hello third trimester!

baby<3

*by this week, baby girl weighs 2 1/4 pounds (like a Chinese cabbage) and measures 14.8 inches from the top of the head to the heels.

she can blink her eyes, which now sport lashes. with increasingly developed eyesight, she may be able to see the light that filters in through my womb.
she's also developing billions of neurons in her brain and adding more body fat in preparation for life in the outside world.

how far along:

*28 weeks!

my dr's appt. 

*i had my glucose test yesterday. I couldn't eat or drink anything after midnight. I had my appt. at 8:30am they were extremely busy so I didn't get out of there until 10:30. I about died & I never want to drink that stuff again. but everything's good with baby girl! only 12 weeks to go! my next appt. is July 13.

weight gain:

*I've gained about 22 pounds so far. crazy compared to my pregnancy with jaden. 

symptoms:

*I have been pretty exhausted. (I've even took a few naps this week. if you know me..I'm not a napper!) a whole lot more back pain.

sleep:

*I've actually been sleeping pretty good. once little girl stops kicking me for the night I'm out until the morning. it's actually pretty nice(: 

movement: 

*she's going to be pretty active like her big bro, I think! 

food cravings:

*i haven't really been craving anything here lately. 

gender:

*girl. I had a dream that I went into labor and little baby girl came out as a boy. I have a 3D sono Saturday so we'll see (: 

looking fwd to:

*saturday! I'm ready to see some more of baby(: I watched the video of the 3D sono I got with jaden. he said he was crying in mommy's tummy. 

best moments this week: 

*picking up jaden from "meme" camp. he showed me what all he made and did. I'm glad he had so much fun with his cousins, memaw & great aunts! (: 

*getting to shop with michaela, my mom, aunt tracie & brother. we found some good things and GREAT prices!(:
