35 weeks now

Yikes I am 35 weeks! i feel like I am 40 weeks pregnant, but i am sure I wouldn't be saying that if I knew what 40 weeks felt like. I am just very uncomfortable and itchy! my belly itches so much! especially around my belly button! Ok so i know that this next thing that I am going to say is going to make you crazy....... I got a stretch mark )= I managed to make it all the way through my last pregnancy without any, but this time I am stretching further i guess and my skin just can't take it. I know that most women get them, but i was just hoping i could be one of the few chosen ones (= but seriously no one besides my husband will ever see them, so it really doesn't matter at all. It is in my belly button so i am interested to see how that will look once my belly isnt stretched so much.Gwen 35weeks2.jpg

This is our latest name we have thought of..... Valin Jude.... any thoughts? do you think that the meaning of a name is really important? i mean of course if something meant death, i wouldnt want my child to be named that, but how important is the meaning when picking out a name to you? if you have any thoughts i would like to know. (=

By the way Valin means "monkey king" (= if you spell it Valen it means "strong" ....justin was pretty excited about the monkey king thing (=

Monkey King fits in the Bodeutsch family. Dad might be scared of him though.

I love your maternity clothes! That said, I think I like the name...it's unusual (I've never heard of it before...which makes it great!) and I think you should spell it so it means monkey king...can't you just hear him bragging on the playground to the other kids..."I am the MONKEY KING!!!!!" ...awsome

I'm not one that relies heavily on the meaning of a name. I'm with you and wouldn't name my child something if he's name meant death, but I'm not particular about it having an awesome meaning or anything.
I like the name Valin but I think I like it spelled Valen better. I just like the look of it more.
