How far along? 27 Weeks
Gender: Boy
Total weight gain/loss: 23 lbs and some…I’ll find out more deets at my doctor’s appointment on Monday!
Maternity clothes? Oh yes…mostly maternity bottoms and leggings and my usual tops…stretched to the max. The weather is just taunting my desire for maxi skirts and dresses. I think a small little summer shopping spree is in order soon.
Stretch marks? Nope! Phew!
Sleep: Sleep is okay. I can’t seem to get comfortable and as an avid tummy-sleeper, my bump is in the way. I’ve been pretty exhausted in the late afternoon. I feel like it’s first trimester exhaustion hitting me but with much more weight to carry. Aaaaand I still have 12 weeks to go…
Best moment this week: My week has been incredibly busy with work and hubs and I have been avidly working on organizing our home and putting together furniture for Baby B. I think the best moments this week are literally the evenings spent at home with my darling husband watching the Jays (yay!) and putting together furniture and enjoying eachother’s company. I am so excited to see my boys together; I don’t know if my heart will be able to take it! I am feeling very emotional and happy this week, ha. Oh, AND a wonderful moment this week was going to see a Jays game with Aaron and our dear friends. And even though I’d have killed for an over-priced tall can of Bud Light Lime with a straw at the game, it was pretty great to enjoy our favourite team in some really amazing seats (thank you Aunt Karen & Uncle Lem!).
Have you told family and friends: Yes!
Miss Anything? My energy. My mobility…putting on shoes is a whole other level of weird uncomfortable lately. My ability to stay up late and work on creative projects.
Movement: Yep!
Food cravings: Milk. Orange Juice. Caffeine-free root beer. A cold beer. Apparently, I am craving liquids only?
Have you started to show yet: Um…definitely yes.
Labor Signs: No, thank goodness!
Belly Button in or out? Still in-ish.
Wedding rings on or off? On!
Happy or Moody most of the time: So happy I could BURST!
Looking forward to: Other than my baby showers, as I mentioned last week…meeting my little dude is at the top of my list! I’ve been having wild preggo dreams and last night, I met our sweet dude and he looked like Aaron’s mini-me. Heart eyes for days. I woke up teary-eyed and PUMPED!
This weekend will be pretty relaxing and I’m looking forward to it. I’m sure hubs and I will continue to work on the nursery and slowly get our home baby-ready! Third trimester, I am so ready for you!
What are your plans for the weekend? I’d love to hear what you have in store!
XO
