Baby is now the size of a: honeydew! As of Thursday her measurements had her weighing 4lbs 2oz, which is in the 30th percentile. So she's a petite girl, but totally within normal range.
Total weight gain: About 23 pounds.
Maternity clothes: About half of the time. I wore my first pair of maternity shorts this weekend.
Sleep: Ugh! SLEEEP. I have a feeling I won't be seeing you for a very long time. My body appears to be preparing me for a newborn.
Gender: Girl
Movement: Lots of movement. SO fun!
Food cravings: Still lemon flavored things and sweet, cold things.
What I miss: Not being on bed rest. 4th of July beverages :)
What I'm looking forward to: Still looking forward to having that lamp delivered (where are you, lamp??) and finishing the nursery. It's soooooo close to being done!
Milestones: Another week down, another week still pregnant! Hooray!!!
Symptoms: Lots of movement, ever-growing belly, hunger, thirst, increased urination, fatigue, sleeplessness. All the same. Still.
Yesterday I had some painful contractions that got me a little scared. They calmed down with the help of fluids, and lying down in our air-conditioned bedroom, though. I'm finding that the heat really seems to trigger them. It's still not time yet, baby! Don't get any ideas.
On Thursday we had another OB appointment. Sono showed that my cervix is holding strong at 2.4cm, 50% effaced. That represents a 0% change since last week so we were thrilled. Next goal - 34 weeks!!!!
