35 Weeks ~ July 25th

I'm 35 weeks pregnant and feeling good.  I'm been very lucky with this pregnancy and have not had any morning sickness or problems, but I think that's because it was such a long, hard journey to get here.  The only issues I have now (with 5 weeks left) are swollen hands which led to carpal tunnel, lower back pains (much better), slightly swollen feet if I do not prop them up and sleeping is a little challenging.  I bought a back/belly brace that is really helping me and have been going to the chiropractor twice a week for an adjustment and deep tissue massage so that has made such a difference.  

I can't believe I only have 5 more weeks until Grayson arrives!  He has been moving around a lot, which is so reassuring, but I think he is running out of room.  Can't wait to meet this little guy!!

Here is what BabyCenter has to say about 35 weeks:

How your baby's growing:

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 (about the size of 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.
