35 WEEKS

Pregnancy Highlights

How Far Along: 35 Weeks

Size of Baby: Hardy is the size of a honeydew melon

(about 5 1/4 pounds)

Total Weight Gain/Loss: Gained 29 lbs.

Maternity Clothes: I'm looking forward to wearing

again what I call "normal people clothes." Nothing

is really comfortable anymore!

Gender: B-O-Y

Movement: Hardy is a very active little boy!

I am a little concerned that he is not

going to sleep at all once he arrives.

Sleep: Pretty rough, but I am fully

prepared for when Hardy arrives. I am

already up about every two hours.

What I Miss: ENERGY...I am exhausted!

I also miss just feeling normal. Every

part of my body hurts.

Cravings: Anything cold since it is starting

to get hot...yogurt, ice cream, Icees.

Symptoms: Braxton Hicks contractions, heartburn,

and a little bit of swelling...funny enough it is

mostly just my left foot.

Best Moment of the Week: Kyle and I celebrated

our 5 year anniversary! I am so thankful for

the years we had together before bringing a

child into our family. I certainly believe the

Lord used those years to grow us as a couple

and prepare us for parenthood.
