We're 34 weeks (+1 day) pregnant today! I feel so good (and gratefully so!) and apart from the normal swollen feet and hands and other minor discomforts, I have no complaints at all.
Highlights of the past week or so include the following:
- At our 34 week sonar we were informed that Miss K now weighs a healthy 2.2 kg and has a head full of hair!
- I learnt that a full day at the mall at 33.5 weeks needs to be approached much like running a marathon: Pacing and regular re-fuelling is key.
If only one could re-fuel on these mid-marathon :) ! |
- I haven't had a day's worth of heartburn and have no trouble sleeping whatsoever. So grateful for that.
- I learnt that heat waves and pregnancies are not a good match at all. Temperatures have been hovering around 102 degrees for the past two weeks - eish!
- Miss K's room is finished and my "hospital" bag is almost packed.
- Exercise has been reduced to a walk with Will and the pups every evening. Even my beloved aqua aerobics causes hip discomfort these days, so I've stopped it altogether :( .
- Will is the most amazing, patient husband ever! I am richly blessed.
- We're slowly, but surely, making progress with Project "Let go of the Stuff". The house is starting to look spacious, clean and open and we're starting to feel a lot better about it all.
- Reality is slowly but surely setting in: I'm going to be a mommy soon! I absolutely cannot wait!
You're looking good at 34 weeks. Wishing you cooler weather for the next 6 weeks.
ReplyDeleteWe had a heat wave during my third trimester as well - so I feel your pain! I hope it cools off!
ReplyDeleteYou look great - and your bump is way cuter than mine ever was. ;)
You look great and ready for this important "marathon".
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! I can't wait to see her little face :) I know you are just too excited!
