It's been 10 weeks since I have updated this... so A LOT has changed :)
How far along: 28 weeks
How big is baby: The size of an eggplant... average baby at this point is 1.5 - 2.2 lbs and 13.6 - 14.8 inches.... (getting big!)
Total weight gain: I am holding steady at about 10-15 lbs lost since being pregnant... no weight gain here because of my sickness in the beginning.
Maternity clothes: Only my one pair of jeans and a pair of comfy sweat pants... If I'm not at work - I am pretty much living in them. haha
Sleep: Sleep is becoming a distant memory. I toss and turn, I wake up to go to the bathroom, I get back from the bathroom and I am awake and can't sleep for an hour... etc. Frustrating. But I suppose it is just getting me ready for life with a newborn.
Best moment of the week: Our painter came this past week and sketched out a tree that we are getting painted on the nursery walls... She comes to actually paint it on January 9th... I can't wait! Also - on Tuesday we start our 3rd trimester!
Food cravings: Oreo ice cream with gummy worms and I'm really liking oranges these days.
Food aversions: Still having a hard time eating any kind of meat...
Symptoms: Thank goodness that my sickness has been gone since about week 22... I am hoping it doesn't come back in the 3rd trimester like I hear it can! Other than that - lower back aches.
Movement: LOTS of movement! Especially when I lay down. We like to watch the baby move every night before bed - I swear it is better than tv!
Gender: ALL boy! :) I was so shocked when I found out!
What I’m looking forward to: My shower on the 28th! :)
What I miss: I miss being on weightwatchers and losing weight. I can't wait until I have the baby and can get back on weightwatchers... I really liked the program and am missing it!
Next appt: January 12th. (from there on out we go every 2 weeks now instead of every 4! wow... this baby is coming whether we are ready or not!)
