Baby is the size of? A Pineapple - baby weighs about 4 pounds and is approximately 17 inches from head to heel.
Total weight loss/gain? Gained 34.5 pounds
Maternity Clothes? Yes, even that selection is getting slim.
Stretch Marks? No stretch marks, lots of blue veins. Getting itchy.
Sleep? Sleep is pretty good actually. A friend gave me a big C shaped maternity pillow and it is amazing. Supports the back, the tummy, and the legs all in one. Actually, everyone in the family loves it. Dad tried to steal it from me and I caught both Clancy and Harrison cuddled up in it at different times. I will try to take a picture for next time. But its the best thing in the world for a pregnant woman (or a dad, dog, or toddler too)!
Best moment of this week? Getting the maternity pillow!
Worst moment of this week? Feeling overwhelmed at times, of having to do it all. House always feels a mess, trying to work, clean, make food, eat right, etc. etc.
Miss Anything? Nothing food wise. I miss my energy.
Movement? Lots of movement and getting painful. I think space is getting tight in there for baby.
Food Cravings? I wish I had cravings. I still don't really have an appetite and the heartburn is SO bad that I don't even feel like eating.
Anything make you queasy or sick? Eggs, eggs and eggs...and would you believe every meal when I ask Harrison what he wants to eat he says "eggs and cashup" (ketchup). YUCK.
Symptoms? Heartburn up the wazoo, tired, Braxton hicks but not as many as before, lots of movement, sore upper back.
Have you started to show yet? Yes, can't go anywhere without someone asking when I am due or if I know what I am having.
Gender Predictions? I think a boy.
Labor signs? Nothing yet and hoping holds off until my scheduled C-section. 6.5 weeks to go. Holy COW our lives are about to be turned upside down!
Belly Button in or out? Mostly in but there is one little area that sticks out.
Exercise? Nothing crazy, I can barely get out of bed!
Happy or Moody most of the time? Still pretty happy most of the time.
Looking forward to? Doctors appointment next Monday. I will probably start going weekly pretty soon.
Any irrational worries? Recovery after C-section, complications during C-section, NO SLEEP!
