29 Weeks!

This week has been an interesting one. I was told how big I was getting, and then after telling them how far along I was, was then told that I was small for 29 Weeks. Ok, make up your mind he he :)

I had a doctor appointment this week and was informed that I have not gained any weight in the past month and they are kind of concerned about it. But it wasn't a doctor I've met before, so in 3 weeks, I'll get more details I hope.

Been getting frustrated a LOT more than usual lately, especially with the fact that none of our animals listen to me anymore. Whenever Jaren is around, they are for the most part good and listen to just him. When he's gone, they are horrible and don't listen to me and I'm really having a hard time handling it.

I am still riding my bike around and it is SO much easier than walking. I have less then 10 minutes in between classes to get places and riding my bike I can usually make it with a minute or two to spare. I walked the other day when it was not great weather, and it took 15 minutes to get to a class!! Then that night I was hurting SO SO SO bad (round ligament pain). People keep telling me I need to stop, because it could get dangerous, and I do agree and have given myself a deadline for when to stop riding, but not sure if I'm really ready for the added stress of always being late to classes (I attract enough attention now anyways...)

Well here are my pictures from this week. There is a nice difference from last week. :) The baby was laying transverse when I took these, I guess a new favorite position, because it's been happening all week and sometimes the baby pushes on the wrong places and it hurts a tiny bit.

Jaren you rock my socks :)

So Jaren took me out to lunch yesterday and he was reading the labor and delivery part of the book, and what is says for the support person to do. First he read what each part included and it was put as in talking to the pregnant woman (you will then feel this, and that and the other, etc.). He all the sudden looked up at me and said "that's going to happen to me?!?!?!" Of course he was joking, but it was so cute and dumb..I love him :)

Wow am I really 7 months along?

This week I am 28 weeks, 7 months pregnant. Only about 85 days until my due date, and I have been having a rush of emotions. Excited, scared, nervous, ecstatic, mellow, etc. You name it, I've probably felt it today :)

Our baby is being a real stinker lately, and only moving when no one is watching, including me!!! I feel them, but not catching them in time lol. Today though the baby was moving and I caught it, and then grabbed my phone to video it and then...nothing!!!! Grrr, luckily soon the baby won't be able to hide anymore!

Nightmares. Wow. The last few nights I've been having horrible nightmares or various sorts and last nights was so real I woke up freaking out. The dream was that I was going into pre term labor, and when I woke up I seriously thought I was for a minute, and then realized it was just a dream :)

I was told multiple times on Sunday that I didn't look 7 months pregnant, but more like 5 or 6, what do you all think?



Ok, ok, here's a better picture for you all to get a sense of my growing bump :D



Things seem to be going ok, having a lot of Practice Contractions (aka Braxton Hicks, but I think it's weird calling them that, I mean where did that name come from anyway? It's weird to me...) The other night I had 8+ in an hour, but after a blessing and rest, I was fine.


At least I can still kind of touch my toes, and squish the baby...oops!!

Weeks 25 - 27

So I started writing a blog at 25 weeks, and never got it done lol. First, school has been crazy and midterms happening and bike accidents that sent me to the ER (luckily everything turned out ok).

Anyway, things are going well and I'm loving the baby movements and not loving the increased mood swings. I think next week during Spring Break I'll actually have the time to write more than this. A lot is happening and I really need to record it, so next week is the week!!
