30 Weeks | Our Little Zucchini | Baby Boy T#2

30 weeks

How far along: 30 weeks

How big is baby? Zucchini

Symptoms: Sciatica pain, acid reflux, round ligament pain

Maternity clothes: yeah and getting sick of wearing the same stuff over and over again. I’m ready for it to get cold for a bit so I can wear some of my long sleeve stuff!

Sleep: Meh. Waking up multiple times to pee or turn over. Going back to sleep is easy as long as it’s before 4am.

Miss anything: Being able to do normal activities without it kicking my butt. I hate having to sit down so frequently.

Movement: Yes, lots.

Anything making you queasy or sick: Nope

Have you started to show yet: Yuuup

Labor signs: No - just braxton hicks

Belly button in or out: In but it’s getting pretty darn shallow

Wedding rings on or off: Off for the most part. Wearing my 3 wedding bands is too much so some days I just wear 1 but most of the time none (more out of laziness than anything)

Mood? Good for the most part...just a LONG week

Looking forward to: Our 3D ultrasound and Thanksgiving & having the family all together!

Best moment of this week: Eli was sick from Saturday night until Wednesday so it was so good to see him feeling better & ready to go back to school on Thursday. Poor guy was asking to go to the park while he had a 103 fever & just couldn’t understand why we were saying no. I did get in my fair share of rare cuddles so I soaked those up while I could. But croup can suck it! Also - we FINALLY got the nursery almost completely put together - woohoo!!

30 Weeks...Our Little Cabbage

Baby T is the size of a Cabbage!

   

How far along: 30 weeks

How big is baby? Cabbage

Symptoms: Shortness of breath when lying in certain positions.  I’ve noticed I “over-do” it a lot easier these days and it takes a toll on my pelvis – luckily rest gets it back to feeling better. 

Maternity clothes: Yes – I am noticing a few of my shirts are starting to get a little shorter – uh oh!

Sleep: Still good – just getting harder to get in/out of bed when I have to go to the bathroom multiple times a night!

Miss anything: Not this week

Movement: Lots and lots of movement these days – baby better enjoy it because he/she is going to run out of room pretty quick!

Food cravings: Any kind of fruit

Anything making you queasy or sick: Nope

Have you started to show yet: I feel like this is a silly one to leave on here at this point

Labor signs: No

Belly button in or out: Not sure how but it’s still in

Wedding rings on or off: On

Mood: Good! I think I’m in full on nesting mode (but it’s not that much out of the ordinary for me – which is why the nursery has been pretty much done for weeks haha)

Feeling boy or girl? Still girl this week – Only 4 at my shower guessed boy so maybe that’s swaying me this week??

Looking forward to: Our new counter tops being installed! (I can’t wait to see the final product – but not looking forward to the mess) A relaxing weekend in Schulenburg with Tyler & Kristin!

Best moment of this week: My Austin baby shower thrown by my sweet friends – Ashley, Christine & Magan! It was such a fun celebration of Baby T! Also, we had our first birthing class this week…it’s getting real you guys!
