How I’m feeling: Pretty good. Sleep is getting really uncomfortable. I wake up at least 4 times and my mind is racing. Cankles are just a reality at this point 🙁 Somehow through all of these physical ailments, and despite my nonexistent patience, my spirits are still pretty high I am in the last month and I can’t believe it! I’m so excited and nervous!
Work: It’s been pretty calm on the workfront. It’s the begining of the school year, so my classroom is still organized. I met the long term substitute yesterday. She’s certified to teach art, so I am very relieved that my kids and materials will be in good hands while I’m gone.
Rings Fitting Fingers: Snugly
Belly Button Status: Smoothed out!
Cravings: Apple pie, Nutella on anything, wavy Lays potato chips
Aversions: asparagus (still), onions, broccoli
Baby is the size of: a coconut
The baby at 35 weeks:
- Now, his hearing is fully developed, and he responds best to high-pitched noises.
- If it’s a boy, his testes have probably fully descended.

I can’t get over how fabulous you look!!! I’m glad the sub is certified- that must take a huge chunk of stress off you. 🙂 I’ll have to stop by and see you and baby when I’m home at Christmas!!
Mindy@FindingSilverLinings says
So glad to hear from you!!! I was talking to Michele yesterday about you. I’d love for you to come over and meet the baby when you’re home! Can’t wait to hear all about your new life 🙂
Ashley @ DesignBuildLove says
I seriously still cannot get over how amazing you look Mindy! I cannot wait to see the final nursery reveal and virtually meet your little bundle of joy! PS- I think I might be “almost” ready to have babies… let’s get that schooling done!
Mindy@FindingSilverLinings says
Thanks Ash! Nursery is aaaaalmost done! Um, just get pregnant. Everyone is doing it 😉

I’m 33 weeks and still have days where I feel great and other days that I just feel tired. I teach PE/Health so now that I’ve been back at work a few weeks, I’m starting to feel a few aches and pains here and there by the end of the day. Working out seems to give me some energy back so I’ve still been doing that and so far haven’t dealt with swelling. Biggest craving now is fudge pops and anything ice cold! Have you been feeling like your stomach is the size of a pea lately? I’m carrying really high and everything just feels squished!
Mindy@FindingSilverLinings says
Yes! I order everything on the menu, then I’m done after 3 bites lol! It’s so weird! Um, fudge pops are amazing. Sounds like we crave the same stuff! My tummy started to drop *insert mini panic attack* this week. It’s crazy that in a few weeks, I’m going to be a mom. Just insane. Thanks for checking in!!! I love hearing about your pregnancy 🙂

Mrs. Limestone says
I know its already been said but you look AMAZING, GORGEOUS, HOT. Glad to hear you are in high spirits.
PS: Ive been getting up every 1-2 hours for months so I would happily take 4 times a night right now. I guess its good baby training.
Mindy@FindingSilverLinings says
Hi! Thank you so much!! I agree. It’s pretty crazy how nature works to prepare us for getting up in the middle of the night for the baby. Thanks for dropping by 🙂 I can not wait for your nursery reveal!!!
Michelle @ Lifewithacrazypup says
SO CLOSE! You look stunning by the way 🙂
