34 weeks and 1 day.

When you're in the 3rd trimester every day counts, so to be exact... I'm 34 weeks and 1 day pregnant now. I went to the doctor today and everything checked out great. I've gained a total of 27 pounds so far. My goal was 30 pounds and I'm crossing my fingers that I can still keep that goal. My weight gain has slowed down this last month so I think I'll be okay.
I'm still measuring 1/2 cm big like I was with Hendrix so maybe she'll come a bit early too. My doctor says I'm on track to have another 7 pound baby. She's still head down and let's me know it with every blow to the ribs. I just picture her tiny toes and feet everytime I feel uncomfortable and it makes me forget all about being miserable. This pregnancy has been relatively easy which I am super grateful for. Besides feeling tired all of the time and being uncomfortable, I have no other complaints.
I feel like I still have an eternity left but at the same time feel like she's going to be here incredibly soon. Oh my gosh, I'm SOOOOO excited. It's been 2 years and 7 months since we started trying to get pregnant so you can only imagine how thrilled we are. What an extremely difficult journey we've been on and it's finally coming to an end. Weird. I feel like I will forever be in debt to my Heavenly Father for giving us 2 sweet little souls.
Here is a picture of my belly this week. (Don't mind the chubby cheeks... that's what happens when you have a really round face.)
