How I'm feeling: Growing more uncomfortable and pretty done with being on nights. Most days I do feel ok, but my energy and positivity are definitely weaning. Luckily this is my last week of nights!!! I don't know how women with twins do it. My belly feels big enough already to make me uncomfortable bending over and laying down, hard to imagine being bigger. But, I have 6 weeks left, so I guess I better get over it huh?!
Fetal movement: Lots. And lots of hiccups. I am usually reassured by it because it means this kiddo is practice breathing, but when I get a brief moment to take a nap at work and the baby decides to do karate chops and get the hiccups, I get a little perturbed. Seriously though, I am very thankful for a healthy babe in there.
Weight gain: 21 lbs
Wearing wedding rings: yep
What I'm most excited for today: Holding this baby. I am starting to feel ready. Granted, I do want to cook to full term, I am now actually starting to feel mentally prepared to have this baby. I think anyways. I love me some newborn baby snuggles
What I'm most afraid of today: I've brought this up before, but now that my baby is getting closer to birth, the thing that scares me the most are full term fetal demises or stillbirths. Hence, I bite my tongue anytime this baby decides to move, mid sleep or not.
Cravings: Cereal. Got myself some fruit loops yesterday and they were delicious :)
Anything make you sick: Not that I can think of currently
Miss anything: Doing anything and not having braxton hicks contractions all the time. Literally anything I do, I have them. Walk, have them. Full bladder, have them. They aren't painful in the slightest, but it will be nice to get back to having a tight tummy from my own muscles, rather than from my uterus contracting like an apple.
Wouldn't be my blog if I didn't have a bump picture in scrubs right?!
Left is from Vi, Right from this baby
This was a picture from last pregnancy of Scott when I was 34 weeks, with a very dirty mustache.
