Here we are at 28 weeks! Obviously you'll be able to tell looking for yourself from the pics... but have I told anyone how huge I feel?? We've really been packing on the pounds and growing just the last 7 weeks.
Everything seems to be going great with this pregnancy though. Our baby's heartbeat is always strong and right on track and we are both measuring great! And here is our little man at 27 weeks! We were able to do a 3D ultrasound, but once again due to his hands always being up by his face, we weren't able to get any clear pictures. Every ultrasound we have had up to this point, he always has his left hand by his face (so cute, but not great for getting good face pictures:) We are already so in love with him and can't wait to get him here!
Some of our other pregnancy facts:
- He is constantly moving around... like crazy (and it never gets old, we love it)
- He is usually most active at night and right when I get home from work everyday
- I miss sleeping on my stomach so bad, but am really getting used to the routine of tossing and turning from side to side every night :) I think the lack of sleep is only preparing me for the future.
- Palmer's cocoa-butter is a nightly ritual and has been since day one. So far it's working like a charm, but who's to say these last weeks won't throw us for a few surprises (I'm crossing my fingers though)
- I think we've finally decided on a name.... but you'll all just have to wait for that :)
- It's always fun to feel him move, but it's been so crazy feeling him kick on one side and punch on the other (supposedly he's around 16inches right now, and due to mine and Coby's genetics... he has the chance of being a tall fella)
- I am so anxious and excited to get his nursery all ready. My sister is so close to finishing the bedding, and this next week we are picking up the dresser and chair..... and then the decorating will begin! I can't wait. His nursery is going to be so cute!
- I still haven't really had any cravings (I don't think), other than constantly wanting Apple Jacks cereal and banana cremies when I was in my throwing up days.
- I can't wait to see Coby with our little one- he is already so great.... with rubbing the cocoa-butter on most nights, beaming everytime he gets to feel him move, still can't forget those weeks of Coby bringing me food/breakfast in bed every morning to prevent me from throwing up and being nauseated, and him getting so excited to set up the crib (which he did the day after we bought it) dresser, etc. He is going to be such a great daddy!
- And have I mentioned how excited we are to get our little one here??? It's all we think about. We can't wait to meet our little Baby K!
I can't wait till he's here either, I want our little guys to be buds. And your right, your little man is going to be one tall fella. You two are going to be one awesome mama and papa lol. Love your hair!
ReplyDeleteSuch a fun post! I can relate to so many things that you wrote. I was good on the stretch marks until the last 2 weeks so I hope your luck is better than mine ( I hear they're the new fashion though :) And the lack of sleep totally prepares you for the first few months. I am also a tummy sleeper so I understand there too. Hang in there and keep loving every moment! I can't wait to see his nursery!
ReplyDeleteI totally miss the activity in my belly so just love every minute of it. You don't need to worry about how big you feel, because you are seriously so tiny!! That is so neat that you got to do a 3D ultrasound, what a cool experience!!
