28 weeks...12 to go!



How far along? 28 weeks 5 days
Total Weight Gain: 17 lbs.
Maternity Clothes: Yep!  Just got some new pants as I’m alternating between three pairs, but I am done buying anything new with exception of maybe a shower dress!  Only 12 more weeks to go...I can hardly believe it!
Stretch Marks: Nope; still going strong and lubing up with my lotioning and oiling!
Sleep: Ugh, not well!  I think the dreaded third trimester sleep deprivation has started. The crazy dreams have ensued, but that’s to be expected eh?
Best moment of this week: Honestly, not a ton of great moments this week.  Slightly stressed, but realizing that I’m stressed, I of course try to turn off my brain and de-stress only leading me down the black hole further!  Damn my analytical, psycho-analytic OCD tendencies!  Oh, well- spring break is right around the corner!
Miss Anything? Honestly, this week and last week I really could’ve used a glass (or bottle) of wine to calm my frayed nerves, alas, I’ve resorted to raspberry leaf tea.  Not the same-AT ALL!
Movement: Oh yea, a ton!  This kid is definitely on a cycle- sleeps most of the day and is awake for food.  He/she can also do a gnarly round house kick to my rib cage!
Food Craving: Eh, I’m for the most part back to my old self with a slight affinity for sweets still.  
Anything making you queasy or sick? Pretty much everything, including water gives me indigestion.  Or as Juno would say “If it makes you feel any better, I have heartburn radiating from my knee caps.” True story, little lady, true story.
Gender Prediction: Boy
Labor Signs: None lately.  
Symptoms: Nope!
Belly button in or out? In- still hanging on!
Wedding rings on or off? On
Happy or Moody most of the time: Overwhelmed...
Looking forward to: Getting my GTT (gestational tolerance test) results back, selling our house, finding a permanent home for the dog, finishing the floors, fixing the door, finishing the nursery, having all boxes packed, moving half-way across the country, finishing this school year out, having the baby shower, birthing this baby.  All of the above are in random order of course.
