34 weeks - 6 more weeks!

I can't believe how fast these last few weeks are going! As much as I want them to continue going fast, I also want them to slow down a little bit! We still have so much to do (STILL need to organize his closet, wash clothes, BUY clothes, make freezer meals...etc.) and I am so stressed out about it all. I feel like I just don't have the time to do any of it. After a long day at work, all I want to do is lay down on the couch because I am exhausted! Making a baby is hard work!

This week has brought on so many new symptoms, or pains I should say. Monday was pretty rough, I had constant cramping all day long. The only thing that would make it "calm down" was for me to sit down. Walking was next to impossible. I would have to stop wherever I was for me to catch my breath (from the pain and from Caleb rolling SO much to the point it hurt). The pain was so bad in my right hip and it just radiated out from there. Once I got home that night I laid down on the couch for a while and then did a no-no.....we went to BabiesRUs to buy his pack-n-play. By the time we were done with that errand I wanted to cry! I over did it big time and the moment we got home I got in my PJ's and went to bed. I haven't had that pain since then, but I am taking it much slower these days to prevent that from happening again.

Caleb is recognizing and reacting to simple songs now. We play this one song to him all the time, and we're hoping he will find it comforting once he's born. He's also urinating about a pint a day!

Size of baby: a durian - NO clue what that is! (anywhere from 4.2 pounds to 5.8 pounds and over 17 inches long.)

Total weight gain: Still around 25 pounds

Maternity Clothes: All the time for work clothes, but i'm still able to wear my normal PJ's

Boy or Girl? It's a BOY!!!!!! Caleb James

Movement: all. the. time. and getting uncomfortable! lol

Sleep: Sleep is good again!

Anything you miss? Bending over, I cringe and sometimes want to cry when I drop something on the floor. It's down right painful to bend over!

Cravings? mac & cheese, french fries, and hamburgers still

Symptoms: back pain and exhaustion

Any fears? just the normal fears, I so wish I could plan this whole L & D thing.....but no such luck.

Best moment of the week: Getting his pack-n-play all set up! We are now completely done with all the big items. Such a weight lifted off our shoulders!
