Baby Watch: Week 35

Well, week 35 hasn’t seen much action.  Although my trip to the doctor this morning confirmed that her head was still down, it also showed that everything else was status quo.  I think she’s a happy little camper.  Lots of food, warmth, and sleep.  Why would she even want to think of leaving all that for the real world? 

I’m finally creeping up on that “ready to get the baby out” stage that I’ve heard so much about.  There is this one special muscle in my back that, no matter how much I twist and turn, has decided to stay constantly tight.  The tiredness level is increasing. This morning I fell asleep sitting up while talking to my mom; I even started dreaming.  I’m also growing out of my maternity clothes and my socks are too tight.  Fun times!
