Wow, has it really been 4 weeks since I last posted? Sorry folks, I guess there just hasn't been much to tell. I'm struggling with what to say on this blog now that I am finally expecting my miracle...so I'll just stick to the boring ol' updates.
How far along: 28 weeks...there are several different ideas on when each trimester starts, but I am going to say that 28 weeks sounds good for the 3rd trimester :)
Size of baby: eggplant
Physical symptoms: cankles...oh the horror! Everything else is pretty much the same
Weight gain/loss: Much higher than I expected at this point...let's call it 26 lbs. Ouch
Maternity clothes: Yup
Stretch marks: Boobs only...hoping since I have gone this long without stretch marks on my belly that I can avoid them altogether.
Sleep: Eh...I'm so uncomfortable, so it's hard to fall asleep. Once I do, though, I guess I sleep alright.
Best moment since last week: Making it to the 3rd trimester!
Movement: Tons. I've gotten to see my belly move a little too, which is awesome.
Cravings/Aversions: Poppyseed muffins...random. Still dislike chicken
Gender: Boy!!!!
Labor signs: Nope
Belly button: half n half
What I miss: fitting in my shoes :(
What I am looking forward to: meeting my new OBGYN July 1st...hoping that I get a better vibe from this one so that I can stop worrying so much about what my birth experience will be like.
