Q: 35 Weeks...
asked by: Eyes Wide Shut on December 27th, 2007

Ok, so I'm now 35 weeks preggers. Insane...

I have my next appt on New Years Eve...after my dentist appt.

I KNOW I've gained about 5 or more lbs...in *2 weeks*. I mean, with Christmas, and left overs...MAN!!! It's just HARD!! Especially being this far into my pregnancy...I'm starting to get hungrier and hungrier!!

Oh well, I'm proud of the weight I HAVEN'T gained this time!!

I am, though, getting nervous as my 37th week QUICKLY approaches. For those that don't know, I had Oni at 37 weeks and want DESPERATELY to make it to/past my due date.

Baron is REFUSING to have sex with me. And it's a RARITY that I want it, and he won't give it to me!!! In fear he's going to make the baby come! Rolling Eyes
I keep telling him that MILLIONS of women have sex until the day they're due to MAKE labor come...it's all about chance. (even though he's been pulling out my entire pregnancy...he's STILL nervous!)

Mreh, I'm doing laundry today. Washing BABY CLOTHES!!!! And I'm going to be packing my bag when I get home!!! It's crazyyyy!!!

wow that is crazy! Good luck with going past your date. I was 37 with Chyanne, and Sophie. But that's not for all people. I hope you can make it past that. And the sex thing.. yeah i NEVER wanted it in the whole pregnancy except at the end, and he wouldn't give it to me either. In fear he would hurt me, or the baby.. LOL now he's really huring cause i won't give it up UNTIL i have some BC. Cause i hate condoms lol.

I LOVE your avatar!! She's precious!!

I'm hoping that this lil baby can wait to meet us!! We're TOTALLY not ready!! LOL!

We still don't have their room set up! (her and Oni will be sharing a room.)

We have to make the crib into a crib again. We changed it to a toddler bed for Oni about 6 months ago.
Thank GOD my mom got Oni a DORA toddler bed for Christmas!!! That's one less thing we'll have to buy.

It's just really hard to think that there is a good chance I'll have a new baby in 2 weeks!! AHHHH!!!

I know what you mean. I feel like I am still at the depressed point because I was told I wouldn't be able to do it without medical assistance. Look at me now though. I'm 34 weeks today and Brina has hung inside this long thankfully. I'm getting more confident that we will make it full term (37 weeks). I very confident that we can make it to 36 weeks. The longer she stays in the better it is for her little lungs and entire body. I still can't wait to see her though.

Maybe you'll go to 38 weeks Sarah and then I'll be full term so we can deliver on the same day. Have you been having problems with not feeling full. I swear there's no telling how much I've gained in the last two weeks. I'm not drinking anything but water from here on out. I was already drinking like 80 oz a day anyways but I'm cutting everything else out. I don't want to get chewed out for weight at the next appointment. Then again, not being able to work or go out of the house much kinda helpl you pack on the pounds.

It sucks that you'd get chewed out about your weight.
Even with Oni, when I gained 60lbs, I never got chewed out. I guess my Dr. felt like I knew the damage I was causing already, he didn't need to rub it in anymore.

ALthough, I sometimes wish he HAD chewed me out!!! I might not have gained so much.

I've been in pain lately. The bowling ball feeling will NOT let up!! I waddle. Sad

I KNOW I shouldn't eat past 7pm. But I have been lately.

I know that starting Jan 1, my weight gain will be NADA!! EXCEPT for what baby gains!!! No more leftovers and no more holidays to worry about!!!

People think I'm crazy when I say I would LOVE to go past my due date!! LOL!

I know what you mean about leftovers. I haven't been able to get full today and all we have here is junk food and leftovers. I just called Brandon and told him to bring me some darn fruit home before I look like a beached whale! LOL! It's been insane going through both of these holidays pregnancy.

I know exactly what you mean about the whole bowling ball thing. Brandon likes to make fun of the way I walk now. I try so hard not to waddle when I walk but there's no denying it. I walk like a penguin now.

LOL!! I had to go through all the holidays with Oni too...SUCKS!!! LOL!! I wasn't this far though..I was more like 5/6 months at Christmas!

I love being pregnant. Buuuut, I don't like my belly stretching and getting more stretchies!!!! I didn't think I would get any new ones...but I guess I was W-R-O-N-G!!! LOL!!

It's hard to believe that she's like 5 1/2 lbs now!!! No wonder we're waddling!!!

Okay! It was just yesterday you told us you were pregnant again. What the heck? Are you really at 35 weeks already? Have I really been on this forum for longer than a year? Oh my!
