Pregnancy Update!

How Far Along? 34 weeks & 4 days w/ 38 days to go
Total Weight Gain? 27 lbs.
Sleep? Getting very uncomfortable... I wake up to turn from one side to another every 2 hours or so.
Best Moment This Week? Hearing from the doctor that I'd only gained 2 lbs... and my appointment was right after a heavy lunch at Olive Garden so maybe I really didn't gain any :)
Worst Moment This Week? All of the times I wake up with aching hips and have to roll over
Movement? Lots of movement still
Belly Button? Poking out a little bit now
What I Miss? I missed being able to drink a margarita on New Year's Eve
What I'm Looking Forward To? Dressing Reid in all his cute clothes and taking thousands of pictures
Weekly Wisdom? Drink more water.... stay away from salt.
Milestones? Able to identify specific body parts... a few nights ago I could feel two seperate little feet kicking from outside my stomach

Sounds like you are doing well! I am having the hip problems too. I'm just at 34 weeks and I too have gained just about as much as you. I have a few extra pounds from before though so trying to figure out if it's a foot moving is still tough for me : ) The sleep thing I've given up on. As long as I keep a pillow behind my back it helps me not move around as much but everyone is different yes? They have told me I have gestational Diabetes which I wasn't surprised since it runs through my family but its a total lifestyle change until the little one arrives. Hope things get better sleep wise : ) Does everything seem like a chore? Story of my life!
