How far along: 30 weeks. Ugh I was dreading going from the 20's to 30's. It means I am running out of time pregnant and that the sleep deprivation is right around the corner. I really like sleep. :)
Total weight gain: Up 16 pounds. I feel like I have gained a million though. But since baby is around 3-3.5 pounds I guess I am not doing too badly. He is also around 16 inches long. Destructo was 20.5 inches when he was born and 7 pounds 1 oz. I wonder if this baby will be bigger or smaller. I have gained far less weight thus far with this pregnancy. We shall see.
Maternity clothes: Yeah after wearing my yoga maternity pants all through pregnancy with Destructo and never stopping, I am sad to say they have a hole in the knee. It is my mission to find another pair very similar to them. I love them with an undying flame.
Stretch marks: I have a few new ones on my hips. Please let my stomach be spared.
Sleep: Crappier this week. Mr. Destructo has been working long hours and I don't sleep as well when he isn't home.
Best moment of this week: Getting the newborn clothes out of the attic and getting them washed. This was actually keeping me awake at night. I mean I still have two months, but for some reason (nesting maybe) I had to have it done now now now. But geez talk about making it real. I open the nursery closet door to see teeny tiny newborn clothes hanging. And I swear to you that they have shrunk since Kai was born. Surely he wasn't that little.
Miss anything: Not going through a roll of toilet paper a day. Easily getting into and out of the floor with Destructo. Being able to pick up and hold Destructo easily.
Movement: I think he has finally turned and is head down. I have felt a lot of higher movement today than I have previously. I also felt hiccups today for sure for the first time. I am curious to see if this baby gets them at the same time every day like Destructo used to.
Food cravings: Right at this moment I want Chili's queso dip. Badly.
Have you started to show yet: Yeah I am almost full on waddling now.
Gender: Bouncing baby boy. Or as Destructo said "another stinking boy." I wonder where he heard that since it wasn't from me. ::glares at my mom::
Labor signs: Braxton Hicks a lot this week. Some are even so painful I have to stop what I am doing and breath. I try to look at it as hopefully my body is good and ready for labor when it starts.
Belly button in or out: Out yuck.
Wedding rings on or off: On although it is getting tight on certain days.
Happy or moody most of the time: Overwhelmed and stressed all week but that is mainly stemming from Mr. Destructo working crazy long hours and not being around much. It is hard to chase a 2 1/2 year old while 30 weeks pregnant and makes me so tired.
