34 weeks

*Note to self: don't wear stripes anymore. haha. especially horizontal.

*Note about baby milestones: thanks babycenter: 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. YAY. even though i have not been nervous about preterm labor it is comforting knowing that she WOULD do great. but keep cooking little one!!

yes i did darken my hair and yes it did go a bit darker than planned, but i am loving it still.

HAPPY THURSDAY!!

some other things for me to remember: love my compression socks- really help with standing on my feet all day and NO swelling- otherwise swelling is beginning. My ring still fits at the beginning of the day- but then just gets uncomfortable so i bought a fakey- simple diamond band. i have definitely been cooking and cleaning a lot- trying to organize the house but it seems like nothing fits anywhere... ITCHING to get my sewing machine out and sew some stuff..

Weekly wisdom: take naps when i can, and be nicer to my sweet husband who helps me ALL the time but especially during the nights when i get up to pee or just roll over and need to move my body pillow with me he always helps me so i don't pull the covers completely off and he lets me throw the covers on and off multiple times a night, even last night after a few hours with no covers he said i felt cold and covered me back up and snuggled with me and he doesn't even remember doing this all through the night :)
