29 WEEKS



How far along?  29 weeks
Total weight gain:  17.5 pounds. 
Maternity clothes?  Oh yeah.  Still probably about 50% of the time, but with this bulging belly, my pre-pregnancy shirts are becoming more like belly shirts.
Sleep:  Amazing and I hope it stays this way until the baby comes.  
Best moment this week:  Watching Conner play with his cousins and spending time with family.  That little bird always has a blast with those boys.
Miss anything?  I miss being able to get off the couch without giving myself a mental pep talk or getting up a flight of stairs without getting winded.
Cravings:  Honey mustard pretzels. I caved. I planned them into my nighttime snack last night just so I could have some.  I wanted to shove them all in my mouth at once because they tasted so dang delicious but I paced myself - one piece at a time. I still want to reach for that bag and start popping them handful by handful.
Symptoms:  Surprisingly, it's been a quiet week as far as symptoms go.  I've started to notice some Braxton Hicks coming and going more frequently especially if I go for a longer period without water.
Looking forward to:  Hearing this little baby's heartbeat at the doctor's office this week.  After this appointment, I'll start going every two weeks which will make the next couple of months fly by even faster.

I'm also looking forward to getting the nursery finished.  It really gets me excited now that I know what colors we'll be using and to top that off - I finished up the fitted crib sheet today! I'm so stoked to share pictures of the nursery with everyone after the baby comes.
