02-2-2009 - Update 34 Weeks

My mood while writing this blog: Ok

I haven't updated for a while because nothing has really changed in my pregnancy until now. Even then, the changes are small but I thought I'd update anyway. My pregnancy has been going great so far. My low back kills a lot of time but nothing I can't handle. I bought some really great Nike shocks that I am in love with, they are so comfortable, and some lululemon pants that are so comfy (my first lulu purchase). I'm also having a bit of tingling/numbness in my upper ribcage at the top of my uterus when I sit for too long. This acid reflux sucks, ew!

My husband and I are doing great in the relationship department. He has been more helpful and more excited about the pregnancy. He phoned me at work the other day to tell me that one of his co-workers was going to give him some baby stuff and he was explaining it all to me. It was so cute! It made me very happy :)

My last doctor's appointment went well, it was on Friday, January 30th. My doctor was unable to tell the sex because feet and knees were in the way, again. Kind of disappointing but oh well, I don't mind not knowing 100%. She measured my fundal height and this time I asked what I was measuring. She didn't want to tell me, she said "don't ask silly questions". I'm measuring a week-and-a-half ahead. Doc also mentioned I have gained 5 lbs in 2 weeks, so that's an approximate weight gain of 30 lbs in total, yuck, and I still have 6 weeks to go. So because I'm measuring bigger and I've gained 5 lbs in two weeks she said I should stay away from sugar, like juice, because it goes straight to the baby and that's what makes the baby big. I don't drink juice anyway but I do love sweets so I'm staying away from baked goods and candy. She told me I don't want to have a big baby and I don't :) Who knows, maybe she was just saying all that to scare me. Hope everyone's pregnancies are going well and those ttc'ers get prego soon!

I had my maternity photo shoot this past weekend as well, it was so fun! I cannot wait to get the pics and post a few on here :)
