Lima Bean: Week Thirty Four




How far along: Thirty four weeks as of Wednesday, June 4, 2014. 
Size of baby: Lima Bean is almost 18 inches from head to heel and weighs about 4.75 pounds.  She's probably hanging out a bit above that, though.  At this week's doctor appointment, she was measuring on schedule.
Maternity Clothes: Yep. 
Movement: Lima Bean is a mover and a shaker!
Sex of baby: It's a girl!
Sleep: Better than last week, but not great.  I wake up several times a night to use the bathroom, and sometimes I have trouble falling back asleep.  I don't remember having this problem during Henry's pregnancy, so it's a bit of a bummer.
What I miss: Not having my uterus press on my bladder constantly--ha!
Cravings: Salads.  I usually don't crave salads, but they have tasted so good lately.  There is a place across from my office that has a salad with grapes, dried raisins, walnuts,  and bleu cheese (I sub parmesan) with a vinaigrette dressing.  It is so delicious and worth the $8 price tag. 
Symptoms: Getting a little more uncomfortable, but no real issues.
What I'm looking forward to: Getting everything in order in Lima Bean's and Henry's rooms.  Now that they are painted, I am itching to decorate.

Extras: My wonderful Aunt Lois and mom threw me a baby shower this week!  It was so sweet of them and not expected since this is baby number 2.  The shower was held at an inn close to my aunt and uncle's house, and the weather was spectacular that day.  We had the upstairs to ourselves and the rooms had wonderful views of Sugarloaf Mountain.  I had a great time visiting with family and friends, and Lima Bean was spoiled with some cute girly items!  My Uncle Tom took photos, so hopefully I can post some soon.
