"What's new this week? Your baby is clocking in at five pounds and could be as tall as 20 inches by now, and the vernix (the white coating protecting your baby’s skin) is getting thicker. This week, a boy's testicles start making their way down from his abdomen to their final destination: his scrotum (look out below!). While about three to four percent of boys are born with undescended testicles, it's nothing to worry about — they usually head downtown before junior turns a year old. In other baby-related developments, those tiny fingernails have probably reached the tips of his fingers by now — and getting ready for that first postpartum manicure."
How far along? 34 Weeks
Maternity clothes? maternity & comfy clothes...
Sleep: Meh, it's hit or miss. Heartburn and baby practicing for the Olympics don't help but again, SO thankful for the body pillow!!!
Best moment this week: Sharing Maternity shots, and Thanksgiving!!!
Miss Anything? Being comfortable. And being able to have a drink.
Movement: SO much. I think baby needs to move out soon before I start bruising. I start crying sometimes when I can't get him to settle down and I'm exhausted haha.... I did find out I can sometimes rub my belly for like 10 min and then he will go to sleep :)
Food cravings: Sweets :-/
Anything making you queasy or sick: Hamburger and pastrami. And anything gross makes me want to vomit in an instant.
Gender: Boy!
Symptoms: Back aches, hip aches, feeling as though my bones are LITERALLY bendy in my lower back... super creepy. Heartburn before bed....
Belly Button in or out? I feel like it may be losing the battle... usually one little part of it is sticking out....
Wedding rings on or off? on
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy! I wrote a letter to baby the other night when I couldn't sleep and got so excited and happy thinking about his arrival! I hope he is (safely) early cuz I just can't wait any longer!
Looking forward to: baby's arrival! =)
HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!! Hope you all had safe travels and yummy food :)
