{Wowsers... that's a big belly and it's only going to get bigger! YIKES!! haha!}
How far along?: 33 Weeks!! Only 7 weeks left!!! Yayyy!!
This week, Baby E is the size of a: DURIAN FRUIT! (Hmmmm... I've never heard of this kind of fruit before!)
Maternity clothes?: All the time! Momma's getting big, so there are really no other options!
Total weight gain/loss: Well, at my last appointment, I actually lost 5 lbs.! But, I think that's because at my appointment before that, I had gained "3 lbs. too many." However, that appointment took place in the afternoon (all of my appointments have been in the mornings AND it was after a very big Mexican meal), so the doctor thought I was retaining water. He said I'm right on track! Whew!!!
Stretch marks?: Not yet, but I think I can tell where I'm going to be getting some. Weird!
Sleep: Been sleeping pretty well. Waking up fairly early (even on the weekends!), so apparently God is preparing me for the arrival of our sweet bundle of joy and the many sleepless nights to come! hehe. :)
Best moment this week: Maternity pictures were this past weekend! So fun and can't wait to see the final pictures!! Also... we bought my new "mom car" this weekend!! Sooooooo exciting!
{Getting pampered for 2 reasons: 1. Maternity pictures AND 2. Growing a baby is hard work and this momma needed it!}
{Curled my own hair for maternity pictures (that's a first! ha!) and Momma's new car!}
Movement: We have an active little peanut on our hands!!! hahaha! Food cravings: Nothing specific! I have definitely enjoyed having some more healthy cravings this week! I haven't really been horrible, but it's nice to have healthy cravings and not worry! HA!
{Starbucks obsession... always have a craving for that! Also, my somewhat healthy cravings: Greek yogurt w/ PB granola, smoothies, and PB, banana, and chocolate chip baked oatmeal... yum!}
Have you started to show yet?: Uhhhhh... I'd say yes! What do you think??! hahahaha!
Labor signs?: Nope, not yet!
Belly button in or out?: In still. Well, at least for the time being!
Wedding rings on or off?: Off. :(
Happy or moody most of the time?: Happy, for the most part! However, I have my moments!
Symptoms: All the same ones!
What I miss: I would really like a cold sandwich (with the warmer weather and all!).
What I'm looking forward to: Baby showers! Getting our house more organized (We're having a garage sale with my parents and we can't wait to get some of this stuff out of our house!)! Getting more work done in the nursery!
Milestones: (Based on a pregnancy app) This week, your baby will begin developing folds on the cerebral cortex of the brain. Full development of this part of the brain won't come until beyond teenage years. Right now, it means your baby is getting better control of localized functions. This translates to the ability to live outside the womb. Your baby spends most of the day and night sleeping and your baby's skin is finally changing from red to pretty pink. Your baby is dreaming and you may notice from time to time that they startle easily should you hear a very loud noise. Sometimes, they may even startle from a dream they are having during REM sleep in utero.
Weekly wisdom: Make sure you are staying well-rested and hydrated!! That's all I have for ya this week! Sorry! haha.
Finally got around to getting some pictures together from our baby shower on 4/26/14! See below!! Such a cute and fun time!!
{Baby E's great grandma and grandmas at the baby shower! Also, all the lovely hostesses for the shower! Loved all the super cute decor!!!}
We love you, little man!! Can't wait to meet you (very soon!)! Hugs and Kisses *Love, Momma and Daddy*
