Here we are: Week 34

Yep, I'm at 34 weeks this week. As I was lamenting at how uncomfortable I've been and how sleep is such a chore, I began to wonder if I felt like this when pregnant with Seth. I don't remember being this uncomfortable at all. So I had the brilliant idea of looking back in my blog posts to see if I ever talked about such things. To my surprise, I found this:

A brief update
This week marks the 34th in this pregnancy. How do I feel? Um, 34 weeks pregnant.

Sleeping is becoming a chore, or better said, getting comfortable with my 4 pillows each night is a chore. In between trips to the bathroom, my night consists of readjusting to find a comfortable position where my hips or back don't begin to ache. Fun, right? Let's see, putting socks and shoes on to go for a walk is comical. I'm getting real close to needing Evan's help with this.

Yesterday was another check-up at the doctor. Nothing new, still measuring big. How big? At 34 weeks I'm measuring 38. Any bets on whether this baby gets here before his due date?

Wow! I couldn't believe how my words were exactly what I would write today. Guess I did feel the same way. Then I looked at the date of that post: August 22, 2007. Um, yikes! Seth arrived only eight, yes, eight days after writing that. Whoa. Makes me get just a leeeeetle nervous about the next couple of weeks.

Anyway, went for a check-up today. Belly is measuring only one week ahead (was measuring 38 at this point with Seth). Everything else is fine too. They informed me that at the next visit they would do the testing for Strep B. I managed to escape that last time since Seth came before they had a chance to do the test...wondering if that will happen again?

Here's to hoping I make it through Thanksgiving and the travels out of town!
