Hey Everyone!
Today I wanted to share a pregnancy update! I think sharing my updates on here rather than in vlog form is a lot easier especially since things change so subtle week by week. I cant believe we are this far along!! I will probably be sharing updates every 2 weeks as this belly grows and grows!
How Far Along: 28 weeks 6 Days. Tomorrow I turn 29 weeks!
How Big Baby Is: Somewhere between 2.5 and 3 lbs already! 16inch in length about the size of a coconut!
Gender: Baby GIRL!
Movement: She is moving Day and Night. Shes got the wiggles for sure. Some movements I swear have been so aggressive it startles me! She also gets the hiccups about twice a day!
Sleep: Throughout this entire pregnancy, sleep has been hit or miss. Sometimes I sleep great and sometimes I'm up all night....unfortunately last night I was up all night.
What I Miss The Most: I miss clothes of course. I actually miss my normal jeans. I also miss diet coke and any caffeine in general.
Maternity Clothes: I just shared THESE jeans yesterday on my insta-story. They are great! I also have been wearing THESE maternity tees which are such a good deal and super comfortable! Also I wanted to share THIS non-maternity dress that I have been loving!!!
Cravings: Actually not a ton....I had a craving for chili the other day and puppy chow but I think thats more fall related. Every time football season comes around I am ready for chili and puppy chow. Don't Ask haha. Besides the chili, I have actually had some serious aversions to anything spicy.....even things that have a little spice. I just want to eat bland food.
Feeling: This pregnancy overall has been a little rougher than my first. I have really good days and some not so great days. I find that if I can keep myself busy the bad days aren't so bad. I had a spout of really crazy Braxton Hicks contractions around 25-26 weeks. They have kind of slowed down and I only get some at night now. I think I was dehydrated before which is NOT good. I feel so much bigger this time around so it just makes things harder to do! Overall though not too bad.
Appointments: I just had my glucose test this week. All results came back healthy and good. Everyone always freaks out over the glucose test and I don't think its that bad. I also had to get a T-dap shot and a Rho-gam shot because I have a negative blood type. I hate shots...UGH! The doctor also told me its time to meet every 2 weeks! Ah I can't believe we are at that point already.
Doing: Well I mentioned last week I was so behind on baby nursery. Well I have made major progress due to Labor Day Sales haha. We are using Eli's crib since he transitioned to a twin bed. The dresser my mom is re-purposing....which she is so crafty and I can't wait for you all to see it! I also got her glider, a pouf, a mirror, and a cute vase. I need a couple more things and we are set! I want her room very minimal and not cluttered. I want it to be a sweet warm space but not feeling like there is stuff everywhere.
If you have any suggestions for great baby gear, let me know in the comments or on IG!
Always,
Erin
