Baby is the size of? An eggplant. Baby weights about 2 1/4 pounds and is almost 15 inches long.
Total weight loss/gain? I was 154 at the doctors today with shoes and clothes on so that would mean that I have gained 26 pounds since week 5.
Maternity Clothes? Yes
Stretch Marks? None so far. Using coconut oil on my tummy everyday.
Sleep? Tossing and turning a lot. I sleep the most comfortable on the couch.
Best moment of this week? Going for my check up today and doing the glucose screening. I should get the glucose results in a week so pray for no gestational diabetes. My exam was perfect, BP was good, iron was good, weight was good, heartbeat was strong and I was measuring one centimeter bigger than I should be. I was measuring 29 instead of 28. :) Made me feel much better since I was nervous that baby was originally measuring small in the ultrasounds. Hopefully all those hard boiled eggs are paying off!
Worst moment of this week? Just feeling really anxious because we have not really done much to prepare for the baby. I feel like at this point with Harrison I was so close to being ready, with this one, I'm just kinda like "I got this".
Miss Anything? Been missing my friends and family up north a lot lately. Wishing I could plan one last trip up there before baby comes.
Movement? Lots of movement. I swear baby never sleeps! Hopefully that means he/she will sleep when they come out. HA!
Food Cravings? A jar of pickles somehow leaked in our fridge and I kept smelling the pickle smell and wanted pickles.
Anything make you queasy or sick? Eggs, smells from the kitchen.
Symptoms? Heart burn, lots of kicks, tired, charlie horses in my calfs at night. Gosh are those painful.
Have you started to show yet? Oh yes, random people ask all the time when I am due, what we are having, etc.
Sorry for the overkill of pictures,
just figured I would provide some other angles today.
Gender Predictions? Still have no clue. Maybe a boy!?
Labor signs? Some Braxton hicks
Belly Button in or out? In but looking a little strange.
Exercise? Keeping up with Harrison
Happy or Moody most of the time? Pretty happy.
Looking forward to? Scheduling my C-section. I figured we would talk about it today but the mid-wife I saw today said the doctors schedules weren't out yet for May. I think I am going to try to call the office tomorrow to see if I can get someone else.
Any irrational worries? Worried about recovery from the C-section and how I will handle Harrison jumping/climbing on me and wanting to be held while I am recovering and tending to the baby.
