Baby Size
No new measurements, but he was measuring 8lbs 2oz two weeks ago. I’m sure he’s grown a bit since then (hello belly!) and my doctor said she’s expecting about a 9 1/2-er at least. Holy smokes!
Cravings
Sweets! I would’ve given anything for a piece of moist chocolate cake this weekend. So weird, because I’m typically not a “cake” person. And I’ve been doing some major work on ice cream sandwiches this week – don’t even get me started!
Aversions
Still just anything greasy. I went a bit overboard while out to eat with family Saturday night and paid for it dearly. My stomach just can’t handle it. And I should’ve known better…
Symptoms
Heartburn and hormones. Story of this pregnancy! My pelvic pain was severe on Friday, but thankfully it’s eased up since then. Other than that, just feeling large and dealing with the indigestion and insomnia.
Movement
Landon is definitely a little mover! He kicks and jabs and stretches all throughout the day. It’s getting uncomfortable when he goes crazy and won’t stop, like while I’m trying to drive or something, but it just means that he’s doing what he’s supposed to and I wouldn’t have it any other way.
What I Miss Most
Being able to sit comfortably. I just can’t with this large belly, and it makes commuting to work (I have a 2 hour commute one-way) fairly difficult!
What’s Happening This Week
Final preparations for our little nugget!
What I’m Looking Forward To
Holding our sweet boy in my arms and finally seeing what he looks like. I’m going to soak in every single feature on his tiny body and love every part of him! I’m also really looking forward to Cory holding his son and seeing the look of pure love and joy on his face. Like, I’m tearing up (thanks, hormones) just thinking about it!
