Week 35 Bumpdate



The details:
*Camden is now the size of a coconut! His hearing is fully developed! His kicks and huge rolls hurt after a while, too, now. Rocky even gets startled by some of his kicks when he's cuddling with me, haha. He's so active that I've started to wonder if this kid sleeps ;) Not to mention, the frequent need to pee when he's all pressing on my bladder...
*Doctor checks my cervix for progress next week!! I'm already really antsy/excited about it!
*Cravings? Cold and fresh, anything. It's like a repeat of my exact cravings from the 1st trimester! I can't get enough of: smoothies, fruit (craving oranges big time lately-some days I eat 3 of the little cuties!), chocolate covered frozen bananas, yogurt, etc.
*He has been getting the hiccups almost everyday for the past couple weeks! Billy felt them the other day, too.
*Overall, I still feel pretty comfortable (except getting in and out bed-woof!) but I'm definitely OVER wearing maternity clothes. Over. them. completely.
*No swelling yet!
*Officially "on a break" with the gym! I put my membership on hold, but am still planning on going for walks here and there and doing some small exercises at home.
after my last gym workout...


*Labor Signs? None yet except the normal Braxton Hicks that I've noticed are happening much more frequently. I'm also really starting to think about those upcoming contractions that are ahead of me. Since this is all new to me I'm over here like, "what will they feel like?"..."when and where will it happen?! Will I be at home, work, or out running an errand?"... "will I even know when I'm in active labor?" So many questions! I suppose it's all a part of the baby waiting game that everyone talks about (I should mention here that I'm never good at waiting...)
Other important things to note:
*Enjoying: Driving around with a car seat in the back of my car (it's installed and ready to go!), sleeping in while we still can, and that I'm still feeling good! Thankful for that! *Disliking: My entire wardrobe....itching to wear my normal pants and tops again! *Random happenings:
Baby booties. This personalized name blanket. MUST HAVES!!
I cleaned all our bottles and my pump parts last night. Loving this Boon Lawn countertop drying rack we got as a gift...
I'm resting and relaxing a lot more lately. Billy has been such a big help, too. Actually this entire pregnancy he has been amazing and I haven't given him enough credit!
I've started asking family and friends to make guesses on what day they think Camden will make his arrival, so I can see who (if anyone) will be right!! I'm weird like that and like to hear people's guesses!

So far I've got.....

Billy-Jan. 9 (one day LATE!)
Me and Jackie (my sister in law)-Jan. 3
My Dad-Jan. 4
My stepmom AND best friend Lindsay-Jan. 5
Steph-Jan. 2
Kevin (my brother in law)-Jan. 6

Soooo...it looks like most people think I will go into labor a week early. I'm really surprised no one has guessed a December baby!?! And in this case, I hope everyone is right and he holds off until Jan!
*Looking forward to: The BIG doctor's appointment next week and having a little boy to love on, and call our own, soon!!

Now can I ask for your help mama's? If you have any recommendations on what to pack in our hospital bags (or what NOT to pack), leave it below in the comments!

I'm off to Pinterest in the mean time to give me some answers about this... ;)
