Baby #3: Week 30

Baby Size: Large cabbage! About 15.7" long, head to heel and about 3 lbs.
Total weight gain: About 20 lbs...I'll update next time after the Dr. appt.
Maternity clothes? Have definitely been wearing it; plus some items I have that are just longer and still fit over the belly!
Stretch marks? No new ones.
Sleep: I've been sleeping pretty good, actually. Whenever I wake up in the middle of the night, I feel all stiff and heavy and...just ugh. But besides that, I'm doing pretty good. Have been waking up with achey fingers lately.
Diet: I've been trying to up my fruit intake, especially with Fall coming and sicknesses going around. Trying to keep this immune system up and strong and not get sick. Otherwise, been eating the same; well balanced diet of healthy carbs, fruits/veggies, healthy fats and protein.
Food cravings: Still none. I think it was just the tater tots during first trimester, and now they're all done lol
Anything making you queasy or sick? No
Gender: Boy
Labor signs: Nope
Symptoms: Mainly still just the back pain. Oh, and swelling!! The ring is off, the feet are a bit swollen. Luckily all my shoes still fit, although maybe a little bit more snuggly.
Belly button in or out? Still sort of in the middle. I guess it's technically "in" still.
Wedding rings on or off: Off
Happy or moody most of the time: Happy with some days of crankiness...or moreso, shortness.
Best moment this week: Baby shower (last week) was so beautiful! Going through all the BOY clothes, blankies, etc; removing tags, thinking about organizing...I love getting everything ready! Makes the arrival even more exciting! I can't wait for baby boy to be here!!

Looking forward to: The next Dr. appointment. Finishing up babies room (painting soon!) and organizing closet. 

Baby #3: Week 28

Baby Size: Large Eggplant! About 15" long, head to heel!

Total weight gain: About 20 lbs.
Maternity clothes? I got a couple 3/4 sleeve solid shirts, to start getting ready for the cooler months. And I whipped out all my old stuff, finally.
Stretch marks? No new ones; I'm rubbing lots of that almond oil on my belly EVERY night, so hopefully that's helping.
Sleep: I've finally whipped out the huge pregnancy pillow. It's been great having it and has really helped keep me comfortable. Yes, it's kind of obnoxiously huge (lol) but I have back support, belly support, throw one leg over it...kind of feels like I'm sucked up in a cloud!
Diet: I feel like I've been craving "healthier" options lately, so filling up on lots of fruit throughout the day, veggies at every dinner meal, and starting the day off right with a good breakfast. During the week, after my workouts, I also make my green/protein smoothie, just to get in those extra nutrients.
Don't get me wrong, I still enjoy some treats here and there...ice cream at night, or a couple cookies during the day ;-)~
Food cravings: None really, besides as mentioned above.
Anything making you queasy or sick? No
Gender: Boy
Labor signs: Nope
Symptoms: Backache has really been ouchy. I've pinpointed some of the triggers though...sitting for too long, standing for too long (lol) orrrr sitting on the floor! If I'm up and walking around, that doesn't seem to bother it.
Belly button in or out? Kind of halfway point, lol I mean, it's not "out" but it'e certainly not "in," either.
Wedding rings on or off: Off :( I bought a fun little cheapy crystal ring to wear for now...however, it's a little too big; already flew off my hand once. oops
Happy or moody most of the time: Happy!
Best moment this week: I was in Reno for a work trip earlier this week and had a fun time seeing all my co-workers I only get to see 2x a year. Hearing/seeing their reactions was pretty fun. It's always interesting to hear all the different comments. But traveling with baby was kind of fun. Just knowing that I'm 'not alone' feels good :-)
Looking forward to: Baby shower in a week!! and more kicks! I'm so in love with all the movement! This little guy is a big time mover!!

Baby #3: Week 26

Sleep: I've been sleeping OK; still using the pillows for support between legs and behind back.
Workouts: Still going strong, 5 days a week; feeling great!
Diet: About the same; continuing to try to get lots of good, healthy nutrients in, while enjoying the occasional ice cream in the evening :-)
Food cravings: None.
Anything making you queasy or sick? Nope! But my nose has been particularly sensitive lately! I smell everything really strongly.
Gender: Boy
Labor signs: Nope
