28 Weeks already!


28 Weeks 3 days
 
 
How Far Along: 28 ish weeks
 
 
Size of baby: Like a Chinese cabbage (according to Babycenter) about 14.8 inches and almost 2 1/4 pounds!

Maternity Clothes: Some, mostly regular still. Sometime with belly band sometime without. The outfit above is regular AE cargo pants, and a med top from Target I got on the clearance rack a few weeks ago.
Movement: Still lots of movement, mostly at very specific times. I love being reassured BW is ok in there... Active most often EARLY AM, lunchtime and about 10PM on the dot.


What I miss: I am feeling ok, still LOTS and LOTS of contractions and now a LOVELY cold that has turned into a sinus infection! YUCKO. Drinking lots and lots of water, almost feel like I am turning INTO a river with the amount that goes in and comes out on a regular basis. Trying to drink MORE to clear the sickness away and stop the contractions ...


Sleep: This last week, I have been sleeping in better increments - like 2 hour stretches and then I am WIDE awake for a bit.


Symptoms: HEARTBURN, ACID REFLUX and more heartburn. Eating and breathing at the same time seem to be a problem this week, I think most of it stems from the sickies though, so hopefully that goes away soon.


Cravings: Still LOVING Ice water and COLD fruit, pineapple and applesauce this week. Oh and ICE CREAM :)

Best Moments this week: The nursery coming together, and realizing BW is going to make an arrival before we know it. I cannot wait to get the bedding I ordered, have to LOVE etsy. Debating on ordering a few more items I have found off etsy, that place is addicting.


What we are looking forward to:  Finishing up the nursery, going on our Babymoon in a few weeks, and enjoying these last couple of months as just the two of us! It is hard to wrap our heads around the fact that after 10 years it is going to be not just us anymore. We are EXCITED and super duper NERVOUS! My dr appt tomorrow - to make sure she is NOT going to come in the next couple of weeks ...

  1. where are you going on your babymoon?! I wish we were doing that. I too am loving fruit and icecream lately. Raspberries and vanilla icecream is a personal fave

  2. wow! your preg symptoms sound so much like mine! One main reason i've been out of the blog world (well, I read but don't write) is because I had a BRUTAL sinus infection that went to ear infection that still is not completely gone! Its hell! especially preggo when you can't just OD on pills! Also, the heartburn. OMG! I had it bad with teh first one and its worse and started earlier with this one! BY the end of my last pregnancy I was forced to sleep sitting up so not to wake up choking on stomach acid! Gross, I know! Tums and Zantac are my best friends! Enjoy your babymoon! I will post an update on my blog soon! You are looking great!
