27 Weeks

Week 27

Size of Baby Walker 1.8 pounds = size of an rutabaga! 

Symptoms  Still feeling this little girl all up in my ribs.  I swear her butt sits in-between my ribs half the time.  I'm not sure how she is so darn high up.  I also have been feeling more stretched lately with her growing.  Mostly when I sleep, but I've also had some annoying back pain (mainly I think from being in the car so much the last few weeks).  It's made finding a comfortable sleeping position harder.  

Cravings/Aversions  Well, I'm going to try and reduce my sugar intake for my 3rd trimester, which will be hard.  I think it will mostly be refined sugar, but I should probably add more veggies in my diet.     

Exercise  Other than some nice puppy runs/walks, I haven't gotten out much.  I wanted to go to yoga today, but my client schedule wouldn't let me, so I'll try and do some stretching in the mornings and at night before bed. 

Sleep  Like I mentioned above, the back pain has made finding a position more difficult.  I've slept pretty good once I'm asleep though.    

Best moment of the week...  New Years Eve was fun.  We got dressed up and just went over to a friend's place for dinner and to watch the fireworks.  We did make it to midnight, but then enjoyed sleeping in on New Years Day.  2013 was such a wonderful year for us.  I can't wait to see where 2014 takes us.       

Changes  We have started our Hypnobirthing classes, which I'm loving.  It's all about changing your way of thinking about labor and birthing.  I'm excited for the possibilities and want to have such an amazing birthing story.

Looking forward to having a weekend with no meetings scheduled!  I haven't had one of those in a while, and I'm looking forward to getting some more things done in her nursery!
