longer than 15 minutes or so.
Movement: Baby is still moving and grooving all the time. I suspect movement will slow down a bit in the next couple weeks as room runs out.
Food cravings: Well for the past few days it has been Twix bars...Halloween candy is so hard to resist.
Anything making you queasy or sick: Nope
Gender prediction: Mom-boy Dad-girl...although he is not as definite as he was before
Labor signs: Just a random Braxton-Hicks contraction here or there. Nothing serious.
Belly button in or out: In, although it does get pretty flat depending on baby's location.
Wedding rings on or off: On
Happy or moody most of the time: Happy
Looking forward to: My best friend is due with her baby in 6 days...I can't wait to meet that little girl!
