Belly size:
Total weight gain/loss: Up 33 lbs. total - 166 lbs.
Maternity clothes? Yep, although I'm pretty amazed at all the non-maternity shirts I can still get away with wearing.
Food cravings: Granny Smith apples, Cinnamon Chex cereal, lemonade, root beer, peanut butter, almonds, milk, grapefruit
Anything making you queasy or sick: Anything with a really strong smell
Stretch marks? None
Sleep: I get up between 2-5 times per night to use the bathroom, switch sides/sleeping positions, get a drink of water, or just stretch because I'm so darn uncomfortable. I think all this sleeplessness is preparing me to be a mom!
Best moment this week: I can feel actual body parts protruding from and/or pushing up against my belly now, which is both bizarre and SO cool at the same time! She'll push really hard, I'll put my hand where the pressure is, and I'll feel a foot or a knee or something ... there is nothing like that feeling. :)
Miss Anything? Sleeping through the night and not having my big belly always getting in the way of stuff.
Movement: Like I said, she may be running out of room in there, but she is still movin' like crazy! Definitely one of the best - if not THE best - parts of pregnancy.
Belly Button in or out? Although it is completely flattened out, it is still an innie. Can't believe it hasn't popped! Maybe it won't ...
Wedding rings on or off? Both are off :( :( I hate not wearing them, but with the occasional mild hand swelling I get, I didn't want to risk not being able to get them off at all ... so they are safely tucked away in my jewelry box until after she's born and I go back to my non-puffy state.
Happy or Moody most of the time: Mostly happy, but I find myself being quick to tears in these last few weeks of pregnancy. A good cry (or several) is good for you, right??
Baby Stuff Purchased? A few more clothing items (I have a problem, I'll admit it) including a couple of sunhats and her very first bathing suit :) :), wall decor for her room, and her carseat canopy came in the mail - it's too cute!
