aka this is my 35 week post and according to my Target baby registry there are 35 days left until my due date.  So close and yet so far!  Once I hit 37 weeks she is welcome to come on out!

Total weight gain? Now I’m up +5 lbs which is .8 from last week, baby is supposed to gain a half a pound a week and the lady average is a pound so I’m trying to tell myself that’s a good thing.  Last week I felt good about weight gain and this week I’m feeling like a pregnant cow haha, oh hormones, you are a crazy bitch!

Sleep: Still okay, I’m going to start implementing a bedtime because I’ve been getting tired in the middle of the day.

Best moment this week? Nate getting to feel Abigail kicking around and nudging at him, he loves it!

Movement?  She’s still going strong, yesterday she was pretty mellow which was nice.

Labor signs? Braxton hicks, cramps and I started losing my plug.  Could still mean weeks but it’s nice that my body is starting to do something.  Neither of us believes Abby will go overdue like Nate but I know it’s possible.

Belly button in or out? Staying in.

What I miss? Not waddling.

What I’m nervous about? Nate being away from me while I’m in labor and then us being separated while I’m in the hospital.  He has entirely too much energy and won’t be able to last very long in the hospital room, this also means Chris and I don’t get that family bonding time with baby that we had with the birth of Nate.

What I’m looking forward to? Having everything in place for baby except for the baby.

Also, we have a baby pool going on, cash and prizes to the winner!  Info you may need, Nate was born at 42.5 weeks, 9lbs 2oz, 20.25″.  He is blonde with hazel eyes.
