29 Weeks

 
How far along? 29 Weeks
Total weight gain: 25 pounds
Maternity clothes? oh for sure :)  Nearly everything I wear is maternity (minus the top I'm wearing in the above picture...I just like the baseball tee look).  I bought a really cute maxi skirt and dress from old navy that I plan on wearing A LOT when the temps start cooperating!  I've also taken to wearing one of Rob's t-shirts at night with my pajama bottoms.
Stretch marks? none on my belly!
Sleep: blah...boo...stinko..yeah I'm not sleeping great at ALL.  I wake up almost every two hours to pee and I'm just not staying asleep for long periods of time.  This is so weird for me because I've always been a great sleeper :( 
Best moment this week:
another great doctor's appointment - I love my doctor.  She is so nice and always makes me feel good about myself - she said my blood pressure, weight, and measurements all look right on track.  She said if people are giving me a hard time about looking further along than I am that it's only because I was short/petite to begin with....the weight is pretty much all going to my belly (and maybe boobs :)  Also - Rob got me a sweet gift for Valentine's day...the tissue paper pom poms arrived in the mail...and I turned 31!
Miss Anything? being able to do anything without getting out of breath (taking laundry upstairs, leading walk at work, bending over, painting my toenails etc.) I definitely also missed drinking wine while we were in Arizona...so jealous of the bottles going around! 
Movement: lots of movement -- even when we were on the plane to and from Arizona (which was very reassuring).
Food cravings: still chocolate milk all the time - I even bought myself some to take to work and put a sign on that said "Carrie Hauck's chocolate milk - don't drink - I'm pregnant!"  Hopefully that scares people off :)  Sweets of any kind (Grandpa Jim sent a box of See's candy for Valentine's day and I may have immediately eaten the chocolate/carmel marshmallows covered in dark chocolate right away).  Also had some frozen yogurt in Arizona and now I've been thinking of ice cream and yogurt non stop! Oh and anything SOUR!
Anything making you queasy or sick: nope!
Gender: Boy
Labor Signs: No
Symptoms: A little bit of heartburn/acid reflux, not sleeping, and some bathroom issues :(
Belly Button in or out? still in but looking more weird by the day
Wedding rings on or off? wedding ring on - but it was really tight when we were traveling over the weekend (maybe just the heat in Arizona?)
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy!  It was so good to hear baby boy's heartbeat today and hear that I was healthy -- I can't wait to meet him!!!  And, I'm trying to stay organized about everything...meeting pediatrician's this week and pre-registering at the hospital.
Looking forward to: Putting more finishing touches in the nursery...showers with families and friends...and washing more baby clothes this weekend!
