size of the baby: a mango – 6.0 inches & 8.5 ounces (getting so big!)
gender: still unknown – but we find out NEXT WEEK!!
maternity clothes: the maternity jeans are quickly becoming a staple as fall is approaching but otherwise, still wearing the usual clothes and using the belly band & opting for flowy options.
movement: nothing discernibly the little, but have more aches and ligament pains
sleep: I’ve been using my body pillow and that has been great to support my back! Still waking up to pee & having some interesting dreams, but otherwise sleeping well.
nursery: still pinning & day dreaming of what we will do! I’m getting some favorites for each gender & I know I want to have a mix of neutrals and a pop of color. Planning shall be in full force come next week!
craving: nothing really except pumpkin everything still (though I’m not sure this has anything to do with little one…)
symptoms: itchy, emotional, tired. Life is throwing us some curves in the realm of business and family health so I think these things are just exacerbated b/c I just feel a bit drained. Also pregnancy brain is kicking in for sure in the short term memory standpoint!
glenn is: having some health issues of his own, so he’s not been feeling top notch. We’ve actually been in the hospital since Thursday, so no regular bump picture this week & why this is later than usual too. We are hopeful with the new medication he’s been put on that he will start feeling back to normal and will be discharged soon!
looking forward to: Next week! Wed we have the 20 week ultrasound, it’s my 30th birthday & we are having the gender reveal party over the weekend. We just can’t wait to find out what our little nugget will be!
best moments: while this has been a rough week, our friends and family have been incredible as has both of our employers/coworkers. We are very fortunate to be surrounded with so many loving & caring people!
*not the usual bump pic, but here is one I snapped from my brief stay at the house for Halloween & trick or treating!
