29 weeks (and 2 days)








Photo Thoughts: My goodness I'm getting LARGE.  What on earth am I going to look like at full term? Holy Hannah. 

Size of baby: Roughly 2 1/2 pounds at this point. And over 15 inches long, head to heel :-) Fruit comparison this week : Butternut Squash. 

Cravings: Sweets like woah. Tom went to Dairy Queen on Sunday night and I got a cookie dough blizzard. Then Tuesday night I got a lemon lime mister misty float. And last night I bought chocolate covered potato chips from Trader Joes. Oh my word. 

What I love: I love how much Jack already loves this baby. He is always wanting to feel him move. He knows exactly how far along I am every week and gets excited when the week changes every Tuesday. Finn could care less right now. But I know he's going to love his lil bro. 

What I'm looking forward to the most: I guess going to the dr every two weeks. Probably just because that means we are getting closer.

Worries: I'm constantly worrying about my hernia. I'm also worried that I am going to go into labor in a weird place this time around. I have no clue why.

What is different this time around: Besides the fact that I feel like I look full term right now, not much. 

Symptoms: A few braxton hicks contractions every once in a while. Back pain at night.

Sleep: I'm sleeping great. I went through a few nights of middle of the night insomnia, but that is gone right now. I just wake up and my hips hurt SO bad from the side sleeping. But it doesn't hurt to get out of bed yet, so I guess I've got that going for me.

Movement: It feels like there is an alien moving in my stomach. Seriously, sometimes I verbally scream OUCH because he jabs my insides so hard. 

The belly: Is out of control 

Milestones: The nursery is ALMOST complete and I am in LOVE. I love how flipping organized it is. How it's boyish and how I have seem to have things under control in that room, unlike the rest of my house.

Amusing comments from the general public: When are you due? "July" - Oh you poor thing. ummmm.....

Best moment of the week: Having Tom feel the crazy movements and just be blown away how much he moves inside of me. This child goes insane at bedtime. Like moving so much it makes me kind of nauseous. haha.
