34 Weeks

I went to the doctor last week and everything is still going good. My only real complaint is my back. Sleeping is becoming unbearable, as it seems like I wake up every 15 minutes to switch positions. The bright side is, once the baby is here, waking up every few hours will be like heaven!

The doctor and I discussed that at 37 weeks, I will go in for a final ultrasound to determine the size of the baby. Due to having a "flat pelvic bone", if the baby is much larger than 7 lbs., the doctor recommended having a scheduled c-section. Scheduled c-sections are typically done at 39 weeks, so there is a good chance the little one will be born sometime Thanksgiving week.

I'm still procrastinating, but I have made some progress. The furniture & bedding have been purchased and the room is almost cleaned out. Now it's time to get the walls painted and get everything moved in.

I'm definitely starting to feel like a beached whale, as you will see in the picture below... Is there a fast forward button to Thanksgiving week?
