How far along? 28 weeks
Total weight gain: 24lbs
Maternity clothes? The only maternity piece in this outfit is the white long sleeve shirt from Target maternity. The jean jacket is Forever 21 and black leggings are also Forever 21. Boots are Steve Madden
Stretch marks? A few on my hips but they are pretty faint. I've been applying lotion daily still.
Best moment this week: We bought a new couch and new dining area rug! I'm really excited about that and to be finally redecorating. I tend to get tired of things really quickly so it's fun to change it up a bit. The couch was actually an awesome Craigslist find! I'll try to post later and show it off, I'm really loving it!
Miss anything? Sleep. It's hard enough with Vince working nights and not home to cuddle with me, but finding a comfortable position is just a pain in the ass! Literally!
Movement: Tons! He rolls over all the time and it's so funny to watch.
Food cravings: Today I had a craving for Nerds... so strange! I always want pizza but that's been pretty consistent my entire pregnancy. It's not really a craving but just always sounds good. Oh! I did crave angel food cake and strawberries this week... holy moley that was delish!
Anything making you queasy or sick. No, certain smells make me feel a little queasy but nothing extreme.
Gender: Boy
Labor signs: No
Symptoms: Heartburn has been ok lately actually! I am starting to feel a little tired and get burnt out really fast but overall I feel great. Still can't believe our little guy will be here in a few short months!
Belly button in or out? Outie
Wedding rings on or off? On
Happy or moody most of the time: I've been a little emotional this week... I can definitely tell a change in my hormones as I've been a bit more sensitive than usual lately. Normally I'm pretty level headed but for some reason things strike a nerve much more quickly than usual.
Looking forward to: Our first appointment with the midwife on Monday! Oh yeah, and my stinkin glucose test which I am super nervous about. I really hope I pass!



Oh my gosh, isn't it the weirdest feeling when the roll over like that?! My belly button is still in, but I haven't been able to wear my rings because my fingers are so swollen and I really miss them. How did the glucose test go? I failed my first one but ended up passing the second... good luck!
ReplyDeleteThe glucose test went great, I passed woohoo! I was so nervous about that. I'm so glad you passed the second one though, such a relief I'm sure! I keep thinking I'll need to take my rings off but they seem ok for now. I had an outie to start with but now it's even more out! If I don't wear a belly band you can totally see my belly button under my shirt, it looks so funny!
DeleteJust started following your blog! So excited to hear about your first visit with your midwife! My husband and I also took Bradley and had a successful unmedicated natural birth! I'm hoping the same for you! So excited to follow along!!! -xo Amanda

That's so great to hear you had an unmedicated natural birth and the Bradley classes helped! It's so nice to hear from other mommies about their experiences. Thanks for stopping by :)
DeleteHey, found you via Share the Love Blog Hop! You're making me miss my pregnant belly, my little guy is 4.5 months now, it goes so so fast once they are out!
ReplyDeleteOh thank you! I know I can't wait for him to be here, it's already gone by so fast I can't imagine what it will be like once he's here and growing! Congrats on your little one!
