34 Weeks

Size of Baby: The size of a durian (???); almost 18 inches long and about 4 3/4 pounds

Maternity Clothes: Mostly maternity clothes. I found a few spring things in my regular clothes that I may be able to wear for another week or two. As far as shoes go, I may only be able to wear flip flops from here on out. I went and bought another pair this weekend for that reason.

Gender: It's a girl--Sidney Katherine (we're not real sure if we will just call her Sidney or Sidney Kate)

Belly Button In/Out: In

Movement: She's starting to slow down some. She's most active when I get in bed at night. She does not like when I lay on my left side.

Sleep: Every night is different. Some nights it's easy to get to sleep, others not so much. I'm still getting some sleep though.

What I miss: Sleeping on my stomach; simple, mundane things such as bending over easily or putting my shoes on easily; not going to the bathroom every 20-30 minutes

Cravings/Aversions: No aversions. Anything has sounded good this last week.

Symptoms: Backaches and tired feet, all depending on what I've done that day and where/how I've been sitting. My feet (mostly my left foot/ankle) have started to swell some.

Best Moment This Week: Another good check-up. We will have another ultrasound at our appointment in 2 weeks. And ordering a few things for newborn photos!

What I am looking forward to: Continuing to work on her bedding and her room--it's coming along (slowly). This week I'm working on the bumper and bedskirt along with painting a few things for the room.
