33 Weeks Pregnant
49 days to go!

(it was very easy to take my belly pics this week :])

(my belly now is round at the top, look!^)
measuring 37 1/2" around

I officially have a giant pregnant belly
that does not fit in my baggy shirts
and bumps into everything!

Its scary to think its going to probably double in size by the end!

and as you can tell from the pics my dark line is definitely there..

just not very dark.

still going to the gym, getting much harder though.

going swimming everyday that I can
however I cant swim without a floaty..
(it hurts my belly and chest and gives me heartburn)

she is nonstop movement these days
we all love that :D

shes still in head down position and measuring perfect.

were down to 2 week appointments!

7 weeks left.. 4 weeks until i'm full term.

oh my gooosh.

8 MONTHS
32 weeks pregnant

(excuse the tan line and t shirt marks..
and the awkward belly button)

measuring 37 1/4" around

a very busy, productive week
(must be nesting).

bought my first maternity clothes
(shorts, shirts and hospital outfit)
chose our hospital
chose some birthing/breastfeeding classes
(debating whether to stick with them or not)
made our birth plan
finished and hung her nursery wall letters
bought a crib mattress
rearranged our room to fit everything!
put together her crib
and got it all cute and ready for her arrival :)
made her a picture frame (need to make more though!)
got a pedicure (not such a relaxing experience, but turned out cute!)
took her "swimming" for the first time,
now just need a "maternity" swimsuit for the rest of the summer :)

so much more too!

oh and for me? I'm so very uncomfortable.
(sciatic nerve pain from hell!:)
but enjoying these last weeks..
because this pregnancy is gonna be over before i know it!

yay, only 56 more days
of having to sit with a water bottle against my spine!

31 weeks pregnant

measuring 37" around

She moves so much now,
I feel like she never stops :)

Got my first charlie horse this week
(which was followed by a second one, ooouch!)

Finally bought maternity clothes!
Just one pair of shorts.. :)
So big, but super comfy!

*Baby Projects*
I started making her name letters that I will hang above her crib!
I'm almost done with them and very satisfied with how they're turning out.
I also have a picture frame that I will decorate to match the letters.

and.. later I will start making her baby blanket!
All I have is an idea for that though :)

and now getting to the hard parts..
-making our "birth plan"
-choosing the right hospital
-looking at birthing classes
-figuring out insurance

blah.

ONLY NiNE WEEKS TO GO

30 weeks along

May 8th, 2010
30 weeks pregnant

(totally got lazy this week with my belly shot,
and couldn't find my marker)

measuring 37 inches around

cant believe I'm 30 weeks pregnant!
man is it going sloooow though.

she always has an arm or leg sticking out (and i can see it sticking out!)

too hot outside to go on my walks, so I've started going to the gym.. which I love!

my belly button is starting to pop out :)

and my biggest (and maybe my only) craving so far has been ice water and skittles!

29 weeks along

May 1st, 2010
29 weeks pregnant

measuring 36 1/2" around

my stomach seems to be a lot smaller at times..
and than other times it looks giant, idk.
it has definitely changed in shape
(the largest part is around my belly button, not under it now)

legs go numb at times
back hurts when I sit up
cannot at all sit comfortably in a chair
heartburn
nausea in the car
shes still moving like crazy :)
still exercising without a problem, but bending down is beginning to hurt.

this week seems to be the start of the 3rd Trimester
"uncomforts" of pregnancy for me.

*painted my nails for the first time this pregnancy*
and for sure my last time during this pregnancy :D
