Eeeek, I am getting bad at doing my weekly blog posts. I really have no excuse, sorrrryyyy.
Weight: Baby weighs as much as a honeydew melon. Approx 5 1/4lbs and is just over 18inches long. I gained 3lbs in the past 2 weeks so I am up all together 26lbs. J's last weigh in was at 20lbs haha love it. I don't feel like a house but I am starting to look like one. :p No tees or tanks fit me, they show at least 2 inches of my belly. I just bought a couple new LARGE shirts to cover this baby bump up. I just can't even believe my belly is going to grow even bigger. What the?!
Movements: Baby is still moving A LOT!! The movements are just slower and stronger. The movements sometimes stop me in my tracks they are so powerful.
Symptoms: Feeling a lot of pressure in my pelvis. Ooooh it especially hurts down there when I am putting on my pants or shorts.
Cravings: Ice Cream, Ice Cream, Ice Cream, chocolate.
Sleep: I don't go to bed until really really late. But I sleep throughout the entire night. I get up to pee at about 8am and then go back to sleep. I am feeling more sleepy and during the day I have about a half hour nap.
Stretch Marks: I finally got two on my right hip! Is it weird I got excited about that?
I am loving not having a period. I was thinking about how amazing it has been to not have a period for so long. Hopefully I don't bleed for too long after baby. ew. Speaking of vagina's, lawn maintenance is sooo hard hahaha. I am close to giving up!! But I won't, but I want too. It's weird to look down and not see a crotch haha!!!
I am still loving being pregnant. I am soaking up every single minute of this amazing miracle. The only complaint is I can't get comfy if I am trying to just sit and relax.
I am starting to get pretty anxious. My life as I know it is going to change drastically. J and I will be 100% responsible for another little person for the next 18years. My goodness gracious. I am confident J and I are going to be pretty awesome parents. It's just an overwhelming thought. So this babe can hang out in my uterus for another 5 or 6 weeks. Oh and nesting, what is that? I still haven't started the nesting phase. Everyone I know who is or was pregnant had everything all set up for the little babe by this point. I guess I should start preparing?
You look great! I have the same thoughts about the responsiblity for the 18 years. Really... it's kind of scary!
ReplyDeleteVery cute baby belly! :) I just wondered over from another blog and wanted to say congrats and I hope the next few weeks fly by so you can be holding baby!
