34 week update

First, I'd just like to post a quick edit to my "Cankles" update: Those are NOT my ankles!!! Yes, my ankles are beginning to swell, but OMG people, really?? Not mine. And I wouldn't wear those hideous shoes anyway.

Alrighty... now that that is cleared up--

I'm a bit delayed in posting this particular update, but it's been a crrrrrazy week and this is honestly the first chance I've gotten to just sit for a while. So, on to the update:

How Far Along? 34 weeks (and 3 days.)

Best Part of these Two Weeks: Hmm, there have been a lot of good parts-- my work shower, an espresso open bar party at Cafe Kubal (Decaf of course) and our last L&D class were some highlights.

How Do I Feel? Okay, not too bad, but not always good either. My stamina for anything is very low-- even just sitting. Unless I'm reclining or laying down I end up being uncomfortable and achy, making one of my normal days a little more difficult. I'm in a weird place where I'm starting to feel just done with this pregnancy thing, but I'm not ready for the reality of labor and then a baby either. Hopefully I'll swing in the "ready" direction soon.

Cravings/Aversions? I crave mushrooms, but that's pretty much always been the case. Nothing too interesting to report here.

What I Miss: Surprisingly enough, my pre-pregnancy body. As much as I hated it before, I'm sort of ready to have it back. Despite it's various imperfections, it was much more comfy than this one.

What I'm Looking Forward To: I was really looking forward to my shower with friends and family, which has now taken place... I'll blog about it later-- it was great!

Weekly Wisdom: Um... I'm going to have a baby! Holy crap!
