27 Weeks With Baby D#2

Pregnancy Highlights

How Far Along:27 Weeks!

Total Weight Gain: 20 lbs. Seriously...I think my scale is broken:)  This whole pregnancy I've always weighed about three lbs less at the dr. than I do at home so I'm going with that to make me feel better:)

 Maternity Clothes:All maternity at this point except for my own yoga pants, a size too large capri jeans, and a few shirts.

Best Moment this week: Dan putting together the baby's crib.  It made me get excited and motivated to get his room done.  Too bad I can barely do anything to get it done.  Dan has to paint and do the closet floor before I can get my hands on anything.

Gender: BOY!

Movement: Yep, all day off an on.

Food Craving: Two weeks ago I became extremely hungry for about six days.  Little guy must have had a huge growth spurt.  I can see it in my belly as well.  Now it's slowed down and I'm getting to the point where I can't eat as much food at once and have to eat smaller portions since I'm running out of stomach room. I'm craving healthy food like chicken, fruits, and veggies.

What I miss: The ability to work-out how I want to, but it can wait.  This is more important:)

Sleep: Good.  I have the occasional night where my arms and hands fall asleep a lot.  The past couple of nights I've almost had to get up twice to pee instead of once, but I force myself back to the sleep the second time.

What we are looking forward to: A rummage sale?  Ok, so maybe not looking forward to it, but we still don't know if we're going to do it next weekend or not.  I think we are both scared. We could really use the money to buy furniture though for the little boys room. Maybe we are looking forward to it being over:)

Symptoms:This week I have started to finally feel my belly getting in the way.  I tried to paint my toenails and it was hard to breathe.  I am more tired here and there than normal.  Last night Dan, Svea and I were all laying on the floor.  Dan was reading bedtime stories to Svea and I kept falling asleep.  Svea would dive onto me though and wake me up.  Can't miss a good story especially is it's "Danny The Dinosaur".
