36 Week Bumpdate!

Hey Everyone!! Today I am sharing my 36 week Bumpdate!! This past week has been so exhausting and I find my energy levels dropping quicker and quicker as these weeks go on.

Current Cravings: My cravings this week have not really changed from last week. I still crave sweet things but more and more I find myself craving things that are bubbly! Thank goodness for Sprite Zero because without it I am not sure what I would be drinking along with water.

Current Ache’s and Pains: While the back pain continues, the swelling has finally caught up with me! For weeks everyone has commented on how lucky I am that I haven’t swelled at all. Unfortunately, it has caught up to me and most of my shoes are not currently fitting.

Sleep: Sleep has been a little bit better this week and I am not sure if it is just getting better on its own or if it is just pure exhaustion! Either way, I am thankful to have been able to sleep a little more and feel slightly rested.

Maternity Clothes: As I said last week, I am living in maternity clothes but I also have reached a point where some of those shirts are getting a little short. One of the newest items I purchased was a dress for a baby shower my work family threw for me this past weekend. This dress was from amazon and super comfortable. I received quite a few compliments so I would highly recommend it if you are expecting. The best part is that they do have it in a variety of colors.

Aversions: For some reason meat is suddenly an aversion this week. It isn’t too bad and I can still tolerate it in small portions but thinking of it turns my stomach a little.

New Updates: Right now I am dealing with quite a bit of frustration regarding doctors visits and how to schedule visits. I am hoping to figure that out this week so we have a more clear plan of how things are going to go moving forward. This week there is not really any updates outside of frustration so hopefully next week I will have a better update!
