Baby Girl at 34 Weeks

Still the size of a honeydew and will be for the next couple of weeks.

Major Milestones:


  • Baby is now approximately 18 inches long and weighs about 5.25 pounds.

  • Fat starts to accumulate in the arms and legs (love those baby rolls).

  • The eyes open when baby is awake and close when she is asleep.

How's mama doing? Maternity clothes? Yep! Movement? Her movement is much more fluid and less like little jabs. She will put more pressure and roll her feet and hands and legs along my stomach. Feels really weird! Stretch marks? Oh yes... moving on. Sleep? Like a rock! Not sure what happened but now it's like I can't get enough. Symptoms? Same ole, same ole... swollen feet and tired. Last week for two days in a row, I forgot to take my acid reflux meds that were prescribed to me by my doc... never ever ever again. I can't imagine what it would be like going through this pregnancy without that medicine. I was miserable. Ick! Food cravings? Been craving more veggies and fruit lately. Love love LOVE Chappy's Brazilian Chicken Salad! Food aversions? Still no thanks to heavy desserts. Labor signs? Nothing to write home about. I think she plans to stay in there for a while longer. What I miss? Besides the normal things like wearing wedding rings and being able to shave without losing all ability to breath... I can't complain. Best moment of this week? J FINALLY seeing her move from the outside.
