28 weeks!

How far along? 28 weeks 3 days

Total weight gain/loss: 20! eek. and thats before the weekend. still waiting (hoping?) for the scale to come down a bit bc of water weight and such. i definitely can tell i'm starting to retain water cause of my foot swelling!

Maternity clothes? all maternity pants, probably 70% maternity shirts at this point. my go to non maternity shirts are getting too short! :-( 

Symptoms:  my right foot is swelling like about every other day. i'm not sure if it has to do with the heat wave we've been having or what. i've also got some side cramps. kind of like when you run after you've eaten. those type of cramps. :-/ so it makes walking annoying. besides that everything else is pretty okay. 

Sleep: still pretty normal. i've learned that i sleep best on my right side. turning in the middle of the night is a big pain tho. i have to do it slowly or else i get pains. i've been waking up early on weekends still! i wish i could sleep in just 1 day!

Best moment this week: officially in the 3rd trimester! i was telling some coworkers i only had about 11.5 weeks left and when i said it, it just seemed like sooo little time! omg! but everything is good. bought the crib and its coming tomorrow!

Movement: had some quiet movement days this weekend. i think the more active i am the less active the baby is! its starting to pick up more today. but its still not very strong. mostly just nudges and flips. not sure if this baby is gonna be a calm baby or if its cause of my anterior placenta still! 

Cravings: anything with sugar!

Anything making you queasy or sick: just broccoli

Labor Signs: Nope

Belly Button in or out? Innie but the belly button is starting to stretch out!

What I miss: sleeping in! walking without pain! not swelling! :-/ 

What I am looking forward to: finishing the nursery hopefully this weekend! we just have to set up the crib and the wall decal. and for the most part it's done.. need to buy some organizers and start organizing all the baby stuff. also its the start of the 2 weeks appointments! i'm sure that'll make time move faster!
