Weekly Update

How far along? 35 weeks

How big is baby? 17.2-18.7 inches and 4.2-5.8 pounds! That much be why my belly feels heavier and heavier and getting out of bed is proving to be more and more difficult!!

Total weight gain? As of yesterday, according to the Publix scale, I've gained 24 pounds. I can tell the difference in the way my shorts fit (even my maternity ones) and the fact that my rings are snug enough to the point where I won't risk wearing them on my fingers anymore because I fear getting them stuck!

Maternity clothes? I refuse to buy anything at this point. Truthfully, she could come at any point so why run out and buy something for 5 weeks? It just doesn't make sense to me. 

Stretch marks? None. I' have been very fortunate to not have any thus far in pregnancy. I'm hoping because it's so late in the game I won't get any at all. 

Movement? She is still rolling and making waves in there. It also sometimes feels like she is shivering which is an interesting feeling for sure!

Cravings? Still nothing really. 

What I miss? Nothing really. Sleeping on my stomach if I had to pick one thing. 

What I am looking forward to? Meeting her of course and not being pregnant any more. I am trying my best to enjoy every minute of it because I am sure when she is here I will be lamenting the time I was pregnant but last night I was just done. I was so hot and she just felt so heavy and every movement was proving difficult that I was just done. It's gotten better today by far so I am hoping that it stays this way until she comes. 

Oh and this! School starts tomorrow with the kiddos. I have two different classes and I am nervous after meeting the kids I did on Friday. I think I had about two-thirds of my homeroom come to open house and most of the kids from my partner teacher's homeroom at least came and introduced themselves as well so I met most of my kiddos. However, after seeing some of them and talking to their parents I am anxious. I have to keep in mind that God hand picked this kids to be in my class for a reason.
