Oh, and there's that whole "getting ready for baby" thing...this week alone we toured the hospital, I had a meeting with my boss about maternity leave and I had a doctor's appointment.
I'm getting things crossed off the list and time is flying by but I definitely think I bit off more than I can chew.
Anyways, here's what me and the bump are looking like this week!
Nugget this week...
*250 milligrams of calcium are deposited in baby's bones each day!
*Her lungs & muscles are continuing to develop
*Her head is getting bigger to make room for that big ol' brain of hers
via thebump & babycenter
somewhere around 2 1/2 pounds and 15 inches!
Total Weight Gain/Loss?
22 frickin pounds. bah.

Maternity Clothes?
I am still swearing off maternity clothes! But with fall coming I may have to break down and get some damn pants.

Best Moments?
Visiting our friends Erik & Andrea who just welcomed their baby boy, Vincent, on July 13th. It was so amazing to talk to a couple who JUST went through labor and really get a first hand account and words of wisdom for labor and the first few weeks with baby. PLUS, snuggling with a 5 week old baby made me SO excited to get my hands on my little nugget!

Movement?
Oh yeah, still squirming in there...Nugget isn't quite as active but when she moves SHE MOVES!
She is booty droppin' like a pro in there!

Anything making you queasy or sick?
I may never be able to eat chicken again...and most other meat isn't appealing but just chicken makes me want to spew.

Nausea/Vomiting?
I puked at the hospital before our tour...but that was thanks to nerves and anxiety, not baby.

Symptoms?
Still an angry back, but I've found some stretches that give me some temporary relief, so that's been great.

Labor signs?
I think I had my first Braxton Hicks contraction. I was at work and out of the blue I got a cramp that felt like I was getting my period...then after about a minute or so it was gone. But with all the weird crap that happens when you're pregnant...who knows!

Sleep?
I've had a busy mind this last week, so it's taken me a little while to get to sleep BUT once I am asleep...there's no waking me! Well, except for trips to the ladies room.
