Third trimester? Really? I can't help but feel like it was just yesterday that I told Brent he was going to be a father. What a great time its been preparing for Oliver to arrive. In only a few weeks my entire world will be turned upside down. I'll be resigning from my job to a full-time mom in addition to birthing a baby. I don't know what this new life will be like, but I already love it!
How far along: 30 weeks today!
Symptoms: Tired! Heartburn is almost daily.
Total Weight Gain: 13 pounds!
Maternity Clothes: I added a few new ones to the rotation.
Stretch Marks: Remember those static plasma balls? Just sayin…
Sleep: It’s better than it has been. Part of that may be due to kicking the 160 pound dog out of the bed.
Best Moment This Week: Having Oliver respond to certain things I do.
Movement: His most active time is around 9:30 p.m.
Food Cravings: Orange juice.
Belly Button: Still an innie.
What I miss: Having a closet full of clothes that fit!
What I am looking forward to: I have my first baby shower this weekend. I’m looking forward to seeing everyone and seeing all the cute baby stuff! I’m also looking forward to seeing the Parinatologist again to see if Oliver is still measuring off the charts in weight and length. At 28 weeks he was measuring 31 weeks and about 3 to 3.5 pounds!
Milestones: 3rd Trimester and 30 weeks! I also found out at my 28 week appointment that Oliver is no longer breech and has moved into birthing position. Here's hoping he stays put!
How is Daddy?: Ready! He talks to Oliver at night which generally results in a kick-a-thon!
How are the Grandparents?: Supportive! Brent and I (and Oliver) are truly blessed in this department!
Stranger Encounters: The man that runs the Moe’s in my office building asked me when I was due. I told him Nov. 5 and he said, “Ohhhhhh!”
