Still feeling great, but climbing stairs with a toddler on my hip is getting to be a bit of a challenge. I had my 34 week checkup this morning and the Doc says the baby’s head is down and everything’s looking good. Eggroll #2 is definitely a mover and a shaker… some nights I wake up to him attempting to kick me inside out! And those round ligament pains are still killer. I get them just about every morning, at around 5:30 or 6am. Talk about a rude awakening. Thank goodness they only last a few seconds. Other than that, I can’t complain. Most days are wonderful, but I do have days where the most productive thing I’ll do is brush my teeth… at 2pm! I’m not sure if my lack of energy is because I’m carrying a boy this time, or because I’m chasing a toddler around… either way, I’m winded! Buuuuut… I’m not quite ready to take on a newborn just yet, so he can bake in there as long as he wants. Six more weeks to go… we’re almost there!

Thanks! I don’t get leg cramps, but the round ligament pains in my abdomen. They’re killer!
