Weight Gained: Yeah this last trimester I don't think you can help but put on the pounds. I weighed in at my appointment at 186 pounds, which means I'm up 32 pounds from my first appointment.
At this point, it is what it is and I'm not trying to stress too much about my weight being that I'm still making it to the gym a few times a week which has to count for something! Plus, I'm still not at my heaviest weight so I count that as a win!
Symptoms: Bigger and Bigger belly! And a ton of movement! This kid is a wild boy and I'm pretty sure as soon as he comes out he won't be able to sit still.
Movement: Like I just said- YES! Our friend EJ was over visiting last week, and she got to see my shirt move because he was rolling around so much. The face she made when she saw it was pretty funny and awesome all at the same.
Food Cravings: Still not really. But I have bought candy more often then I normally would, but when I do buy candy it's because I looking for an extra sugar kick for when I'm feeling sluggish. Growing a baby can take a lot of energy out of you.
Food Aversions: Again not really. Now that this baby is taking up move room, I find myself not being able to eat very much before getting full. And if I eat too much- heartburn will happen.
Sleep: It depends on the night. Last week I found myself sleeping in the new recliner in the baby's room because sleeping flat on my back or side just wasn't working for me. I also found a good use for my "Boppy Pillow" until this kid gets here- it makes for great leg/ hips support which has made sleeping a lot easier this week.
Stretch Marks? So far so good.... knock on wood. All I can say is heavy, thick lotion has been my friend throughout the pregnancy.
Miss Anything? A hot- hot tub and red wine. Anytime I get into my 96 degree hot tub it's nice, but I can't wait until I can get into it at over 100 degrees again. Also, anytime I see someone on TV drinking a glass of red wine, I can't help but be a little jealous. However, I can have both of these things again soon enough.
Looking forward to: Many things... but the one that is coming up this weekend is attending my friend Brittany's baby shower! Additionally, I get to visit with Chris and Lindsay while I'm in town for Brittany's shower. It's nice to have a few friends in the same town, so I get to spend time with multiple people in just one short road trip!
Belly Button in or out? It's a innie/ outtie! The middle part is still in but the edges are popping out. So needles to say- it's pretty weird looking.
Happy or moody most of the time? At work- yeah moody is what's up. I currently have no tolerance for stupid people, students who don't make appointments to see me, or people who call me 6 times in 15 minutes. If I didn't pick up the phone first 5 times, what makes you think the 6th time is going to be the charm?!?
New Baby Items: Everything we got at our baby shower! Only thing we bought is the last few weeks was the baby's crib and dresser- which won't be here until after the baby is born... opps! But we got the changing table and rocker for him to sleep in put together so those are ready to go.
Wedding Ring- On or off? Still on! I count myself very lucky that I've haven't had much swelling in either my hands or feet!
Other: Well the big news that I found out at my doctors appointment is that this kid is "breech". Yeah- I'm not excited about this because the doctor has schedule a C-section for November 17th. So unless this kids flips into the position in next 3 weeks, we'll be meeting him of the 17th!
