Here you are 35w 5d and growing. 

With only a month I am getting a little restless. All of my DIY projects for you are coming to an end and your nursery is complete I am trying to stay occupied as much as I can. My best moment this week would be the Belly Cast Party, now you can see how "big" you really were in moms belly. I also found out that I had Gestational Diabetes, I was told we have a "chubby" baby. This coming week we will find out more.


How far along? 
35week 5days

Total weight gain?
Total weight gain so far is 30+lbs.

Maternity clothes?
Above I have a mens (daddies) white t-shirt on. I have been wearing these quite often these days. With the wormer weather I was able to finally wear more maxi skirts. The one above I bought a few months back from Old Navy Maternity.

Stretch marks?
Well, I did spot what I think are stretch marks above my right hip. Sense I can't see from my waste down I can't tell what they are. I did get a little upset at first, but really I am ok with it.

Sleep?
I have been taking Unisom to sleep. It doesn't help me fall asleep or stay asleep it more helps with me falling back to sleep when I get up on an average 2 hours to use the bathroom. He is most deffinatly getting bigger I am pretty solid so its hard for me to lift myself up from bed and move.

Best moment this week?
My Belly Cast Party, it was so so nice to feel like myself again laughing with my friends. They also got to see our new home. I have the most amazing friends to all come together and give me a dose of the single girls life, updates on their life and help me survive the wait... it was nice.

Miss anything?
Being able to eat whenever and whatever I want. Oh and my identity back!

Movement?
At night while I lay in bed on my side I can clearly see is little feet move. I love it, its like our time together :) look ahead for the video!

Food cravings?
I don't have any cravings, but I did do some testing this week and I didn't pass my glucose screening test for Gestational Diabetes. Meaning I have to see a specialist because I do in-fact have Gestational Diabetes.

Gender?
We have a name!!!! It is.... _________ William Bowling... We are not telling the first name :)

Labour signs?
No, but I feel like I am always on alert.

Symptoms?
My Heartburn is not as bad or I am just used to it. I have Oedema still, some days I can see it on my fingers and in my face, but it is always in my legs and feet. Like I said above I have Gestational Diabetes they found out late in my pregnancy so I have to take a crash course into what to do and how to handle it. Look ahead to find out. Another addition, I am itchy, really itchy all over all the time.

Belly button in or out?
It is an innie but also an outie. Look ahead for pictures.

Happy or moody most of the time?
Annoyed and worried.

Looking forward to?
Finding out more about Gestational Diabetes and what I can do about controlling it.
