Sweet Pea - 35 weeks

We are almost to full term sweet girl! I cannot believe it! Only 5 short weeks until you are due!!! AHHH!! So much excitement, nervousness, unknown, but we couldn't be more thrilled to welcome you!

Baby Changes:

You dont have much room to maneuver now that you are over 18 inches long and you are about 5 1/4 pounds. You are about the size of a honeydew melon. Because it's so snug in mommy's tummy, you are not doing lots of kicks and somersaults anymore, but you are still kicking the same amount. It just feels more like small rolls. Your kidneys are fully developed now, and your liver can process some waste products. Most of his basic physical development is now complete and you will spend the next few weeks putting on weight.
 

 Movement: You like to kick after I drink something really cold, eat sugar, or at night. You also like to just hold elbows, legs, etc. in one spot and stick it into mommy. I usually have to move you.  

Cravings: This week I am craving chocolate, shakes, and of course all sweets. Pizza also sounds really good this week! 
Sleep: Good and a lot! Although it is getting harder because I am getting more uncomfortable.
Symptoms: Some nausea still. There will be a smell and trigger the nausea I had in the first trimester. I am also just sore a lot. My back hurts a lot of the time and my hips and leg are pretty bad.

Daddy update: Daddy is getting pretty nervous! He is a little scared to have a girl :) I keep telling him he will be fine and you will have him wrapped around your finger! :)

News:
  We had spring break this week for a few days. We hung out at home and did some cleaning and going through things to get ready for you. We also took big brother to the aquarium on Friday and he loved it! Saturday we went to a birthday party and it was a jump zone. Brody was very afraid of them all. Maybe you might be a little more fearless than him :) We cannot wait to meet you and get to know you sweet girl. We pray for you every single day. We love you with all our hearts! Your room is coming together but not done yet! I am excited to get it done for you!

Days until due date: 35 days - 5 weeks

I cannot believe it is such a short time until your arrival!!! We are so excited but so nervous too! ;)

I Love You Sweet Payton! Mommy
