alud lang syne. farewell 2013

How far along? 34 weeks
Total weight gain/loss: 28 pounds (current weight 164)
Maternity clothes? Yes
Stretch marks? No
Sleep: as good as it gets right now. pillows are my friend. peeing is my foe. 
Best moment this week: hearing that beautiful heartbeat. We have been changed to Loma Linda for high risk pregnancy due to my breathing, this is a good thing being that my throat is 60% or more closed at this point. Some are saying c-section will be needed because I may not be able to breath through labor, but I should hear more from new Doc next week. Being home with our pups and just trying to rest has been really nice this week. 

Worst moment this week: We came down with just about everything from pink eye to bronchitis, sore throats, aches and wheezing. Peeing with every cough or sneeze has been a low point as well =) 
Miss Anything: Energy and breathing capacity. There's many things I want to get done but I have very little energy or breath to do so. 
Movement: Yes! We had your NST appts, seeing your kick counts means you are a happy baby and you are a good little mover. 
Food cravings: Cereal and sweets still
Anything making you queasy or sick: I can't stand the smell of my Burberry perfume that I have had forever. I keep trying it thinking I will like it again but not happening. 
Have you started to show yet: yes
Labor Signs: No, however Docs ask if I have felt any contractions and I keep saying no, but today with the NST they did say I am having a few....who knew!?! guess those are the few kicks where I stop in my tracks. First timer again, I just thought baby was trying to get my attention =) 
Belly Button in or out? same same but different
Wedding rings on or off? on in the day, off at night
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy and excited, (and tired) but we are in the final stretch. Almost there baby!

Weekly Wisdom: just breathe, relax and enjoy
Looking forward to: 2014 and Getting the house ready for our baby girl!
