I am 35 Weeks and have 35 days to go!


How ironic with the days and weeks! We had a great Christmas break with my parents, and Megan and Blake. We relaxed and got a lot of sleep and reading accomplished, as well as a new outlook on how to live a healthy lifestyle. I'm really committed this time but so far I am left with one big damper! Sickness!!! I have a sore throat, cough, fatigue, slight headache and a body temperature that won't make up it's mind. I have so far been up to 99.0 which isn't really a fever and then down to 97.9. Whatever. I'm just trying to do the things I can do just sitting around with out over doing it. I have been doing my homework and taking occasional breaks to nap and relax. I first thought my sore throat was due to some heartburn that was the worst I have ever experienced and for the longest duration. Unfortunately it wasn't just heartburn and is now just full blown sickness. Anyway, so I worked out the day before I got sick and have been doing well with eating but I wish I could go to the gym! I made a whole new gym workout playlist to get me pumped and now I just have to wait and wait for this sickness to get on with it. Oh well. So I had a Dr.s appointment on Monday at 8:40AM and the doctor said Grant's heartbeat is strong and I am measuring what I should be. I am now 194 lbs and that means I gained 6 in three weeks. I'm not sure if that is good or bad but the doctor didn't say anything about it so I guess I'm fine. Also he dug his hands deep into my pelvic cavity on my lower abdomen and told us that Grant's head is down! Yay! That's good news because he was supposed to be head down by now ready for labor and delivery. I have another appointment in a week and a half and at that appointment I will have my Strep B test. I also can't forget to give the doctor my birth plan so that he can know my requests if possible. Anyway so that's what's been going on. Oh yeah and I have non painful contractions all of the time! They are annoying because I always have to pee when I get them. I feel like they happen often but I don't feel like it's preterm labor or anything. But I guess if I do get more than 4 in an hour I should probably at least call the doctor to make sure I'm fine. Anyway, so above is a picture of me at 34 weeks. I was showing off my hair, and I guess my bod but mainly my hair since I actually took the time to do it.
