Crazy, huh?!
Now onto this week's bumpdate!
How far along: 29 weeks
Size of baby: Small cabbage
Baby's size and weight: 17 in, 2.9 lbs
My total weight gain: 34 pounds; I seem to be gaining a pound a week now! So maybe my body needed all the extra weight and is finally slowing down...Baby's development: -Getting close to birth length but still needs to gain weight.
-Baby will double or triple in weight over next 11 weeks
-Less likely to feel big kicks and more elbow jabs as birth gets closer :) :) :)
Stretch marks: None.
Maternity clothes: Yes. Cardigans, leggings, and stretchy tanks are my best friends.
Gender: Girl.
Movement: Yes.
Sleep: Tossing and turning but still taking Unisom to sleep through the night.
What I miss: Zach, my own home, and being thin.
Food cravings: Trick-or-treat candy has been the death of me this week...bad, I know.
Symptoms: tired and large but other than that, not bad. Minus my ankle mishap which thankfully only seemed to be a bad roll and is almost healed already!
Nolan is: saying more and more each week. Baby boy will be two in two months.. sigh. It goes too fast.
Zach is: COMING HOME FOR THANKSGIVING! He found out yesterday and I could not be more thrilled to see him for the weekend! We didn't think we would say each other until Christmas so this was SUCH a fabulous surprise :) :)
What I'm looking forward to: Zach coming home in less than 4 weeks and then for GOOD less than 3 weeks after that!! I'm finally starting to see an end to this madness!
Best moments: Nolan and daddy FaceTiming and playing trucks; melts my heart. And these adorable Joules rain boots Nolan and I received... EEK I HOPE it rains soon :)
Funny things: Apparently me at lunch. I don't even know what I was doing but he was cracking up the entire time. Glad someone finds me humorous ;)
Not so funny things: Hurting my ankle but hey, I'm just thankful it's not broken!
And now, I want to introduce you to one of my fab sponsors!
