How Far Along: 29 weeks (30 weeks tomorrow, which means I’ll officially be counting it down in the single digits, just 9 weeks left)
Size of baby: Baby #2 is the size of a butternut squash, that’s roughly 2.5 pounds and a little over 15 inches long
Total Weight Gain/Loss: +22 per my last appointment, it’ll be higher, for sure. I can’t get enough to eat these days.
Maternity Clothes: That top pictured above is one of two maternity tops I’ve purchased during this pregnancy. Crazy, right? It’s from Pink Blush maternity, and I do love the top and the fit.
Gender: Its a boy!
Movement: All of the time and Im absolutely loving it, every single night we lay in bed and watch as he moves across my belly. It’s a crazy thing, but a highlight of each day.
Sleep: still fantastic.
What I miss: Just the vain things, nothing important.
Cravings: This week, I’ve just been hungry. No specific craving, but I feel like I can’t eat enough. This is bad, friends. Really bad.
Symptoms: I did figure out that I was having a reaction to the moisturizer I’ve been using, instead of just insanely dry skin. Thank goodness, things are back to normal.
Best Moment this week: We ordered the rocker for the nursery, which was the last big ticket item. I nearly cried in Buy Buy Baby after she told me it would be 13 weeks. I know that’s so silly, but I nearly cry about a lot of things these days. And I would already have a glider if it weren’t for an ordeal with the first one. Anyway, we finally figured out that we could have the shipping expedited. It should be here by the end of next month and I can’t wait to have the nursery finished and ready to go.
