34 WEEKS

I'm 34 weeks 1 day today :)
Yesterday I had another prenatal appointment to check on little miss Kate.
She is doing well. I am measuring 33cm at the moment, which although still a little on the small side, puts me back in the 'normal' range, so there aren't any concerns about her growth anymore.
The OBGYN just thinks she'll be a petite little thing... in fact, the Dr I saw yesterday said that she's gonna guess after palpitating my belly to feel Kate that she'll be about a 6lb (2.72kg) baby...
UM... sure, OK! LOL... I'll believe it when I see it on the scale at her delivery... I can't imagine going from 8lb Luke to a little 6lb thing. haha...
My guess is that she'll be smaller than Luke, but not under 7lbs
I was only a 6.5lb baby, but after having Luke, I think Jake and I are just 'designed' to make bigger babies. LOL

She's been squirming and moving a LOT lately, and I'm thinking she's kinda a scrawny, boney little thing, cos good grief, am I getting some sharp jabs... I don't remember Luke actually hurting me when he poked me with a limb, so I guess his bigger, chubbier size and limited room in my belly made for softer, more padded prods and pokes. LOL

All in all we're doing well. I'm feeling quite tired again, and my hips hurt quite a lot but it's really all just third trimester 'complaints' and ailments I suppose. And soon enough little miss Kate will be here and it'll have been all worth it.

Here is my 'much smaller' 34 week belly (I'm not looking at the camera anymore, cos my face is starting to get some third trimester chubbiness, lol)
