Week 30
How far along? 30 weeks, 1 day (can you believe it?!?! We’re so
close!)
Baby is the size of a: large
cucumber? Baby should be nearly 3 lbs and 16 inches
Total weight gain:
21 pounds. The doctor told me to back off carbs and sugar just a bit, but from
what I’m reading everywhere, I’m at a perfectly normal weight! But, I’ve been
trying to eat more fruits, veggies and protein.
Maternity clothes? Yep.
Stretch marks? Still
none. I’ll probably be the woman who suddenly gets a road map on her belly the
day before baby arrives.
Sleep: Still sleeping a ton. I’m exhausted!
Best moment this week: Baby sales! We are officially DONE buying all the
big ticket items for baby. Just a few more boring things to buy for me, like
huge pads, breast pads, lanolin, etc.
Miss Anything? Being able to walk without the feeling of a
baby bouncing on my bladder. Not pleasant.
Movement: I can see him
moving under my skin now—more than just little jumps. It’s a little freaky, but
I like knowing that he’s still active and growing.
Food cravings: FRUIT. Give me all the fruit.
Anything making you queasy or sick: Still beef!
Gender: Boy!
Labor Signs: None.
Symptoms: Mostly
been dealing with heartburn and difficulty breathing—although we went up to the
timberline of the Rockies and I managed to breathe ok even in that high
elevation!
Belly Button in or
out? In, and I think it
will stay that way.
Wedding rings on or off? On!
They only swell occasionally. This mild humidity is fantastic.
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy. Things are finally coming together with
our move (we might have found a house!) and I’m starting to feel calmer. Also,
I’ve been very happy because 2 close friends welcomed their daughters into the
world this week and I’m so excited for them. Welcome to the world, baby girls!
Looking forward to: Moving in 33 days!!!
