35 weeks...

I'm a little late on my 35 week update.  Luckily, I don't have pre-eclampsia just a lot of swelling and I mean a lot.  Feet, toes, ankles, legs, knees, hands, etc.   It's actually quite painful.  I'm trying to stay off my feet but I have so much to do around the house and want the house perfect and clean for the baby's arrival.  She's still breech so if she doesn't turn I'll be having a c-section.

Symptoms I felt this week:
  • Breasts itchy, rashy Sore on and off
  • Tired and out of breath
  • Back hurts badly
  • Hard to move around.  Getting out of bed is an ordeal
  • Belly popping out.  J's comment "You're huge"just what every woman wants to hear
  • Very full belly and very tight sometimes.  Cramps on and off
  • Baby kicks and movement all over.  Stomach sometimes moves when she moves.  
  • Sleeping issues a lot
  • Stomach hard.  Baby is still breech. 
  • Lot's of swelling all over

34 weeks...

Well, had some issues this past week.  My legs don't look like my legs at all.  Legs/feet are all swelled up and hurt.  Dr is running tests to make sure it's not pre-eclampsia.  I don't think it is. BP is still really good.  I've been feeling like crap though.  I think it's because of the pain and not being able to sleep.  I'm currently on bed rests till the tests come back in.  Feet up and no walking around at all except for food and bathroom.  Trying to finish up any administrative work I have that's so I don't have to worry about it.

Symptoms I felt this week:
  • Breasts itchy, rashy and getting sore again
  • Tired and out of breath. 
  • Back hurts badly
  • Hard to move around.  Getting out of bed is an ordeal
  • Belly popping out 
  • Very full belly and very tight sometimes.  Could be Braxton Hicks.
  • Baby kicks and movement all over.  Stomach sometimes moves when she moves.  
  • Sleeping issues a lot
  • Stomach hard.  As of last U/S, baby is still breech. 
  • Lot's of swelling in the legs.  Currently on bedrest

33 weeks...

So I'm going to my twice weekly NST's and also had an MFM U/S last week.  Baby is doing great.  They think she weighs about 4 lbs which is on target.  My weight is on target.  My Blood Sugars are doing okay.  Now, my back is hurting all the time and I get pain after I eat.  Doctor thought it was my gallbladder but when I mentioned I had pain after I had glucose tabs she thinks I have gerd.  She said take Pepcid twice a day.   I'm kind of ready for her arrival.    I've put in for my disability so I should be ready when the time comes.
