Week 35 - 8 Month

I'm 35 weeks pregnant today which leaves 35 days until my EDD...and I'm 35 years old so a good number day!  This week has been fairly simliar to last week.  I'm fairly uncomfortable and have a hard time getting up.  Even when I roll over while lying down it hurts.  I have that feeling in my pelvic floor like I've been hitting with a baseball bat.  I feel our little guy punching me in the hip bones a lot!  My belly is getting a little more itchy but nothing too annoying.  Natalie asked me today where my belly button is!  :)  I've also apparently started snoring the last few weeks. It's a good feeling though that I'm now 8 months pregnant and starting my last month!

I did get my scheduled c-section date moved to Friday, March 9 at 9:45 a.m. -- 4 weeks from today!  I feel better about this day than the 14th.  I like that his birthdate may end up being 3/9/12.  My last day at work is tentatively March 6 so that will give me two days before my c-section to spend some one on one time with the girls. 

I'm almost done decorating the nursery.  I'm just waiting on the changing cover I ordered and then it will be ready!  I've also cleaned out the closet which needed it and washed all his clothes that we have for him.  I'm planning to get all the baby gear out this weekend and go through some of the girls old clothes to see if I have any gender neutral items I can use like onesies.

Our baby is around five and a half pounds now! The fat accumulations plump up the arms and legs this week. Our baby has gotten big enough to take up most of the uterus, and there's less room to move around. The testes have completed their descent.
