35 wks 3 days

Well this week marked the big 35 wks 35 days to go ( now we're down to 32) awww.. tommorrow is officially one month away and it SOUNDS sooo crazy to say we're gonna have our baby girl in one month or less.. i can't beleive it is litterally right around the corner.. We are SO ready for her and can't wait for that day when the dr days, YOUR IN LABOR... AwWwWww...

How far along: 35 wks 3 days

How Big: Your baby doesn't have much room to maneuver now that she's over 18 inches long and tips the scales at 5 1/4 pounds (pick up a honeydew melon).

Weight Gain: about the same as last week, ranging from 9 to 9.5 gained

Stretch Marks:Oh yes.. I will never see a bikini no matter how skinny i ever get. haha

Maternity Clothes: Yes, definatatly ready for a new wardrobe.. Got lots of money to go on a shopping spree after little B comes..

Sleep: I'm definatly getting the pregnancy insomnia, my mind starts to wonder, and then i can't get comfortable, then i gotta pee. ahaha.

Best Moment this Week: Christmas! She got so spoiled already and she's not even here yet..

Food Cravings: Still on the french frie kick.. i think its getting worse!!

Food dislikes: it changes daily

Gender: GiRl..

Movement: You can definatly tell she's getting big and can't kick as much, but holy cow you can definatly feel her move and watch her whole body move from my stomach..

What I miss: Just being able to buy cute clothes.. Can't wait to go on shopping sprees with my little girl!!

Belly Button: Still the same.. i thought it would have popped by now, but still nothing..

What I am looking forward to: My appointment this week... I'm suppose to start my internal exams and start going weekly!!OMG crazy!!

Milestone: Because it's so snug in your womb, he isn't likely to be doing somersaults anymore, but the number of times he kicks should remain about the same. His kidneys are fully developed now, and his liver can process some waste products. Most of his basic physical development is now complete — he'll spend the next few weeks putting on weight.

34 wks 3 days.

Man this week has been a busy one.. Tons of christmas parties and getting things done before christmas, feels like we never have time to rest.. Poor bradon is coming down with some kind of cold and its knocking the poor kid out.. i really hope i don't get it.. As for me, i just feel like i could sleep the WHOLE day. Pretty much none of my shoes fit anymore and when i try to wear any they just swell up even more! it's just lovely..

How far along: 34 wks 3 days

How Big: Your baby now weighs about 4 3/4 pounds (like your average cantaloupe) and is almost 18 inches long.

Weight Gain: i weighed on friday and i was up 9.3

Stretch Marks: They're there and not getting any prettier!!

Maternity Clothes: All my pants, some regular and some maternity shirts..

Sleep: About the same as last week.. its definatly hard.. i take better naps then sleeping at night time.

Best Moment this Week: Just watching/feeling how much she moves.. Its seriously so amazing to feel your baby girl kick and move.. I wish everyone could expeirence it!!

Food Cravings: well this whole craving sweets thing is not good cause sweet = heartburn, so i've had to try to stay away, which is really really hard!!

Food dislikes: it changes daily

Gender: GiRl..

Movement: NoN sToP.. It's AmAzInG!!

What I miss: Being able to breath this belly sure blocks off my lungs..

Belly Button: Still the same.. i thought it would have popped by now, but still nothing..

What I am looking forward to: My next appointment, it was suppose to be this week but due to the holidays it got pushed backed one more, but its the starting of the BIG appointments... awwww

Milestone: Her fat layers — which will help 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.

BeCoMinG a MoMmy...

"A mother's love is instincual,unconditional,and forever"

I can't believe i'm going to have my precious little princess in 44 give or take days.. It's crazy to think how fast time has gone and how slow it has gone.. The day is finally right around the corner and i couldn't be more happier.. Everytime i think of her i can't help but smile and just love her more and more.. She already turns my bad days into good days and i haven't even got to hold her yet! I have so much love for this little girl i can't imagine my emotions when i see her for the first time.. I am truely so lucky to live the life i have.. Bradon is the most amazing husband ever and supports me 100% in everything i do.. The best feeling in the world is being able to trust your husband with everything you have and know he'd do ANYTHING for you without hesitation.. I don't think i will ever be able to tell him how much he means to me and how happy he makes me.. I know how big of a daddies girl i am , my dad is my hero and i look up to him in soo many ways, i'm so happy brynlee is going to have a daddy just like i had, nothing is better then that!! I can't wait for our future with Brynlee and just growing more and more with our little family!! Your our world Brynlee Jo and we cannot wait to meet you!! your loved by so many already!!

This past week you have been moving sooo much.. I felt you hicupping for the first time this last week, me and dad loved it, its so precious!! Your measuring right on track, the dr said your perfect, but we know that already!! You have been sooo good to your mommy.. I got sick one time ( which i don't know if it was from you or not, thinking iron pills) and i have gained very little weight, i hope your getting all the food i eat, cause i don't think its coming to me =) You always let me know your okay in there with a kick to the ribs =) but i'd take a kick anywhere to know your okay!! Your brothers can't wait to meet you and sit in your room with mommy all the time!!
Keep cooking for a couple more weeks so you'll be big and strong to come home with mommy and daddy !!

33 wks 3 days..

Look at me, getting the survery done before the weekend is over.. =)

How far along: 33 wks 3 days

How Big: This week your baby weighs a little over 4 pounds (heft a pineapple) and has passed the 17-inch mark.

Weight Gain: lost a little bit from last time , up a total of 8.2 lbs

Stretch Marks: They're there and not getting any prettier!!

Maternity Clothes: Had to buy a new pair of levis, and a couple longer shirts..

Sleep: i feel like i haven't had a good night sleep forever.. i wake up all the time and never really fall into a deap sleep.. its starting to get hard..

Best Moment this Week: Had her last two baby showers.. they were awesome..I can offically say she has everything we need/registered for.. It's such an amazing feeling to say we're Ready for our princess!!

Food Cravings:Sweets..

Food dislikes: it changes daily

Gender:Our little Princess

Movement: She moves NON STOP during the week days, on the weekends i swear she lets me know like once or twice a day she's doing okay in there.. Its crazy..

What I miss: Well being able to paint my toes.. there looking pretty horrible. haha!

Belly Button: sooo UgLy!! it is soooo long and flat i hate it, you can see it through all my shirts.. so beautiful

What I am looking forward to: Having this baby. haha its definatly starting to get hard, my feet/hands are starting to swell, i'm never comfortable, can't breath.. and the list goes on.. but of course its all worth it and i've been so extremely lucky with this pregnancy.. i'm just definatly ready to have her here in my arms now!!

Milestone: She's rapidly losing that wrinkled, alien look and her skeleton is hardening. The bones in her skull aren't fused together, which allows them to move and slightly overlap, thus making it easier for her to fit through the birth canal. (The pressure on the head during birth is so intense that many babies are born with a conehead-like appearance.) These bones don't entirely fuse until early adulthood, so they can grow as her brain and other tissue expands during infancy and childhood

Food Cravings:Not really a food, but i really truely rather have a huge fountain dr pepper then eat anything...

Milestone: You're gaining about a pound a week and roughly half of that goes right to your baby. In fact, she'll gain a third to half of her birth weight during the next 7 weeks as she fattens up for survival outside the womb. She now has toenails, fingernails, and real hair (or at least respectable peach fuzz). Her skin is becoming soft and smooth as she plumps up in preparation for birth.
