How far along: 29 weeks
Baby's size: Squash (Month 7 - week 29-32) or the size of a butternut squash for week 29 (about 2 1/2 pounds)
Symptoms: Heartburn is back this week. I also had a bunch of contractions on Wednesday that ended in me going to L&D because they wouldn't go away (of course, they went away as soon as I got to the hospital). My back is doing okay considering I haven't been to the chiropractor in over a week. I am hoping to make it to Thursday when my chiropractor comes back from vacation.
Total Weight Gain:
Total weight gain= +8 pounds
Maternity clothes: Yes
Best moment this week: Not pregnancy related, but visiting my sister and her family was the highlight of my week. I loved watching Superman play with his cousins! He learned so much from them and came home with new skills, new signs, and new words!
Movement: Absolutely!
Food cravings: Still liking fresh fruit...and juice.
Gender: BOY!!!
Labor signs: no real signs...just the Braxton Hicks that wouldn't go away. THANK GOODNESS! This baby needs to stay put for at least 10 more weeks.
What I miss: Although I still can cuddle with my son, the baby bump is getting in the way sometimes. It is tough to read stories together because I know he isn't as comfortable as he could be.
What I'm looking forward to: Feeling better. Superman has a doozy of a cold and I am just feeling achy. I will happy when we are all better again.
Weekly Wisdom (aka what I learned this week): Not pregnancy related...the iPad is the greatest invention for traveling with a toddler. Since he doesn't watch a lot of tv, he was cool just watching the Sesame Street podcasts without sound on the plane. I even put on Up! for a little bit and he was such a happy camper watching the dogs and balloons. The people around us were happy too.
Milestones: Hitting the third trimester!
Emotions: Doing pretty well.
Exercise:
Boot Camp: None! (1 hour 15 minutes each each day)
Pregnancy Water Aerobics: Thursday (1 hour each)
Stretching: not really consistent with this any more....which is a good thing since that means my back is doing okay.
Total exercise time: 1 hours (NOT GOOD!!! This coming week will be better!)
