Week 30 Update

Another week has come and gone and I am finally down to the single digits of weeks left (9 weeks 5 days)! This week is Halloween and I have a feeling the holidays are going to really make everything fly by. It was a pretty uneventful week as far as pregnancy goes and I can't wait to have my doctor's appointments closer together because that means it's almost time to meet Charlotte!
 
 Didn't realize my gut was in the way of the "C"....#pregnancyproblems
 
How far along?: 30 weeks, 2 days
Baby is the size of a: Cucumber
Total weight gain/loss: 30lbs
The Bump: Ever growing
Symptoms: Normal aches and pains of being 30 weeks pregnant...swelling, sleepless nights and back pain
Food Cravings: Nothing in particular. Just sweets after my meal
Anything Making Me Queasy or Sick: Nope
Sleep: Getting more and more restless every night. I tend to wake myself up whenever I need to switch positions.
What I miss: My fall wardrobe. Don't get me wrong, maternity clothes are definitely comfortable and cute, but I just don't have the extensive selection that I do with my regular wardrobe. It's my favorite season for fashion and sometimes I find myself staring longingly at my old wardrobe in hopes of being able to fit into something.
Weddings Rings On or Off: Off, not even chancing putting them back on
Any Names Picked Out Yet: Charlotte Noel
Gender Prediction: Girl!
Movement: Still tons and tons of movement. I love it!
Maternity Clothes: Nothing new and exciting this week. Trying to get through the next few months with what I have. The only thing I need to purchase or acquire is a maternity coat.
Labor Signs: None.
Best Moment of the Week: My mom bought a glider a few months back as a reading chair and is letting us borrow it for the nursery! It's basically on a temporary long term loan.
What I’m excited about/looking forward to: My sister is throwing me a baby shower this weekend and I'm so excited to see people I don't get to see on a regular basis!

  1. You look amazing! Those last weeks dragged for me. I went into labor at 32 weeks and they stopped it, again at 34 and they stopped it and then at 38 weeks I finally went into labor naturally. Nature has a funny way of working like that. ;)

  2. You're doing great holding your weight at 30 girl! I hope you find a coat for cheap - I know exactly how you feel with wanting to make it with what you have.
