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!!
