My Pregnancy Journal for Baby #2: Week 35

Baby at 35 Weeks:



Baby BOY is as big as a Coconut!


Now his hearing is fully developed and he responds best to high-pitched noises. His testes have probably descended by now, too.




 My Symptoms: Contractions... getting uncomfortable, but still could be Braxton Hicks. Rolling over in bed is really hard, and getting up from lying down or from a seated position sometimes hurts. 

Maternity clothes? Yes, and I don't hate it like I did last pregnancy :P

Sleep? I'm starting to have difficulty staying asleep due to hip pain and rolling over is extremely uncomfortable.

Best moment last week? When my mom came and helped me out with Agnes and did all the cooking and cleaning. Even though I felt horrible just taking it easy, it was so nice to have her taking care of me again and spending time with her. Every time I have to say goodbye to her, I always end up sobbing, but it was still so nice of her to be here.

Movement? SO MUCH! He loves his movement and his hiccups :P


Weight Gain: Last weigh in at the Doctor's was 160 lbs. Still the same for the past 3 weeks. Not bad.


Cravings: No real cravings. I'm just hungry a lot for snacks and when I do eat, I just keep on eating.


Food Aversions: Still Cilantro and Basil. I guess a lot of the common spices like Oregano, Cumin, Parsley, etc. are on my list of aversions. That hasn't changed and I haven't found any new aversions. I don't think my food aversions will ever change, pregnant or not unfortunately. (this answer has not changed the whole pregnancy...)

What made me cry this week: My mom leaving after a week long visit to take care of me while I needed to take it as easy as possible.

Medical Stuff: Saw the Dr. last Wednesday on June 17. All seems well, baby's heart rate is normal and so is my health so good good! The next appointment is June 24.

Something I am excited about: Meeting this little guy in hopefully at least another 1-2 weeks!

Something I am anxious about: Contracting again like I did the other night. I refused to go to the hospital and just went to bed after drinking a lot of water, but at one point they were 8-10 minutes apart... scary.
