Baby # 3 - 34 Week Bumpdate

Due Date: 8/8/2014

How far along: 34 weeks! 

How big is baby: Approx. the size of a small pumpkin

Weight gain: Think I'm at 35lbs, we'll see tomorrow

Sleep:  Has been ok, still major heartburn and just the uncomfortableness of being large.  Also had a terrifying experience this weekend - I woke up from a dead sleep gasping for air and choking, I shot out of bed and ran into the bathroom then started to cough like crazy, it sounded just like a croup cough and I couldn't catch my breath, it was so scary! Finally the coughing stopped and I spit up tons of acid and my throat was burning and every time I swallowed it tasted like complete crap! This has happened 2 other times but never as bad as this time so I finally googled it and read tons of other woman who have experienced this while pregnant (also people experience this while not pregnant) - it's called laryngospasm - WebMD that and you will be shocked at what is it! The entire description of it on WebMD is exactly what happened to me.  I started taking Prilosec last night to hopefully avoid this from happening again, so praying that will work! Also praying that once I deliver these crazy acid reflux/heartburn symptoms go away and I never experience this again!

Best moment of the week:  Getting the email that my Etsy custom quilt order has shipped for the baby! I cannot wait to see it in person!

Movement: Yes!

Food cravings: I was craving Lou Malnati's pizza so the hubs and I took the kids there for dinner Saturday night, it was sooooooooo good. 

Food aversions: Nope!

Maternity Clothes:  Yep! Some shirts are getting too short which means I am getting so big! 

Wedding rings: Off

Symptoms:  Heartburn and my carpal tunnel is getting worse by the week.  Oh and lots and lots of braxton hicks. <---  Once again, the same!

Stretch Marks: None 

Belly button:  Half in, half out, and very big and stretched out!

Gender: A sweet girl!

What I’m looking forward to:   The 4th of July, spending time with family, and hopefully getting some stuff done around the house in anticipation of the baby's arrival

What I miss:  Not having heartburn or these crazy laryngospasms!!! Seriously I want my old self back, along with a cold Corona in my hand :)

Next appt: 7/1/14
