Weight Gain: 26 lbs
Gender: Baby Cole is a BOY!
Maternity Clothes: Still mostly wearing regular clothes. I still only have one pair of maternity shorts, 6 maternity shirts and a dress. I bought a pair of Gap maternity jeans since the weather is getting much cooler.
Belly Button: Out
Symptoms: Some swelling in feet and hands. Can’t wear wedding rings anymore!
Cravings: No real cravings at this point.
Sleep: Still waking up 1-2 times a night to use the restroom. Hips still cramping up while sleeping and still uncomfortable to move around at night.
What I miss: Still missing cold sandwiches and an occasional apple cider!
Movement: Lots of movements still noticed during the day, especially after eating. Some movements at night, but nothing that wakes me up. It’s definitely awkward, but so surreal, to feel you flip around in mommy’s tummy. It is so amazing and your daddy thinks it’s so cool!
Best Moments of the Week: I had another doctor’s appointment on Friday. It seems that every two weeks seems to come very quickly. This only means that you will be here soon and we cannot wait to meet you! There was nothing new at this appointment. We just listened to your heartbeat and she measured my belly, of which is still measuring two weeks larger. In a couple of weeks we’ll have one last sono to check on your size. I imagine your growing like a weed. After my doctor’s appointment mommy went to pick up my mom and aunt from the airport.
On Saturday, we had our Baby-Q. Again, everything turned out great and we feel so blessed! We didn’t play any games at this co-ed baby shower, because mommy thought it would be cheesy for guys to be playing baby shower games. Everyone had a good time just talking eating and playing corn hole outside. It was supposed to rain that evening, but we lucked out and it was dry! We got lots of awesome gifts that will be sure to get plenty of use.
