Brayden always had the hiccups and i'm pretty sure that's what you feel too.

Haha it's crazy because when I was pregnant with .Bray I had a doctors appointment and he did the routine heart checking thing and it was too slow so we all got all worked up and he had me get an ultrasound asap so when he was doing the ultrasound we could see on the screen that it was the hiccups and you could see braydens little belly going up and down from them and it turns out thats what the doctor heard on the monitor and I just couldnt feel them yet.

So cute <3

I personally would stop working at 34 weeks being in retail and all. Retail seems like hard work, especially all that standing. I worked until 36 weeks but I didn't walk much. I mainly sat on my butt. I work in schools but I am not a teacher; teachers have it hard.

My lil' one had hiccups all the time towards the end. He always seemed to get them when I was trying to fall asleep!!

I worked until the day before I went into labor and I was miserable. I really didn't have any choice though. I was all swollen and my legs were giving out and stuff. Since you have a choice and it seems to be getting harder for you then I say stop at 34 if you want. Trust me it's worth a hell of a lot more to be comfortable during those last few weeks than the amount of the paychecks. If I had had a choice I would have stopped earlier.

I hope to be able to work as long as possible, but I don't have a choice either. My job is not physically taxing at all, but mentally can be stressful, but I love it!!!! Laughing
i couldn't imagine being on my feet for long periods of time. When we go shopping for the day I am absolutely miserable, because my feet, legs, and back kill me.
It isn't good for you to stress your body out, and if you have the choice between working and not, than I wouldn't work.

I love it when the baby gets hiccups, but I don't understand why it happens so much in the evening.

I think it just depends on what you feel comfortable doing.

I know your situation financially and all... So I know its not really possible to quit *now*... But tell them you need a stool to sit on at work behind the register.. They are supposed to accomodate you as best as possible... Make them!
