28 Weeks

How far along? 28 weeks Total weight gain/loss: 11 pounds Maternity clothes? Starting to wear some of the things I bought, but I am trying to wear most of my other clothes for as long as I can!

Coffee and sushi. Movement: The movements continue to get stronger and more frequent. Food cravings: Nothing that I don’t normally eat. Anything making you queasy or sick: Nope. Have you started to show yet: Yes. Gender: It’s a girl! Labor Signs: Nope. Belly Button in or out? In. Wedding rings on or off? On. Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy! Looking forward to: 29th week ultrasound May 10th.

I had an appointment last week, but it was just a check up. The doctor said everything is looking good. I have to go in next Tuesday for lab work where they will check for anemia and gestational diabetes. Then I go back for an ultrasound May 10th. We have not seen 'baby b' since I was around 18 weeks, so I am really excited to see how much she has grown and how different she may look!

The decorating can begin!

We ordered the crib, dresser and glider/recliner for Baby B's room last week and it came in a few days later. Gregory put together the crib. Here are some pictures of the furniture. Now, we can start planning on how we want to decorate/paint her room.
