| Belly shot this week, it was getting pretty late in the week and I hadn't taken one yet, so photo booth photo it is :) |
Size of baby: 2 pounds and about the size of an eggplant
What's baby up to? Sucking the life out of me, just kidding! He's still kicking and moving around in there, and working on packing on the pounds. Still needs to almost tripple his wight before the big move out happens.
Total weight gain/loss: +21 lbs. Trying really hard to not pack on much more and started a food diary. Ugh.
Pregnancy symptoms: Heartburn, swelling, heartburn, swelling, heartburn, swelling. Oh and I swear I had some Braxton Hicks contractions last weekend. Part of my stomach got all tight and felt like a leg cramp, but didn't really hurt.
Maternity clothes? Yup, but still able to wear some non-maternity stuff.
Stretch marks? No
Sleep: Going as good as to be expected I think. I still sleep pretty much all night with just a few interruptions.
Best moment this past week: There were multiple... First, baby C got me a mother's day card, clever little guy already. It was very sweet and may have made me tear up.
We also had a great visit with little miss Olivia and my sis-in-law. Hard to believe just a year ago she told us she was expecting.
And lastly, I got a good laugh out of this.... I've been giving the hubby a hard time about getting me a push present (it's a real thing, I promis!) and the other day we were in Lowe's and he said, "Come here, I'll show you what you can get me for a drive present." I was of course confused and asked the question, "What the heck is a drive present?" To which he replied, "If you get a push present, then I get a drive present for driving you to the hospital."
Miss Anything? Being able to go up a flight of stairs without getting winded.
Movement: Oh yes.
Food Cravings: I've become a big fan on Carolina style bar-b-q lately. Oh and I'd like to eat a gallon or two of frozen yogurt everyday.
I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE mexican food and with a side of salsa on everything so when I went to a work lunch and it was Mexican, I ate the salsa as I normally do... my love turned into hate and pain about an hour after lunch. Should have know better, tomato based sauce WITH onions in it - what was I thinking? I'll blame it on the pregnancy brain, but I dont think I'll be making that mistake again.
Anything making you queasy or sick: The thought of wearing a bathing suit this summer.
Labor sigs: No
Belly Button in or out: In but it's starting to make it's move. I can see my scar from the laparoscopy surgery way better now.
Wedding rings on or off: On
Happy or Moody: Happy
Weekly Wisdom: Start getting on the ball with the nursery and classes... seems like it's far away, but the time will fly and you never know, baby might come early. I've also been amazed how fast our weekends have filled up so it got tricky scheduling classes and hospital tours.
Looking forward to: My birthday is tomorrow, 31 here I come. We are also doing the maternity ward tour at the hospital this Thursday.
The fabric swatches came in a few weeks ago and these are the 3 main patterns I've settled on. Placed the order this week and going to put mom to work on making the bedding soon!
