How far along: 35 weeks (just for fun, here is 35 weeks with Arden!)
Size of Baby C: 18 in, 5.25 lbs
Fruit/vegetable comparison (according to Baby Center): Coconut
Total weight gain: 17lbs
Sleep: About to get even better…we just got a KING mattress! I think my giant pregnancy pillow finally pushed Chris over the edge…literally.
Movement: He’s an especially busy guy in the evenings!
Unglamorous body changes: Sciatic nerve pain all the way down with my toe…yeah, I could do without that!
Maternity Clothes? Ohhh yes.
Food cravings: I said I wasn’t going to buy any more candy corn…and then I did…and then my friend Emily brought me some more. Whoops!
What I miss: Just tying my shoes like a regular person!
Anything making you queasy: Does the thought of giving birth without an epidural count? 😉 My platelet count was low at last week’s appointment…I had the same issue last time around, but this was even lower. My doctor isn’t super worried about it yet and said we’ll just continue to monitor…but in the meantime, I’ll be praying for the juice 🙂
Milestones: His kidneys are fully developed now and he’ll be putting on weight the next few weeks. I’m interested to see if he’s going to be bigger than his 6lb 10oz sis!
Best moment this week: This picture…
Looking forward to: Using my garage sale moolah to buy this bambino some clothes!!!!

Such a great bump! And such a cute final pic.
A king sized mattress? ooooh, you're gonna love that!! I'm not sure our marriage would survive going down a size in a bed after being use to a king.

I gave birth last week without an epidural. In all honesty, it was the easiest labor and recovery has been amazing!!! (3rd kid…the first 2 I had the juice). After I felt I could conquer anything!!! My other labors were 10& 14 hrs. This one…less than 3!!! (Its proven the epi slows it down). You can do it!!!!!!
Ashley @ Words About Waverly says
You are ADORABLE!!! BOTH of you … or all three. 😉
