{ 34 Weeks Prego... }

 
34 weeks and going strong...not! j/k! I realize things could be much worse with this pregnancy but they are getting more and more difficult each day. I think I've been having Braxton Hicks contractions for at least the last third of my pregnancy but it's been a little harder to tell because I've been so tight from the beginning but they have become much more apparent the last few weeks. They started intesifying the afternoon of the exact date marking 34 weeks and only let up when I sit down. If I don't sit down, my stomach stays rock hard. Super uncomfortable. I did a urine analysis at work and thankfully I don't have a UTI or anything wrong in that aspect. Maybe this is how my pregnancies with girl will be? Maybe this is how the rest of my pregnancies will be in the future? Who knows.

I have 6 weeks left and have already gained the total amount of weight I did with Wyatt. I'm betting baby girl is going to weigh more than Wyatt did but I've kinda been thinking that from the beginning. We'll find out in 6 (hopefully) short weeks!

My appetite is still about the same. I've come to want meat more and more as my pregnancy has progressed. Nothing like a good ol' fashioned cheeseburger or chicken strips right? I definitely eat more while I'm at work. I try to eat something for breakfast before I leave in the morning, a mid morning snack, lunch (which where I work I get spoiled pretty good), an afternoon snack, then sometimes I'm so full I don't really eat a whole lot for dinner but usually at least a little something. I haven't really craved one thing at all during this whole pregnancy. With Wyatt I wanted a lot of fruits but this time I feel like my food consumption is pretty well rounded. Except all the chocolate milk I've been drinking : )

Now, we're all kicking things into high gear to get ready for baby girl. Jordan, Craig, Kelly, Macie, and I all went to our storage unit to get some things out for baby girl (bouncer, cradle, diapers, etc.). I mostly just stood and pointed to things that we needed : ) Now it's time to get things washed and organized. Jordan and I have moved into one of the other spare rooms in the basement so Wyatt will now have his own room/play room. I must say I'm looking forward to having all of my clothes in one room instead of my dresser in one and then all my closet stuff in another. Wyatt is loving having a bunch of new toys to play with (ones that Jordan and his siblings all played with as kids). I'm looking forward to being able to get things much more organized and ready but I have a feeling I'm going to run out of energy quick so I don't foresee me being able to get everything done that I want to. I'm sure going to try my best though. Wish me luck!
