How Far Along: 27 Weeks
Size of baby: head of cauliflower (from Babycenter) Bennett likes to know what type of fruit or veggie the baby is the size of
Total Weight Gain/Loss: I didn't ask because I didn't want to know!
Maternity Clothes: Mostly maternity...I am running low on tops so I re-wear the same few things over and over
Gender: We aren't finding out! It is sort of fun not knowing. We are trying to come up with a creative way to tell people what we are having. Our girl name is Sarah Kathryn and our boy name is TBD. We've been throwing names around like crazy: Jameson, August (Neil likes this...but I said no months or seasons for names), and he mentioned Emerson today.
Movement: kicking and moving all the time. Lots in the early morning and evening.
Movement: kicking and moving all the time. Lots in the early morning and evening.
Sleep: I sleep really well except for my every 1-2 hour bathroom breaks
What I miss: pain-free living due to tail bone issues
Cravings: I have been loving cold fruit, salads, sweet tea, and CUTIES (I ate 5 in one sitting on Saturday.
Symptoms: Placenta Previa...my placenta moved! We found out last week! We are so thrilled by this news! I've been out of breath, dizzy, and having some heart palpitations. It was scary! I called the dr. and she sent me to the cardiologist. Thank goodness for MLK day because I had an appt. at 8:45 to meet with the doctor. I had an echo at 2:30 and they sent me home wearing a heart monitor for 24 hours. Yes, I had cords hanging out of my shirt. Of course, I didn't have any "episodes" during the monitoring, so we shall see. I felt pretty dumb at the doctor because I think it's just one of those fluke pregnancy things. Here is a picture of the monitor:
I was glad to get rid of it at 3:22 pm! |
Best Moment this week: feeling constant movement and knowing that our baby is healthy.
