Week 34


How far along?  34 weeks

Stretch marks? Nope! 

Sleep: I don't have any issues falling asleep. I'm waking up through the night to pee and started having a hard time falling back sleep :/ 

Best moment this week:  Our maternity photo shoot! It was so much fun getting pampered and having my hair & makeup done. I felt so beautiful that day. The day was absolutely gorgeous too!  I couldn't have asked for a better day. I loved being able to have another special photo shoot with Joshua :) The last time we took photos together was for our engagement session and now it was for our little Jude. 

Symptoms: So I found out at my weekly physical therapy session that my SI joint was very loose which is why I'm having a lot more pain & discomfort in my lower back. I have a new brace that I wear that puts constant pressure on the joint to keep it from shifting around. It really does help with the pain. It's not a cure, but it helps manage the discomfort & pain. 

Miss anything?  Omg being able to just bend down and pick up something off the floor, being able to sleep comfortably, it's crazy how much my bump changes the way I do everything! Oh, and Diet Dr. Pepper ;) 

Baby movement: All he does is move! 

Food cravings: Chips Ahoy chocolate chip cookies, candy, fast food :/ All the bad stuff 

Anything making you queasy or sick: Nope

Belly button in or out? Out! 

Wedding rings on or off? On

Happy or moody most of the time: Excited! He's almost here! 

Looking forward to: Finishing up his nursery :) I love walking in his room. It feels so real, so exciting. All we need is to put him in it! 

Maternity clothes? My bump has definitely grown in just the last few days. I still only have my maternity jeans, and I'm just making my regular tops work. 

Have you told family & friends: Yes, everyone knows! 

Have you started showing yet? Yes! I had my first stranger belly rub encounter :/ I was shopping at Apricot Lane and the young sales associate walked up & commented on my bump. As she was talking she began to rub my belly and comment on how cute it was. She rubbed my belly the entire conversation. Awkward......
