Bumpdate: 29 weeks


Self timer app in the classroom after work, just so I can include a photo with today's post.


How far along: 29 weeks/seven months.  So close to meeting our baby girl!


How big is baby: 2 1/2 pounds and 15 inches long from head to heel - about the size of a butternut squash.

Weight gain: Still doing okay I guess.  Haven't weighed myself in a week or so.
 Sleeping: I keep having terrible leg cramps.  Ryan started off rubbing them and walking around with me and by the third night in a row he stayed laying down and said "I am supporting you from over here in the bed." I can't say I really blame him.

Food cravings: Icecream!!!!
Food aversions: Still potato salad. Ugh.
Other symptoms: The usuals-- leg cramps, mood swings, crying, waddling.    I also just feel a lot larger and it has been taking it's toll on my lower back.

Miss Anything? The energy level of the second trimester! I've been dragging!
Doctor’s appointment: None this week or last week.
Wedding Rings: Off.  I am scared to put them on now.  
Clothes: I don't have that many maternity pieces (money is tight and it is just hard to justify).   I am already tired of the same old same old, but I'm making it work.   I would rather buy stuff for baby or for Isaac than more stuff for me.
Movement: Lots! Especially at night and way down low where her head *should* be.  

Best moment of the week: I met up with two of my girlfriends Saturday and had a nice day of lunch and windowshopping.  Her baby is six months and is ADORABLE.
What I’m looking forward to: Thanksgiving break...
What I did / Got for baby:   Another pack of newborn diapers from a friend whose baby had outgrown them.  We should be totally set for newborn size disposable diapers.  I also got a few onesies and a Bumbo for free at the church swap.  Free is my favorite!!  And I can finally say that the front room is done being painted, although we are waiting to steam clean the carpets before we load all the furniture back in (hopefully Wednesday).
