29 Weeks Pregnant : UPDATE!!

Well here we are, just about 10 weeks to go in this pregnancy.  GOSH!  That sure did fly by.

Feeling overall pretty good.  Getting bigger…as you will see below πŸ™‚

(If you want to follow the journey along with me, click each to see my 12 week, my 16 week, my 20 week  and my 24 week update. And, one of the funnest posts I’ve done, how I told Mike!)

So, onto the questions:

How far along:
*29 weeks

Total weight gain at 29 weeks:
*17 lbs….creeping in on my goal of 20 lbs overall…

Sleep:
*So far so good. Love the Boppy Total Body Pillow I have. Mike hates it. πŸ™‚ However, each and every time I move positions, I get a massive Braxton Hicks Contraction. That is not so lovely.

Best Moments for these weeks:
*Lili continues to want to come over and feel the baby. Every time she is moving, Lili asks to feel her. Now she is telling me she can’t wait to hold her! It’s just adorable. And Adalynn is pointing to my tummy and wanting to lift up my shirt when we talk about the baby.

Gender:
*A GIRL!! We still have a name and we still are NOT telling!

Food Craving:
*Still Mexican. And still donuts. πŸ™‚

What I miss:
*My deep breaths! I have had so many BH contractions lately that it seems like my deep breaths aren’t as deep.
*Second thing I miss is the running. I miss running. It’s starting to get beautiful herein Michigan and there are runners everywhere. I have recently started up with yoga, and I seem to really like that. So, it’s something for me to do πŸ™‚

Looking Forward To:
*I’m looking forward to meeting my sweet baby girl.  I can’t wait to see what she looks like!  I’m assuming she will resemble the others two, since they looked very much alike at birth, but you just never know!!  I’m also looking forward to a safe, quick and swift labor and delivery where both my baby and I are safe!

Symptoms:
*The doctor says I am measuring a little big, so hopefully that mean she will come on time or a little early.  Both my other girls were born on their due dates, so I’m not planning on that since the odds are crazy to already have that happen twice πŸ™‚
*The BH contractions are getting more intense. I’m not concerned about them, I know this is typical.  But gosh, it sure does take my breath away.  Seems like they are more at night than during the day, which I am thankful for!
*I have felt like the baby is lower, but it was definitely confirmed today when I had a friend say to me “Gosh, you have dropped girl!”.  Yah, I know.  I can definitely FEEL it! πŸ™‚  But it is nice to have someone noticed it and that it’s not just in my head πŸ˜‰

  1. Well, you have got one of the cutest bumps I have ever seen. So small and compact. Here's hoping that baby comes a tad bit early πŸ™‚

  2. Thanks Andrea!! I would be ok with anytime after 38 weeks!! πŸ˜‰ My babies are typically small, so I really don't want to go any earlier than that πŸ˜‰
