How far along: THIRD Trimester :: Weeks 26-30
Size of baby: Kabocha Squash {whatever that is}
Weight gain: 164 pounds // 25 pounds gained. I naively thought I'd like to try gaining only 25 pounds this pregnancy since I had shaved off 5-7 pounds when pregnant with Brielana (for a gain of 30 pounds) but I'm on track for 30 and am at peace with that number.
Maternity clothes: I'm done. I can't even look at maternity clothes anymore with any passion. I'm already thinking about my 4th trimester transition wardrobe and know I may want to leave some "fun money" for some flowy, forgiving tops.
Gender: boy!
Movement: So. Much. Activity. And little guy has impeccable aim because I get such strong shots right to my lady bits I feel like I could pee myself. Its cray.
Sleep: I've had bouts of weird middle of the night insomnia. I guess it doesn't help that I'm trying to keep Brielana in her bed all night and play musical beds a couple times every night.
What I miss: Nothing at the moment I'm at a really peaceful place right now and it feels marvelous.
Cravings: Muffins. I've made three different kinds of muffins in two weeks. Easy to grab as a snack or have for breakfast and the girls eat them too.
Symptoms: Same old, same old. Though now I have some feet swelling to look forward to at the end of the day.
Highlight of the Month: Everyone has now had their turn feeling brother kick and it never gets old seeing the surprised/awed look on the recipients face!
I survived (and passed!) the Glucose test after my faux paux of chewing sugarless gum (I seriously didn't even think it would be a big deal (TMI) but I had just forgotten to brush my teeth lol.)
Stephanie sent me the sweetest monthly milestone stickers that I just can not wait to use! Thank you, friend!
A receptionist at my Doctor's office gave me the sweetest compliment of, "you don't even look pregnant. I mean everyone gains weight differently but you just look fabulous." I will take it!

ReplyDeleteOh I'm already thinking about that 4th trimester wardrobe too! Even though nursing hinders that a little bit, the options are only getting better & better. And you are looking so fab, not third trimester status at all!

ReplyDeletePs I LOVE that white with black stripes dress! Pleeeeease tell me it's non-maternity!
Third trimester?! It seems like just a few weeks ago you text me with the good news!
ReplyDeleteThe receptionist is spot on. You look SO good! I think I gained 30 pounds just in my butt with both kids. >eye roll<
You do look fabulous! I can't wait to see Little Man wearing those stickers.
