Baby Girl- 28 weeks

Hi Lovelies!! 

Here is my update for this week!! 

Today is:  May 31, 2015

How far along: I am sitting at 28 weeks which means that I am officially in my third trimester!!

Total weight gain: Still sitting at 17 pounds right now. I had my appointment this past Wednesday which went well, and we also scheduled my c-section. We are so excited!! That just means that it's getting close.

What is going on with the babe: Baby Girlcan blink her eyes (with eyelashes!), and she has sleep cycles. She can now cough. Born this week, though premature, she would have an excellent prognosis because her lungs have reached the point (for the most part) maturity.

What's going on with Mama:  Officially in the I-want-to-live-in-yoga-pants phase, as we enter the third trimester! I am so excited!!! 

Baby is:  A Girl!!!

Maternity clothing: Bottoms, absolutely. Tops, still wearing non-maternity which means that i am wearing men's t-shirts size 3X to 4X.

Sleep: Tossing and turning with potty breaks in the middle of the night. Also, I am snoring and loudly too. (Still doing all of this!), and I have been having some pretty bad heartburn.

Movement: Lots of it and I love it!! She moves all the time!!

Cravings/Aversions:  Nutella on toast with a tall glass of chocolate milk!

Symptoms:

- heartburn

- out of breath quicker

-Acne
-Braxton Hicks contractions
-Frequent potty breaks
-Round ligament pain

How has this pregnancy been different than the first:

Third trimester with Angelina was a bit easier than with this one. With this one, I have had heartburn almost daily and I have had more braxton hicks contractions.

How big sister was this week: She is so excited to be a big sister!!Her bedtime routine has gotten a little bit easier. I just hope it continues.

The best moment(s) of this past week: Time with my family.

I'm looking forward to: Our next ultrasound which is this week!!
