30 Week Update

6:29 PM




How far along: 30 weeks! Only 10 weeks to go!

Gender: A sweet, little girl!

Weight gain:  I'll know next week if I've gained anymore weight.

Symptoms: I've felt some heartburn and nausea mainly because my stomach is being squished. I think that has been the most uncomfortable thing. Luckily it isn't severe or all of the time. I grunt a lot more when I have to get up off of the couch, but I don't feel that big yet. I've also been nesting a bit this week.

Belly button in or out: Out.

Sleep: I did have a hard time falling asleep one day this week but overall I am still sleeping well. I am still taking naps every day because I'm exhausted all of the time.

Best moment this week: This week hasn't been eventful, but I would say the best moments would be thinking about having Isla here. Robby and I are seeing a lot of baby pictures and videos lately, and they just make us so excited to think we will have our own sweet baby here pretty soon.

Worst moment this week: I had a dream that I was just a surrogate mother for another couple, and I wasn't going to be taking home my baby with me when I give birth to her. I cried so hard in my dream and woke up so relieved when I realized I was dreaming. I also read a couple of really sad stories about a couple of babies that made me worry about my baby girl. I just need to focus on the positive and not worry about things I can't change.

Miss anything: Just the same old stuff.

Movement: Her movements are all over the place now. I used to feel most movement on my right side, but now I feel it on both sides at the same time. I'm also constantly feeling what I think is a knee or elbow (could be a foot) pushing hard against my belly. I'll push back and she'll move it away. I love following her movements around my belly.

Cravings: Nothing

Looking forward to: My baby shower! Two more weeks!
