Today I am 35 Weeks pregnant, 35 Days to go. I had a doctors appt and everything was pretty much perfect. BP = 117/72, (Baby's) HR = 147/minute, Fundal Height = 35-36 cm (weeks), baby is head down.
Normally I would start going every week at this point, but I talked my doctor into letting me skip one more week. I go back on the 22nd. Then it will be weekly.
I am still feeling pretty decent. I get random aches and pains, random swelling sometimes, but nothing that has stuck or been a chronic/consistent problem. I am still even sleeping relatively comfortably (knock on wood). I got my hair cut earlier this week, had her take an extra half inch, told her I didn't know when I would be back (normally I go about every 2 months). Baby is getting bigger every day, kicking me in awkward places, stretching, rolling, and in general being interesting.
I keep getting comments at work that I "look ready to go!". They annoy me. Don't short change me! This baby is supposed to cook for 5 more weeks, and I guarentee I can get bigger than I am. I actually don't feel big at all, which is probably why I keep doing things like running my belly into people in crowded spaces and thinking I can bend/reach more than I can. For the record, I am currently 194 lbs (per the doctors office). This is roughly 40 lbs above my pre-pregnancy weight. I would like to stay below 200lbs this go round... we will see what happens though because I don't plan to take any actions to make the difference haha.
Speaking of which. I am addicted to donuts. At least I am still taking the stairs at work? (6 stories up).
That is all I have got! Everything is going well, crossing my fingers it continues to do so.

So glad to hear everything is going well. This next month will fly by and go really slow all at the same time!
