Almost 27 weeks, here I come third trimester!

Yikes! Third trimester starts next week and it's kinda stressing me out! My excel spreadsheet of lists is keeping me sane though :) My belly button has popped out as far as it can go I think. I am getting some back pain and lots more movement from our little boy! I need to be exercising a lot more than I am, so I'll be working on that this week. My also-pregnant sister-in-law is visiting this week and it's fun having two pregnant girls in the house! She is only about 2 weeks ahead of me!

24 weeks, 5 days

The big news this week is the wattlet is now strong enough to move my belly around visibly! It's fun watching for belly wiggles every night before we go to sleep.

Nursery update

With Brandon as leader, and the help of Picote the French chicken, we assembled the nursery dresser. It will double as the changing table. Also, the crib arrived Friday! So we will put that together and then get some more pics of the room progress.

23 weeks, 6 days






Pregnancy update: I'm feeling pretty good. Some days are better, some are worse, but I'm enjoying the sixth month of my pregnancy overall.  I have gained 15 lbs to date and my belly button is an innie in the morning, and an outie or something in-between for the rest of the day. We are trying to read aloud more often. I wake up a few times a night, usually just to turn over and get re-situated, but it's not too bad. I feel like I'm getting used to being pregnant! I like carrying him around with me all day and feeling him move around.

ouch!

Pregnancy is no piece of cake! I guess no one ever really said it would be! I think my pelvis/pubic bones are widening more today...ouchy. It sure feels like that at least. Or maybe it's just ligaments stretching, who knows. Also, Sunday and Monday I had bad fatigue and fuzzy brain, but today that seems to have improved. It's a good thing, because I'll need energy for our shopping spree tonight! Because of scheduling conflicts, we had to move our shopping we had planned for Sunday to tonight. We'll be heading up to West Elm, a giant baby store, and Ikea...I hope we survive!! I'll try to take a belly pic tomorrow morning so I can post that update. I hope we come back with some good stuff!


Oh, and I'll also add night time leg cramps to the list! Ouch!
