Our Baby
This week our baby is as big as
an eggplant! Weighing in at about
1 ½ lb! The lungs are almost fully
developed and the nostrils are starting to open up which allows for some
practice breaths before birth.
How I am feeling:
I am feeling pretty great! I seriously do not have anything to complain about this week!

Mike and I went swimming for the first time this summer and
it felt great! I did get a little
ligament pain afterwards but I think it helped get my energy level up
again. I’ll most likely be buying
a pool pass for the summer.
The baby is kicking on a very regular basis already and
seems to have a schedule set!
Kicks early in the morning to wake me up, then stops after I eat
breakfast, starts again around 2 or 3, then stops for a nap around 4, tells me
to eat around 7, then stops after dinner, then starts up around 8-9, and I
think it sleeps throughout the night… hopeful thinking?
Physical changes:
I don’t know if I am overanalyzing things or what… my belly seems to growing at a constant pace but I feel like my hips and butt have once again doubled in size!

My weight gain for this week was
1.9 lbs for a total of +15.7 lbs!
Things I am
craving:
I’m still craving Eggo waffles and cranberry juice. Not too much news on this front!

Some things you don’t really know before getting pregnant:
1. You get back fat and love handles… I’ve heard moms talk about this but I never thought it would happen to me L
2. You get cellulite… I am hoping this goes away after the baby is born! Not to sound condescending but, I never knew I valued my body so much.
3. Once your bump starts getting large enough to tell you are pregnant… you join a secret community of pregnant moms. You notice every single one and they notice you.
