On Saturday March 15, 2014 – I was 29 weeks pregnant!
Pregnancy Highlights
How Far Along:
29 weeks 4 days
Size of baby:
According to The Bump, baby boy is the size of an acorn squash this week
Maternity Clothes:
Yes and no. Still wearing a mixture of both. All maternity pants, except for yoga pants and some non-maternity tops still.
Gender:
Boy!! If you missed that post, go here!
Movement:
LOTS! He is moving all day, but I can feel the big movements right when I lay down at night and first thing in the morning.
Sleep:
Sleep is going great! Some nights I don’t wake up at all and others maybe just once. I have been sleeping in a giant bean bag so that I’m reclined for the past few weeks and that has helped with comfort for sure.
What I miss:
Still really miss sleeping on my back. I’d love to be able to go up and down the stairs without an immediate bathroom stop. I miss fried eggs and my thigh gap;)
Cravings:
Cravings havent been a big deal for me. I have new foods that I am enjoying that I never ate before. I can’t get enough Granny Smith Apples and turkey sandwiches (I like them with mayo and mustard). Now that snow cone stands are opening I can’t get enough of my favorite, Watermelon/Sour Apple.
Symptoms:
I have some back pain on my right side where he likes to stretch out. Lots of bathroom breaks and some nasty swelling in my legs and feet.
Favorite Moment(s) This Week:
Nothing too major this week. Last week I moved the nursery room around and put the crib up.
Worst Moment(s) This Week:
Nothing! Its been a nice laid back week and we passed our glucose test last week so that was awesome.
Looking Forward To:
I’ve got my 30 week appointment next week and my baby shower in my hometown! Can’t wait to see some old friends!
You’re so cute! Turkey sandwiches were guaranteed heartburn for me with both pregnancies. I had to completely give up turkey all together with Owen. Pregnancy is weird!!
So excited for you! Not much longer until you meet your sweet boy!!!
