Weekly Update - 34 Weeks
6:00 AMSize of Baby: According to BabyCenter, baby girl weighs as much as a cantaloupe.
Big Sister Cameryn: She's ready to be the big sister, that's for sure. She cries about once a week because it's taking too long for baby sister to get here.
Total Weight Gain/Loss: +15 I lost a pound since my last update, but have actually lost 3lbs since my last appointment at 32 weeks.
Maternity Clothes: Yes, though at home I'm still wearing regular clothes and I've snagged some of Chris' t-shirts.
Gender: Girl
Movement: All the time! She's also decided to call my cervix home, which can be extremely uncomfortable and causes me to waddle around like a hunchback!
Sleep: Not great. Tylenol PM is my BFF when I am not taking phenergan for nausea!
Symptoms: Nausea when I am tired and late at night. The normal aches and pains of being pregnant. I'm still dilated to 1cm but am now 50% effaced. Perhaps we'll have a May baby??! My doctor said that she's not that concerned if I deliver early and since I am already 50% effaced, there's really no way to "stop" labor and at almost 35 weeks? There's really no need.
What I Miss: Non-maternity clothes. I look at my small stack of maternity clothes and my closet full of "normal" clothes and I think to myself, only 5 1/2 more weeks until I can wear all of my pretty things again!
Cravings: Raw veggies and fruits! I cannot get enough of them!
Best Moment This Past Week: The bumper finally arrived! It's been on backorder for two months and I felt like the room was somewhat complete when I added it to the crib.
What I Am Looking Forward To: A baby shower! My friends are the sweetest and are throwing me a baby shower next weekend. I wasn't expecting one, at all, but they are just the sweetest things. Stephanie is throwing the shower, at her house, the same day that she returns from a 5 day cruise. Seriously, awesome.
