27 Weeks - Third Trimester!


Size of baby: head of cabbage

Total Weight Gain: 9 lbs total

Continuing symptoms: I Feeling more confident in my maternity clothes now that the bump actually looks and feels like a baby bump. Lower back is really starting to really ache. Not only do I have to pee frequently but when I go to the bathroom I only tinkle. My feet ache after wearing shoes and walking for extended periods of time. Getting harder to roll over from side to side.

New symptoms this week: nothing really new. Feeling bigger every day and continued swelling and back aches. A lot of movement this week.

Sleep: Not as sleepy as the first 26 weeks. Going to bed later and feeling rested when I wake up. Usually pee at least 1 time in the middle of the night.

What I'm Eating: Propel water, hamburgers

Cravings: Trumoo chocolate milk, Souplantation salad (not homemade)

Grandma gift this week: 4 new outfits: ladybug, bumble bee, blue and yellow flower, and brown and pink polka dot, nursery rhymes book, black dress shoes, and white baby tights

Special pregnancy moments:  Heather and Cathleen both felt baby kick this week. She has been moving like crazy. Wore a maternity dress with leggings to work today for the first time.  So nice to give the belly bands a break. I miss my low rise jeans. Thinking about getting a larger size in normal jeans to see if they are more comfortable. Got some more comments on the bump this week from stranger. Got advice from a lady at Souplantation last night to say whenever I want/don't want something... blame it on the doctor. The doctor wants it this way!
