BUMPdate - 29 WEEKS




How Far Along: 29 weeks. 11 to go!
Baby Size: 17 inches, 3.1 pounds (Butternut Squash)
Total Weight Gain: I’m up 19 total pounds so far. The doctor says that is fine and there’s no need to worry that I gained 7 of those pounds last month…yikes!
Maternity Clothes? Pretty much all maternity at this point. My tshirts, yoga pants, gym shorts, and any extra long pre-preggo shirts still fit, but pants/shorts and everything else are maternity. Most of my regular shirts are no longer working.
Stretch Marks? Nope.
Sleep: Still really tired. I need to nap at least once a day or I fall asleep on the couch around 8pm. And even with the nap I only make it until 9:30.
Best moment this week: My husband came home!! It’s been 2 months without him and even though he leaves a lot, these 2 months were the longest yet. When he left, I barely had a bump. Now, I look like I’m ready to go any day!
Miss Anything? Coke, cold turkey lunchmeat, queso from the Mexican restaurant down the road.
Movement: She’s awake and moving when I wake up and between 5 and 7pm on most days. Other than that, I get a few nudges here and there, just enough to let me know she’s ok.
Food Cravings: Frozen drinks (like slurpees, icee’s, frozen pink lemonade from taco bell)…honestly, I could have a frozen drink with every meal. Also yogurt, regular lemonade and that’s it. I’m hungry, but not craving anything in particular.
Anything making you queasy or sick? Having an empty stomach and heartburn…the heartburn has gotten outrageous. Tums are now my new best friend.
Gender: Hoping she’s still a girl ;)
Labor Signs: Nope
Belly button in or out? Innie, but I don’t think that will be lasting much longer.
Wedding rings on or off? Still the wedding band, though that’s getting a little snug.
Happy or Moody most of the time: Pretty happy!
Looking forward to: Little L’s baby shower this weekend! I get to see my family and hubby’s family too!

BUMPdate - 28 WEEKS



How Far Along: 28 weeks. 12 to go!
Baby Size: 17 inches, 2.9 pounds (I missed the food comparison this week!)
Total Weight Gain: No clue, but I’m sure it’s more than the recommended amount.
Maternity Clothes? Pretty much all maternity at this point. My tshirts, yoga pants, gym shorts, and any extra long pre-preggo shirts still fit, but pants/shorts and everything else are maternity. Most of my regular shirts are no longer working.
Stretch Marks? Nope.
Sleep: I’m exhausted. Not sure if that’s because it’s the 3rd trimester or if because my quality of sleep at night is terrible. Probably both. But I have to nap at least once a day to make it to 9pm.
Best moment this week: Feeling Little L move from the outside! She finally gave me a swift kick that I could see and then lots of movement all over my stomach. Really weird, but great at the same time.
Miss Anything? Coke, cold turkey lunchmeat, queso from the Mexican restaurant down the road.
Movement: She’s pretty active now, thank goodness!
Food Cravings: Frozen drinks (like slurpees, icee’s, frozen pink lemonade from taco bell), any kind of lemonade actually, yogurt, and candy.
Anything making you queasy or sick? Having an empty stomach and heartburn…the heartburn has gotten outrageous. Tums are now my new best friend.
Gender: Hoping she’s still a girl ;)
Labor Signs: Nope
Belly button in or out? Innie, but getting much more shallow!
Wedding rings on or off? Just my wedding band today…it’s larger than my engagement ring and for now, it’s the only one that fits without turning my finger bright red.
Happy or Moody most of the time: Pretty happy!
Looking forward to: My husband finally returning home in a few days. Woohoo!

HAPPY 4TH BIRTHDAY LILY! 

Can't believe it's been 3.5 years that this little lady has been with us. It's almost impossible to remember life without her in our home.

BUMPdate - 27 WEEKS


I forgot to take a bump picture this week :( 


How Far Along: 27 weeks. 13 to go!
Baby Size: 16 inches, 2.5 pounds (Head of Cauliflower)
Total Weight Gain: This week I’m ignoring the scale. I think it’s pretty clear I’ve gained more than the recommended “pound per week” in the last 3 weeks. Yikes!
Maternity Clothes? Pretty much all maternity at this point. My tshirts, yoga pants, gym shorts, and any extra long pre-preggo shirts still fit, but pants/shorts and everything else are maternity. Most of my regular shirts are no longer working.
Stretch Marks? Nope.
Sleep: I’m exhausted. Not sure if that’s because it’s the 3rd trimester or if because my quality of sleep at night is terrible. Probably both. But I have to nap at least once a day to make it to 9pm.
Best moment this week: Meeting my new nephew Christian. I got to visit him and his mommy (my best friend) on Sunday and he is adorable. I’m so glad I could meet him sooner than I thought!
Miss Anything? Coke, cold turkey lunchmeat, queso from the Mexican restaurant down the road.
Movement: She’s there and she’s awake a lot. Hopefully that’s not an indication of life after July ;)
Food Cravings: Frozen drinks (like slurpees, icee’s, frozen pink lemonade from taco bell), any kind of lemonade actually, yogurt, and candy.
Anything making you queasy or sick? Having an empty stomach and heartburn…the heartburn has gotten outrageous. Tums are now my new best friend.
Gender: Hoping she’s still a girl ;)
Labor Signs: Nope
Belly button in or out? Innie, but getting much more shallow!
Wedding rings on or off? Just my wedding band today…it’s larger than my engagement ring and for now, it’s the only one that fits without turning my finger bright red.
Happy or Moody most of the time: Pretty happy!
Looking forward to: Only 12 more days until my husband comes home! Woohoo!

This is what happens when it finally gets warm out and you take your all black dog out for a walk in the middle of the day. She sleeps!!!
