29 Weeks

<2-16-13>

How far along? 29 weeks
Total weight gain/loss: Gained 26 pounds so far
Maternity clothes? Yes
Stretch marks? Nope
Sleep: Sleeping Good other than trips to the bathroom
Best moment this week: Trace telling me once again to "Spit the Baby out."  He gets so serious, looks right into my eyes, and then says it.  It is so cute!  I am afraid that after the baby gets here, he will start saying "put the baby back in there"  :)
Miss Anything? Running around with the boys.
Movement: CONSTANT movement.  I can remember with the boys sometimes thinking that I hadn't felt the baby in a while so I would lay on my side to see if I could get them to move.  I have never had to do that with this baby.  My belly is always moving.
Food cravings: Like my orange juice in the mornings and starting to want more fruit. 
Anything making you queasy or sick: Nope
Have you started to show yet: Yes.  People still ask me if it is about time to have the baby.  Gender: Won't know until he or she gets here.  Been dreaming about a boy a lot.  Who knows though.
Labor Signs: Nope.
Belly Button in or out? Halfway Out
Wedding rings on or off? Just wearing my wedding ring not wedding band.
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy
Looking forward to: Ultrasound on the 4th of March


Here is how my evenings usually end:

Jeremy is always asking me where Baby #3 is going to go once he or she arrives.  I am really not sure!

28 Weeks - Third Trimester

<2-9-13>

HELLOOOOOO THIRD AND FINAL TRIMESTER!

How far along? 28 weeks
Total weight gain/loss: Gained 26 pounds so far
Maternity clothes? Yes
Stretch marks? Nope
Sleep: Sleeping Good,  I think the baby has moved down some because my breathing problems have stopped.
Best moment this week: I drank a bottle of water and then a bottle of gatorade and then the baby started moving around like crazy for about 15 minutes.  He or she was doing flips and kicking and punching like crazy.  My belly was constantly moving.  Unfortunatley, I was in Little Rock for an overnight stay at work so no one else got to see it! ------  My other favorite moment was when the boys were doctoring on me and the baby.  It was so cute so see the boys working on the baby!
Miss Anything? Running around with the boys.
Movement: CONSTANT movement.  I do not remember the boys moving around this much.  I remember Trace being more active than Jacob but this baby never sleeps!  Even at night when I wake up, I can feel the baby kicking and moving around.
Food cravings: Still craving Cocoa Puffs :).  
Anything making you queasy or sick: Nope
Have you started to show yet: Yes. BIG TIME.  This week at Sam's, the cashier wouldn't let me lift my groceries because she thought I was going into labor any day now.  She was shocked when I told her I had until May. 
Gender: Won't know until he or she gets here.
Labor Signs: Nope.
Belly Button in or out? Halfway Out
Wedding rings on or off? Just wearing my wedding ring not wedding band.
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy
Looking forward to: Having this baby and seeing how excited Jacob and Trace are!

27 Weeks

How far along? 27 weeks
Total weight gain/loss: Gained 26 pounds  - I about fell off the scale when I saw that I had gained 7 pounds since my last appointment!
Maternity clothes? Yes
Stretch marks? Nope
Sleep: Sleeping Good, it is hard when I first lay down - I guess the baby just pushes up on my lungs/rib cage.  I just feel like I can't breathe.  Might have to start sleeping in the recliner!
Best moment this week: When Dr. Rainwater tried to find the heart beat, the baby kicked at her monitor.  She jumped back and couldn't believe how strong the kick was!  The baby was moving so much she had lots of trouble finding the heart beat.
Miss Anything? Running around with the boys.
Movement: Flutters and punches
Food cravings: Still craving Cocoa Puffs :).
Anything making you queasy or sick: Nope
Have you started to show yet: Yes. BIG TIME.
Gender: Won't know until he or she gets here.

Belly Button in or out? Halfway Out
Wedding rings on or off? My wedding band is getting too tight to wear.
Happy or Moody most of the time: Usually very happy, sometimes I have a few moody moments though!
Looking forward to: Having this baby and seeing how excited Jacob and Trace are!


At my doctor's appointment today, I got my Rh immune-globulin shot.  Glad it's over!  It wasn't too bad :).  Our next appointment is in 4 weeks with another ultrasound.  Then after that I start my 2 week appointments.  I can't believe how fast this pregnancy has flown by!  Makes me sad since I know this is the last time I will ever be pregnant!
