how far along: 36 weeks weight gain & stretch marks?: 16 gained, no stretchmarks best moment this week: kameron came to my office last week & surprised me! i work totally alone since the rest of my team is in colorado, so it was a fun break in my boring week :) worst moment this week: waking up at 3:45 am on saturday morning for no reason at all, and not being able fall back to sleep. miss anything?: SLEEPING. symptoms & movement: everything hurts. lots of movement still. cravings & aversions: i needed a brownie sundae yesterday- not really out of the ordinary for me ;) i want absolutely nothing to do with meat. looking forward to: october. it starts on wednesday, just sayin! things to add: i feel exactly how i look in the picture this week. like crap.
how far along: 35 weeks weight gain & stretch marks?: 16 gained, no stretchmarks best moment this week: finishing up my "to get" list for the baby's room! and having a fun little weekend. spending time with kameron when we have nothing specific to do is the best. worst moment this week: nada. it was a good week. miss anything?: fitting in between my car and the trash can in the garage...looks like the trash needs to move until further notice. symptoms & movement: rib pain and headaches mostly. i also don't sleep anymore (or it feels that way). but every time i feel a little jab to my ribcage, i smile :) cravings & aversions: no specific cravings, but aversions to meat again looking forward to: the next 35 days! i know that due dates are just an estimate, but it feels so close. wahoo!!! things to add: only 3 weeks left of work until i go on maternity leave! not that i'm counting.
how far along: 34 weeks weight gain & stretch marks?: 13 gained, no stretchmarks best moment this week: beating iowa on saturday :) worst moment this week: nothing i can think of specifically! miss anything?: just the usual symptoms & movement: rib pain, headaches, sleeplessness, and braxton hicks. movement has slowed down a little but i still feel it plenty...i think boo is running out of room in there! cravings & aversions: craving fried rice and cold things again. no specific aversions looking forward to: our hospital tour this week things to add: need to go apologize to the t-shirt in this picture...clearly it needs to be retired until further notice.
how far along: 33 weeks weight gain & stretch marks?: 13 gained, no stretchmarks best moment this week: seeing boo for (maybe) one last time on the ultrasound screen! worst moment this week: when we were tailgating, someone told me that they didn't like capone. you know my mama bear claws came out. miss anything?: feeling normal symptoms & movement: rib pain, being constantly hungry, being incapable of putting on my own shoes. so much movement that sometimes i feel like an elbow is going to come busting out of my belly button cravings & aversions: craving pumpkin pie blizzards from DQ...so good. aversions to brats still, and spaghetti maybe. looking forward to: watching the iowa state game this weekend & my friend annie's birthday party! things to add: currently taking bets for how long my belly button can hold on to it's "innie" status...we are looking pretty shallow and it's freaking me out
how far along: 32 weeks weight gain & stretch marks?: between 12-15 gained, no stretchmarks so far. best moment this week: the return of college football! worst moment this week: feeling the aftermath of not drinking enough water after tailgating for a whole day miss anything?: just the regular things at this point- not getting winded so easily, sleeping through the night, etc. symptoms & movement: being constantly tired and rib pain. still lots of movement, especially the past few days! cravings & aversions: not craving anything specific right now unless you count lots of ice water. major aversion to brats all of a sudden...super inconvenient for tailgating! looking forward to: our ultrasound on thursday things to add: our due date is officially next month!! eeek i am so beyond excited! :)
