29 weeks

How far along? 29 Weeks

Baby Bump? Yep, it’s getting big. I think I am finally starting to get used to having it around. I now know that it really doesn’t help to turn sideways when I am trying to squeeze through a tight space.

Maternity Clothes? I am either in maternity clothes or pajamas… I have a couple pairs of pants that I can wear if I rubber band the button. I finally broke down and ordered some jeans. Now I will have something to wear on the weekends. 

Best moment this week:  Finished the quilt, made some burp cloths with the extra fabric. It’s so much fun getting things ready for this little girl to come. I’m just worried that we are going to have everything ready way before she comes and I will get super anxious for her to finally get here.

Belly Button in or out: It's still in.

Miss anything?  Not having to pee every time I am walking around for longer than 5 minutes. 

Food cravings: Nothing new here, no crazy pregnancy cravings, but we just got a box of peaches that are super delicious and I will be eating a million of them this week. 

This week baby is the size of: Butternut Squash, a little over 15 inches long and weighing around 2.5 pounds.

Happy or moody most of the time: I’m usually pretty happy. I’m getting so excited to become a mom… the next 11 weeks are going to go by so SLOW.

Gender: BABY GIRL! 

Symptoms: Hungry, occasional heartburn, crazy dreams, back pain if I stand for too long.

Sleep: This week hasn't been too bad in the sleep department. 

Baby’s development this week: She is starting to be able to regulate her own body temperature, and now has bone marrow that will make her blood.

New Baby Items: The crib and the dresser are now set up in our spare room, I still have a lot of de-junking to do before the baby comes. We also go another little outfit from one of my co-workers.

Looking forward to: Finishing the pictures for the nursery. I have made a couple pictures for the nursery and plan on making a few more. There is still so much I want to do before this baby comes.

Anything Else Going on: We have our doctor appointment next Monday. We get to have an ultrasound done, which is scary that they feel like they need an extra ultrasound to check on her, but it is always nice to see our little girl.

I think that I might be starting to feel the whole “nesting” thing. All I want to do all day is make check lists for what I need to get done before the baby comes. I make a new check list every day pretty much (I only ever get through a few of the things on my very long list of things to do).
