Maternity clothes: Yes.
Stretch marks: They're back. The few I saw on my hip a few weeks ago... are there again and on both sides now. Bleh. None on my belly though.
Sleep: Sucky! I'm fighting a cold this week too, so combined with the "I have to pee...again" is the "I have to blow my nose...again" and "cough, cough, choke...again..."
Best moment this week: I didn't think I was going to make it out of bed but, my work shower was this weekend. Caleb got a ton of diapering essentials and more adorable clothes. I'll post pictures in a few days.
Movement: Is very different now. He still kicks hard from time to time, but mostly it's turning and stretching and twisting I feel. My belly feels very full and heavy almost all of the time so sometimes it's hard to recognize that he's moving in there without reaching down and feeling him.
Food cravings: Nothing this week.
Food aversions: All is well here.
Gender: Most handsome boy on the block :)
Labor pains: No real new pains associated with baby. Mostly just battling the sickness this week. I was supposed to have my first bi-weekly checkup on Monday, but the nurse told me not to come in if I was sick. So, we rescheduled for Wednesday. I would have taken another day off, but I really want to save my sick days for when he's here.
Belly Button in or out? In.
What I miss: Sleeping on my belly... :(
What I am looking forward to: Sleeping on my belly... :)
Weekly Wisdom: The first person a little boy falls in love with is his mom. <3
Milestones: BabyBoy is starting another month of rapid growth. He'll gain a half a pound a week and then should slow down again just before delivery. Right now he measures about 3.75lbs and 17 inches long. At my appointment yesterday, the Dr. said he was about 1-2 weeks ahead and wants us to have a growth scan during the first week of April if this big boy hasn't already made his debut. He didn't guarentee he'd come early (of course, there are no guarentees) but he's been thinking all along that little guy was further along than we thought by about a week or two. So, we're closer to the "any day now" time than we thought :)
