I’ve literally been saying the same thing each bumpdate, in shock at how close we are getting! How is it that we seriously only have 6 weeks left in this pregnancy. Here we are 34 weeks and 1 day! Baby is currently the size of a muskmelon! I have a lot to share with you all!
How are you feeling?!
If you have been following along this far you already know I’ve been pretty much sick throughout the whole pregnancy! I guess I hit the lotto! Don’t worry this isn’t the case for everyone! Heartburn has increasingly gotten worse the closer we are getting! Yikes!! This baby is going to have a ton of hair!!
Emotionally I have been pretty relaxed and calm throughout the whole pregnancy! I recently started to get really nervous, scared, excited, sad and happy. Its a rollercoaster of emotions and I don’t think anyone can prepare you for it! Know it extremely normal! Reality is starting to set in. The whole process is scary! It’s the unknown as a new parent of what to expect and how it will all go. Trying to plan really isn’t an option you literally are just waiting! I cried after our 32 week appointment after she told me the baby was already facing down. This scared the crap out of me! I’m terrified about how this baby coming out of my body. Again this is normal from what everyone keeps telling me! One minute you feel like biting everyone heads off and the next minute crying! So many emotions!
Having a great support system has been a God sent for me! Between my husband, my family, my friends and even my co-workers, I am extremely thankful for them all! They literally keep me sane! No joke!
Changes
There’s been a lot of changes! Where do I even start?! One of the biggest like I mentioned has been the emotional roller coaster I feel like I am on! The increased heartburn, feet swelling and braxton hicks have already started! I’ve gained about 8lbs and am starting to feel huge !! haha! Sure you other momma’s out there can relate! At 34 weeks pregnant you’re body is preparing itself for the baby to come! Smells; I have become even more senistiive smells during this third trimester!
Craving’s haven’t changed much for me! Cereal and Ice Cream!!!
Insomnia has officially set in! This has been one of the harder changes! I can honestly tell you that it feels like I am no longer sleeping at all! Maybe it’s God’s way of preparing us for these late nights with a new born baby!
I have completely stopped working out which was little hard for me! I started having really bad stomach pain after we got home from AZ, that lasted for about two weeks. Talk about scary we thought we might be going into preterm labor and spoke with our O.B. about it. She had recommended that I stop working out and lifting anything heavy.
