{35 Weeks}

This week has been a quiet week. I am feeling him move constantly and he is always pushing up against my belly. When I look down I can see where he is lying because it bulges out. It brings a smile to my face knowing that he is alive and doing well. One of my favorite things to do is pat the little hard parts on my belly. I hope he loves it just as much as I do.
I hate being sick while pregnant. I am already tired and my energy level isn't that high. Then add on being sick and it totally zaps my energy. I got sick Wednesday and now it's Friday and I am still not feeling back to pregnancy normal.
I started to crave pumpkin; pumpkin cookies and pumpkin pie. Also, a yummy turkey dinner.
I haven't been very surprised about my cravings. They haven't been anything out the ordinary. It's been things that I normally eat and enjoy.
My sweet husband will lightly run his finger across my belly and when he does this it not only tickles me, but it will tickle him also. He will start kicking and moving like crazy. Maybe, he will be ticklish like his mom.



Baby's Growth....
Your baby doesn't have much room to maneuver now that he's over 18 inches long and tips the scales at 5 1/4 pounds (pick up a honeydew melon). Because it's so snug in your womb, he isn't likely to be doing somersaults anymore, but the number of times he kicks should remain about the same. His kidneys are fully developed now, and his liver can process some waste products. Most of his basic physical development is now complete — he'll spend the next few weeks putting on weight.
