Pregnancy Highlights:
How Far Along: 30 weeks
Size of baby: 15.7", almost 3 lb
Total Weight Gain/Loss: 17 lbs
Maternity Clothes: Still some regular tops and loving those maternity pants.
Gender: Leaning towards boy, but won't know for sure until the big birthday.
Movement: I think I may have gotten my first kick in the ribs yesterday. It tickled more than anything...at least for now. Baby moves quite a bit and stops as soon as I tell someone to look or feel. Must not like to be the center of attention *smile. And someone has been getting the hiccups quite regularly lately as well.
Sleep: Takes a few minutes to get comfortable and then I'm out like a light until usually 5:30 am.
What I miss: In addition to being able to do more cardio, I miss being able to sit comfortably at work (back issues) and bend to do anything that requires bending.
What I WILL miss: So much...everything has been so new and exciting and I've loved sharing it with Tom. I don't ever want to forget what all these firsts (first hearing the heartbeat, first movement, first ultrasound, first showing, etc.) I think I will miss just being pregnant in general - I have loved it!
Cravings: This week I am loving oranges, blueberries and cereal, but don't really "crave" anything in particular.
Symptoms: Braxton Hicks contractions, crazy emotions, dropping things sometimes multiple times, losing my balance, feeling absolutely stuffed after five bites, back achiness, and being very thirsty.
Best moment this past week: Finishing the nursery!
Exercise: Usually running a mile/walking a mile, lifting with the hubby and biking 2-3 miles depending on how hard I want to work *smile. I was even brave enough to attempt swimming laps this past weekend, but got to the pool and it was packed with kids. Must have been family swim or something and I wasn't about to strut out there in my stretched out Speedo. Maybe next weekend....
