How far along? 27 weeks! This kid is the size of a rutabaga and apparently is working on practice breathing. His lungs are developing as well.
Total weight gain/loss: After my glucose tolerance test, I was up 16 lbs from my very first visit.
Maternity clothes? If it was appropriate, I would wear stretchy pants for the rest of my life.
Stretch marks? Nope
Symptoms: This week there has been hip and lower back pain when I don't sit to rest frequently.
Sleep: I bit the bullet and bought a snoogle. I thought that they were ridiculously overpriced body pillows, but after trying my regular pillow, boppy, and other pillow arrangements, I broke down and purchased it. So far it's been a good investment.
Best moment this week: Having a stranger comment on my pregnancy. The cashier at Target was the first person to ask me about it, and I was excited to talk with her about it. She was just so gosh darn cheery! I also really liked that Lucy decided to use my belly as a pillow last night... too sweet.
Have you told family and friends: Everyone knows.
Miss Anything? Soaking in the hot tub. I think it would feel amazing on my sore hips/back.
Movement: I'm starting to figure out his active periods- definitely in the morning when I am just about to get out of bed and the drive into work, right after lunch, and in the evening after dinner.
Food cravings: Still no cravings, but if you get in the way of my cupcake, I might bite off your hand.
Anything making you queasy or sick: I really don't like the idea of eating chicken. Blech.
Have you started to show yet: The belly's getting bigger!
Baby is a: BOY
Belly Button in or out? Still in.
Wedding rings on or off? On
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy.
Looking forward to: Luke coming home on Friday from his work trip!
