29 Weeks

August 2, 2012



Geez my belly is getting big!  And I still have a ways to go, yikes!
Don't mind the messy hair, goofy smile, and mismatched outfit...it had been a looooong day ;)

Pregnancy Stats:

How Far Along: 29 weeks

Size of baby: 2 1/2 lbs, 15 inches long, size of a butternut squash

Total Weight Gain: 10 pounds so far, as of 3 weeks ago, definately more by now. I go to the doctor tomorrow, so we shall see! I hear you are supposed to put on a pound a week from this point out and that the baby doubles in size in a month...yikes!

Gender: It's a GIRL!!!

Movement: She is moving and kicking like crazy! She seems to be growing like a weed and can really kick hard. Sometimes it really hurts, but still the best feeling ever.  Soccer player??

Sleep: Eh....I sleep ok sometimes and not ok other times.  I either roll and toss, wake up on my back and freak out, or have to go to the bathroom.  Just part of it I guess :)

What I miss: A good nights sleep, running to clear my head...heck, I miss all exercise at this point.

Cravings: Chocolate and more chocolate, nothing new.

Symptoms: Horrible neck pain (thank you work chair), back pain, a touch of sciatica, braxton hicks contractions, and I still get mild pressure feelings when I exercise and the occassional heart burn,you know, the usual "pregnancy pains." but I can't really complain about anything major right now. Praise God for that!

Maternity Clothes: I have been wearing scrubs to work a lot.  Ive been trying to by normal clothes just a tad bit bigger...they are cheaper and way cuter!  I just don't understand why all the maternity clothes are either way over priced, ugly, or stiped?!?

Best Moment this week: Feeling the baby move around and become more active!
