34+6 weeks - yaaawwwwwn

Wow its been a while and it would be fair to say i have been pre occupied.

Baby brain has kicked in and with just 2 weeks left at work, my time is spent tying up loose ends and prepping everyone for my going away and proceedures etc. I am oober forgetful and oober tired :)

Health wise i seem to be ok, tested neg for gestational diabetes some time ago now, but a urine infection i  was diagnosed today with also spotted some sugars so i have to have a fasting test again.

Baby was head down at last check and i can certainly feel her burrowing in, my pelvis has started to give way a little again which is quite painful especially at night time. Stretchies have come on my tummy over the last couple months which i kinda expected, but wished and hope they wouldnt lol! But lots of moisturiser helps with the itchyness and soreness - i wasnt expecting them to get sore but guess it figures.

Baby seems to be measuring ok, but doctor today said baby was "sizeable" even though bump measures  in line with dates - eerrrk!!! Bump certainly feels all baby!!

She is moving but not as much as when she was littler (obviously), i kinda miss the flutters and somersaults.
Mentally i still dont think i can believe that i will be a mummy in just a few short weeks!!!

Its been a stressful last tri due to landlord wanting us out asap so he can convert our house to a 4 bed for more money, DH isnt sure what hours he will have come June at work due to changes there and what with my money now reducing due to mat leave, baby will be a welcome guest to perk up our spirits!
