Finally there is a little bit of a bump to document!
How big is baby this week? The size of a prune
Due Date: June 28th, 2012
Weight Gain: Do we have to talk about that? We just hit the 3.5 lb mark...which is strange because obviously a prune doesn't way 3.5 lbs. I can think of a couple of other places that weight might be going.
Symptoms: Today and yesterday my nausea has been pretty infrequent, which is a nice change.
Cravings: Lots of fruit. And grits in the morning, yummm.
Sleep: Ehh, ok. I wake up at least 4 times a night but when I'm asleep I am out cold, so that's good news!
I miss: Being able to go into Abbie's room. The smell of the paint plus all of her little girly perfumes have kept me and my nausea out of there for weeks now. We moved prayer time to Mommy and Daddy's room, which is actually kind of nice!
I am looking forward to: My midwife appointment tomorrow! And this bump getting bigger so it's more obviously a baby bump and less likely perceived as a beer belly.
I'm spazzing about: Being able to go into labor w/out induction this time. I'm afraid my body doesn't know how!
Best thing about this week: My baby boy turned 3 yesterday, and my love was off work to celebrate with us!
Milestones: All vital organs are fully developed! Pretty big accomplishment!
Movement: Not yet, maybe in a few weeks. That would be a PERFECT Christmas gift!
It's a...: ?
Exercise: We walk every day to pick Abbie up from school, but after today's sermon on gluttony and making our body a temple for the Lord, I will be trying to get some more movement in!
Diet: Lots of fruits, and cheese. I went through a peanut butter and beef jerky phase a few weeks ago and now that sounds disgusting. So we will see how long fruits and cheese lasts!
Other goals: Just remembering that this baby is the Lords, not my own. He is in his hands, and not mine! Repeating this to myself, about every 5 minutes, when worries and fears start creeping in.
