29 Weeks

Week 29

Size of Baby Walker 2.5 pounds = size of a beet! 

Symptoms  The traveling has made me a little more tired, but I don't feel like I've had any other new symptoms this week.  I think maybe I'm feeling a little more of the nesting lately.  I really just am excited to have my shower and be able to finish our nursery.     

Cravings/Aversions This is more just eating, but I've tried to eat at least 2 eggs every day at home.  I am trying to make sure I'm getting enough protein, and they have been a really easy lunch lately.  Other than that, I've eaten more sweets this week - oops!  I blame it on my travels, but before that I was doing pretty good.  

Exercise  I got to walk around the city on my trip, which was really nice to be outside enjoying the weather.  Not quite as many hills in the Oakland area, but it still felt great to walk around. 

Sleep  Still finding it easy to go to sleep, and I've only been getting up once a night to use the restroom.  I even slept well when I wasn't in my own bed, which I was surprised about.       

Best moment of the week...  It had to be the entire trip to see my bestie, Katie, in California.  We had so much fun searching for wedding gowns, celebrating Baby Walker and really just enjoying each other's company.  Katie's mom was out visiting too, so it really was the best weekend.  They even had a little surprise shower for me on Sunday.  It was very cute, and I got spoiled with macaroons on top of it!  It was definitely hard to leave today and crazy to think the next time I see her, this little bundle of joy will be here.  I also came home to the nursery painted and D working on building a shed in our backyard!  I should leave more often!! 

Changes  My belly is growing away!  Now you can really see where she is sitting and actually see my belly move when she kicks and moves.  D and I were lounging on the couch mid last week and we both happened to be looking when she made my belly move all over the place.  We both just laughed, it was pretty amazing.
