34 Weeks


Here I am at 34 weeks with Baby boy 2, and as you can see no wedding ring can be found....reason being is that it's so dang hot and I swell. Tyler and I agreed that we didn't want to have me have the ring cut off if it got too tight, so no ring for now. :( Which is sad, but I had to let you know, so you didn't think something else was going on! It also does not look like I grew in the last 6 weeks, but I have, and I feel it! 

My doctors have been keeping a close watch on this little boy, and wanting to make sure he doesn't get too big. I had a sonogram 3 weeks ago and baby boy was in the 60th percentile for weight at 4 lbs. 1 oz. So no worries, except my doctor saw me last week and was saying that I didn't look very big. But with Spencer I didn't grow very large either. I held him real close, and probably looked like what I do right now when I gave birth to him. It was a surprise to us all that a 9 pound baby could fit in there. So, yes I'm still sure this boy will be big, even though I'm not sticking out much for other people. For me, I feel like I'm already over due. 

One other thing about this picture is that I'm 90% sure I was having a braxton hicks contraction while the photo was taken. Normal, but trying to smile when my tummy is getting tight, not so easy. 

So far this pregnancy has been very different from my first, lots more little aches and pains. This boy is also WAY more active than Spencer ever was, and he gets hiccups more often too. Spencer I could tell what time of day it was because it was always at 6pm at night. This one likes to hiccup during the afternoons, after dinner, after ice cream, oh and his favorite time is right when I'm trying to fall asleep. Other than that, things have been going very smoothly. I washed the baby clothes and blankets the other day and it was so fun to know that in just barely over a month this little one will be here!!! YAY!! We cannot wait to see him, hold him, cuddle him, love him, and kiss him.

I've never had to do pregnancy in humidity. I can imagine the swelling would increase for sure. You look great for having a contraction right then. :)
