The nursery is no where near even started yet, and won't be until my roommates leave around December 15th! So here's to hoping this little guy stays in until at least December 15th.
I am getting more and more stretch marks on my belly (super sad face). I am starting to feel really tired/fatigued and getting pains at night when I sleep. Overall, I am no longer comfortable and I am officially tired of being pregnant. I wore my first maternity pants this week. They were size small and still too big, but so comfy! I am so glad I got some, because I really felt like I was being strangled in my normal pants. I still haven't worn any maternity shirts, but I think I may need to soon as I only have like 3 shirts that will fit over my belly without it hanging out and making me look like a fat slob lol. Back pain also started this week. I have been having it at night mainly, and it is making sleeping hard and very uncomfortable. I really hope that its temporary and goes away soon.
The excitement is definitely setting in now! All though I am also kind of frantic/worried that everything wont get done in time with my apartment and the nursery. I am definitely in full blown nesting mode.
34 Week Update (from babycenter.com)
"Your baby now weighs about 4 3/4 pounds (like your average cantaloupe) and is almost 18 inches long. Her fat layers
– which she'll need to regulate her body temperature once she's born –
are filling her out, making her rounder. Her skin is also smoother than
ever. Her central nervous system is maturing and her lungs are continuing to mature
as well. If you've been nervous about preterm labor, you'll be happy to
know that babies born between 34 and 37 weeks who have no other health
problems generally do fine. They may need a short stay in the neonatal
nursery and may have a few short-term health issues, but in the long
run, they usually do as well as full-term babies. "
