27 weeks!

How far along? 27 weeks and 2 days!

How big is baby? He's an eggplant/cauliflower this week (depending on the app).

Total weight gain/loss: I've gained about 16 pounds. 

Maternity clothes? Yep!

Sleep: I am crazy tired lately. 

Best moment this week: Baby shower! We get to see Baby O when we go to the dr on Thursday! 

Movement: He's always moving around, but now there's the rolling, and that's super weird! 

Food cravings: Peaches!

Food Aversions: Red meat again :/

Gender: A sweet little boy!

Labor Signs: a few Braxton Hicks contractions. 

Pregnancy Symptoms? Mild sciatica, pubic bone pain, my belly gets hurt sometimes like it's being pulled downward, peeing when I sneeze/cough (lovely), leg cramps, heartburn, nausea, sore boobies again...

Belly Button in or out? Innie still! 

What I miss: Being able to move?

What I am looking forward to: Seeing baby on the 4d ultrasound! 

Upcoming appointments: 3 hour glucose test tomorrow :( I failed my other one by 3 points. Praying for an ok result! 

Weekly Wisdom: Pee when you first get the urge. Otherwise you risk peeing a little or a lot when someone says something funny. 

Milestones: Last week of the 2nd trimester! 

Bump Picture: Almost can't see my feet!

25 weeks... In NY!

Today was my grandma's birthday so we went out to eat good seafood and take a walk on the bay! 


25 weeks!

How far along? 25 weeks and 1 day! 

How big is baby? He's an eggplant/cauliflower this week (depending on the app).

Total weight gain/loss: I'm on vacation, so I haven't checked ;) 

Maternity clothes? Yep, and I might need some bigger shorts! Dang. 

Sleep: I slept amazing last night!

Food cravings: Pizza and bagels! Carbs. 

Food Aversions: Red meat again :/

Gender: A sweet little boy!

Labor Signs: I felt a Braxton hicks contraction last night. Weird! 

Pregnancy Symptoms? Mild sciatica, pubic bone pain, my belly gets hurt sometimes like it's being pulled downward, peeing when I sneeze/cough (lovely), leg cramps... 

Belly Button in or out? Innie still! 

What I miss: Being able to breathe! This congestion is killing me. 

What I am looking forward to: Baby showers! 

Upcoming appointments: Glucose test soon! 

Weekly Wisdom: When you don't think you can get any bigger, you definitely can! 

Milestones: Baby knows my voice :) 

Bump Picture: 25 weeks at the pool in NY! I definitely got a little toasty (burned), but being able to cool off in that pool was awesome! I had surgery when I was a baby for pyloric stenosis, and that scar is stretching, stretching! I'm trying not to gain a ton of weight period, but especially not super fast so that my skin has time to stretch. I have heard horror stories of scars bleeding because they are weaker than intact skin. But, that being said, no new stretch marks (the faded ones from puberty still exist...), and I'm crossing my fingers it stays that way!
