How far along? 27w2d - 68% complete!
Which trimester are you in? Last week of the 2nd trimester!
How many days until your due date? 89 days!
How big is baby? Weight of a head of cauliflower.
What milestones has your baby reached this week? Baby girl should now be sleeping and waking at regular intervals (I definitely can tell when she's awake and sleeping!). She's also opening and closing her eyes now :)
What are some of your pregnancy symptoms? The physical therapy has been helping with the pelvic pain, luckily! It's not as bad as it was before. I've been SO tired lately and also feel like I constantly have heartburn! I can't eat anything without feeling it :( And also, my belly is SO itchy and lotion hardly helps!
Any cravings? Ice cubes, omg. I craved them during my first pregnancy. But they have to come from a restaurant or anywhere with an ice maker, the ones I make in the freezer in a tray aren't what I want... :( Also craving smells (weird, right?) Even weirder, the smell I crave the most is the smell of a damp towel, so weird! I craved it my first pregnancy too. The midwife thought it was funny the last time, so I'm not too worried about it. I just get funny looks from my husband, lol.
Any food aversions? Nope.
What emotions have you experienced this week? Mostly happiness. :)
Are you wearing maternity clothes yet? Yep!!
Have any stretch marks? I see a new one coming in :(
How much weight have you gained? I keep forgetting to weigh myself when I wake up... lol.
Belly button in or out? Half in half out, lol.
Wedding rings on or off? On.
Felt any movement? Yep!
Gender? Girl.
How has your sleep been? I wake at least once or twice, and sometimes can't fall back asleep.
Are you nesting? Nope. No energy! I'm just waiting for it to happen, lol.
Labor signs? Nope! Just braxton hicks!
What was your best moment last week? Spending time with my husband's family. We all got together for Korean BBQ, yum! :)
What are you looking forward to this week? Our nephew's birthday party and Valentine's day. Nothing special planned, but we'll probably pick up Chipotle. It's been our go-to for Valentine's day and our anniversary the past two years. I'm a cheap date. I even told me he can buy me chocolates the day after Valentine's day when they're on sale, lol!

 | Comment from stephc2010 » Posted Feb. 10, 2016 10:55pm Thanks, I'm glad it's helping too! It's not completely gone, but it's much better than before! :) My problem is that I constantly want to eat or be snacking, so I end up with constant heartburn and it's just terrible! I never had it during my first pregnancy. Also pretty sure I've been feeling some hiccups, too! :) I wonder if this baby will be like her older sister. My first daughter had the hiccups multiple times a day, lol! |
 | Comment from Libelula264 » Posted Feb. 10, 2016 1:54pm Glad to hear the PT is working! I'm right with you on the heartburn! It's hard to eat a lot at one time. I think I felt hiccups the other day - what about you? |
