30 week bump update


Total weight gain: 20 lbs

Maternity clothes: I bought some fall/winter maternity clothes that are actually cute so I've been wearing them. Plus the pants are comfortable with the stretchy waist band.

Stretch marks: Using a combo of Palmer's cocoa butter, Mustela, and bio oil twice a day. It worked with Blake, so fingers crossed it will work again.

Sleep: I need more. I've been super tired lately. I've been waking a few times in the night to go to the bathroom. Insomnia is getting in the way of my sleep, sometimes I'll be up for 2 hours tossing & turning, trying to fall back asleep.

Miss anything? Sleep, not having to go to the bathroom every five minutes, raw sushi, and being comfortable in general. And a cocktail on a Friday night.

Exercise: I've been getting back in the gym as well as taking Blake to the park and my DVD workouts.

Movement: Yes! The kicks are super strong now and sometimes keep me up at night. I feel him a lot when I lay on my side.

Food cravings: Lately its been bagels, cutie oranges, pb&j sandwiches, chocolate chip cookies, and most recently strawberry frozen yogurt. I've been craving frozen yogurt from a place I grew up going to that I just found out closed five years ago... so no luck satisfying this craving.

Anything make you queasy/sick? I've been feeling good lately thank goodness!

Have you started to show yet: Oh yes the bump is pretty visible now.

Gender: Boy
 
Belly button in or out: In

Wedding rings on or off: On

Symptoms: Ugh... heartburn, sciatica pain, fatigue, and insomnia. My hair is growing fast which is awesome though.

Looking forward to: Getting the nursery put together. The rug got delivered today and its perfect. Unfortunately the crib and dresser won't be in stock until the end of February, but that gives us more time to clean out the room that has been our office. Also looking forward to getting a much needed facial and massage next week.

Labor signs: No
