I had one of the most stressful weeks this week. I ended up in tears not once but twice at work and with all the gloomy weather, my phone was malfunctioning, the air pressure in my tires got low again along with several other unfortunate events...I felt like the world was crashing in on me. Jamey had to listen to me after work pretty much every day complain about this or that. When I'm unhappy, I'm pretty miserable to be around. But thankfully, the week started on an upward climb yesterday and now it's the weekend! Jamey and I will be resting...something that I've heard enough times to do by now that I guess maybe we should try it.
How Far Along: 26 weeks!
Size of baby: About the size of a head of lettuce
Sleep: I slept better this week, even woke up in time for work today without an alarm (it never went off) and felt pretty good!
Total Weight Gain: I think about 12 pounds. Baby weighs 2 pounds for sure now.
Symptoms: Heartburn, weight gain, but much less pain this week!
Movement: Sam moved ALL the time...I don't even know if that baby ever slept. But this girl barely moves. I try to stay calm when I don't feel her for hours, but she wakes up maybe 3 times a day and kicks me only a few times and goes back to sleep. I don't really like this lack of movement.
Maternity Clothes: I wear everything maternity now, and it's a good thing I found a sale online this week...I got about 10 items (for spring) for $100! They were having a BOGO free and I'm so excited to wear my new clothes when the weather warms up :)
Go-to eats: Everything. Just not really sweets at all, this girl does not have a sweet tooth. My stomach gets upset with pretty much any sugar so I try to stay away....I try.
Best moment of the week: I had a pretty rough week, so I'm going to say it's tonight. Jamey's out picking up Chinese food and we're having a Walking Dead marathon.
Gender: We're having a little girl!
What I wish people knew: I truly appreciate the things that people do for me. When I have a meltdown at work and a hand on my back with words of comfort, or when friends invite us over and feed us dinner :) I just feel so incredibly blessed. We had a great conversation with friends last night who asked details about Sam...and I just love it because I don't really have as many opportunities anymore. People ask if we have the nursery all set up and if we are just SO excited. Of course we're excited. But no the nursery is not all set up...to be honest I don't think it's set in that we are going to be bringing a baby HOME yet.
What I’m looking forward to: We are having a shower in a couple weeks! (1 of 2 because we couldn't fit all our friends and family in one place....the second will be in April.) And I still do not have my registry totally done yet...mostly because I don't think I've really thought of everything we might need. Oh well, things will get done! :)
Oh and here's what I look like right now...sorry about the lighting.
Even more interesting, I have a couple 3D pics of baby girl:
We'll start the votes now...who does she look like?
