27 Weeks, 1 Day!

I can't believe this is the last week of my 2nd Trimester! Only 90 days left! It seems like just yesterday we were in the process of doing procedure after procedure, medicines, injections, surgeries... I feel truly blessed to be carrying this little miracle and to have made it this far! 

PREGNANCY STATS UPDATE

How Far Long? 27 Weeks, 1 Day

 

Size of Baby? Baby is about the size of a head of cauliflower! And can you believe he weighs a little over 2 lbs now? (Jack probably weighs more... I'm thinking he's going to be a big baby!)

Total Weight Gain? 20 lbs

Maternity Clothes? Both still, but more maternity now since it fits better, and looks better!

Sleep? This week I've been sleeping really hard! I've surrounded myself with pillows now-one behind me supporting my back and one in between my legs!

 

Food Cravings? Vanilla Iced Coffee, Banana Bread

Stretch Marks? None yet, but my tummy is definitely more itchy now!

Gender? BOY!

What I'm Looking Forward To: Dr. appointment next week

Highlight Of The Week: Getting some of the nursery artwork in the mail!

Weekly Wisdom: Don't worry about your weight gain or how big people say you are! If you're healthy, getting enough good nutrition and being active you are fine!

Milestones: Baby is showing brain activity! Babies lungs are capable of breathing air and baby is rotating around in preparation for birth!

 

Symptoms: Pelvic/low back pain. Peeing a lot! Maybe some mild swelling or water retention in my legs. And another really annoying pregnancy "symptom" I wont talk about on here. :o)

 

Belly button in or out: It is stretching out and starting to pop out!
