29 weeks

How far along? 29 weeks

Size of baby: He is about 15 inches long, 2.5 pounds...about the size of a butternut squash

What's baby up to? Baby has tiny eyelashes, fine eyebrows, and ever-lengthening fingernails, but his internal organs are doing the most work this week.

Total weight gain/loss: +23 lbs

Pregnancy symptoms: Heartburn and my veins aren't looking good, especially by the end of the day.

Maternity clothes? Yup

Stretch marks? I am very, very sad to report that I'm starting to see some changes here. I think they are just small spider veins on my stomach, but I def got something going on. I was REALLY hoping to get away with no marks, but looks like genetics is winning this fight. I was way more upset about it when I discovered them than I thought I would be.

Sleep: Going ok, but am defiantly hotter at night and it's making it harder to sleep.

Ta-da! Baby C's crib

Best moment this past week: We put together his crib! And it wasn't half as bad as I was expecting. Quite simple really. It really is starting to look like a baby is going to be living in our house soon.

Miss Anything? My normal shoes. I broke down and wore a pair of crocs to work on Wednesday. O.M.G. Who am I?

Movement: A LOT. I got to see him move for the first time this past Wednesday morning. It's very extraterrestrial looking, but very cool.

Food Cravings:  Almond milk, frozen yogurt and lots of fruit!

Anything making you queasy or sick: Lots of stuff makes me sick - I'm amazed at what gives me heartburn. Things I would never have thought. Like chocolate and bananas. I do fine with chocolate flavored things, just not the real stuff.

Labor sigs: No

Belly Button in or out: In

Wedding rings on or off: On

Happy or Moody: Happy

Weekly Wisdom: Drink lots of water, a gallon a day! Apparently dehydration commonly causes preterm labor!

Looking forward to: 3D ultrasound is later today. We'll get to see him on the big screen, get the popcorn ready!
