28 Weeks...Hello 3rd Trimester!




How far along? 28 weeks 
Total weight gain/loss: 21 lbs (+2 lb this week.) Yikes! I know I'm growing a baby and I'm supposed to be gaining weight but the numbers on the scale are getting scary! 
Maternity clothes? Look at how big my stomach is! There is no fitting into my old clothes!
Stretch marks? No
Sleep: I had some bouts of insomnia after bathroom breaks. They seem to be getting shorter, so hopefully it will be better this week!
Best moment this week: My best friend, Nicole, came to visit me this weekend and she surprised me by bringing MY SISTER!! I haven't seen either of them since I've been pregnant. We had such a great time filled with massages, manicures, pool time, and girl talk! Nala (our girl cat) even participated! I really miss having them so close and can't wait to see them again at my shower in 2 weeks!!
Miss Anything? Beer--I think this may be my answer every week from here on out because of football season!
Movement: Lots of little kicks and rolls. I still don't think I have felt hiccups.
Food cravings: Nothing really.
Anything making you queasy or sick: No!! (I have been really lucky with this)
Symptoms:Metallic Taste-This has been getting better lately! Heartburn-Tums helps, so it really isn't that bad. Lower Back Pain-Has its good days and bad days. Rib pain-I have been getting a pain on my right side for the past couple of weeks. I think it is where my muscles attach to my ribs.
Gender: It's a boy!!! We have officially decided on a name!!
Labor Signs: No
Belly Button in or out? I think it is as out as it is going to be.
Wedding rings on or off? On
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy!
Running/Walking? Walking the neighborhood. I am going to try and go on a long walk this weekend.
Looking forward to: This coming weekend is my last weekend home for a couple of weeks. I have a lot I need to get accomplished!
