week 27 : Cauliflower

14.5in and 2lbs


Baby
This week your baby looks like a thinner, redder, more wrinkled version of what he will look like at birth, but in the next few weeks more fat will fill out his appearance. Your baby's immune system is continuing to mature as are your baby's lungs which are still practicing breathing amniotic fluid.

Last Week
- becoming more and more uncomfortable!!

- we moved all of our stuff from one of our storage units to the house. the garage is now slammed with stuff.  have no idea where to start and only have about 6 weeks before i'd like to have it done.
- ended with Easter, loved spending with extended family and watching the girls have an egg hunt. can't wait until next year when Will is with us. i look forward to having my family complete!



This Week
-my drs appointment is thursday, which i'm not really looking forward to b/c i have to take the glucose test. yeah me... 
- after this week i will start my 3rd trimester... now there is something to look forward to. 
- this week will end with my weekend retreat with my aunt! can't wait to get away and hopefully get some good rest. most of these ladies that we go with will be scrapbooking all weekend. i'm not sure what exactly i'll be doing. i just want to get away. i won't even mind if i'm bored for 2.5 days.

tonight vic and i were hanging out listening to music and decided to let Will listen to a few of our favorite songs. it was very funny that he seemed to be the most active while listening to Offsprings Pretty Fly For A White Guy!!  maybe all the other songs were soothing or maybe he was just enjoying listening!

week 24 : papaya


3 more months to go... really???

this has been the longest pregnancy EVER!!!

at last weeks check up i had gained 4lbs so that makes 6lbs total so far.
she said that my uterus was measuring a little large and they'd have to check it again next month. could be that Will is too big but could also mean that i've got too much fluid. NICE!!   so of course i googled it and it looks like a lot of times it was just that the baby had a growth spurt so until my next appointment i'm not going to worry about it.

cravings : still nothing out of the ordinary!

i've been really sick for the past couple of weeks. sinus infection and bronchial infection, so with an antibiotic and my inhaler i can finally breath. while pregnant with both the girls i never had to take any medication except for the occasional tylenol so this time i feel terrible that i've had to take a lot of medication. but at the same time, the dr said that not getting enough oxygen isn't good for the baby either. so i'll do what i have to!!

He is a kicking machine. best moment was when Vic could finally feel him kick! i love when vic and i can share that intimate moment together, just watching Will kick from the inside. we can't wait till he gets here!!

Last tuesday we closed on our house and moved on saturday so it's been a busy week!! I've painted the girls room and that's it until baby gets here (well i will do his room so never mind)
