Week 29 was a great week. We had a church conference and a lunch with the church that turned into a baby shower. They gifted us diapers, wipes, and bottles. We were very blessed and makes me look forward to my baby shower next weekend and my diaper shower at work.
How far along? 29 weeks 4 days
Total weight gain/measurements: 1 lbs this week, 28 lbs total
Maternity clothes: Yes. All maternity clothes are in full rotation. I have been rotating larger tunic style shirts and wearing larger sleeveless shirts with light sweaters to make my wardrobe stretch. I hate to purchase new clothes that I probably won't wear anymore past being pregnant.
Stretch marks: None new. Been using lots of whipped Shea and coconut butter.
Sleep: 8-10 hours. Preggo pillow and without.
Best moment this week: Our impromptu baby shower given by our church.
Miss anything Champagne. We are having Mimosa's for my BFF bridal shower this weekend and I know I'm going to be like why can't I have a sip. LOL Counting down until my celebratory champagne when Maxwell gets here.
Movement: Yes, lots of movement as he grows. He continues to move from head down to feet down to feet side ways and in between. It really doesn't matter to me if he ends up breech or not because we are having a c-section. I just much rather him kick me in my ribs than my lady parts. LOL
Food cravings: S'mores. Yes, I did make some.
Anything making you queasy or sick? No acid reflux since I've stopped eating pork and drinking regular milk. Lactose milk has been working great.
Gender: Boy
Name: Maxwell or Max
Labor signs: None
Symptoms: Braxton Hicks contractions. These kinda scare me because I never had them in my first pregnancy, leads me to believe that he may come earlier than our scheduled c-section date. I pray that he comes when he is ready and I will continue to ask God to give me peace as we get closer to being full term.
Belly button in or out? In
Wedding rings on or off? On, lots of swelling this week due to me not drinking water after I go to the bathroom. Call me crazy but I re-hydrate myself after I use the restroom and I did not do that this weekend so I woke up on Sunday looking like a puff ball. LOL Lesson learned and I will continue to keep a 24 pack of water in the car when we travel from now until Max comes. We only have this weekend's trip left to travel to Va, and two more trips for me to Smithfield for church until Max arrives.
Happy or moody most of the time: Happy! I am looking forward to the doctors setting a date and time for delivery. I am also looking forward to what August has to bring including baby shower and finalizing the nursery.
Looking forward to:. My ultrasound for 30 weeks on Friday. I'm excited to see how much he has grown from my 26 week update. I will share how big he is next week. My BFF Bridal shower this weekend August 2 and my barbecue baby shower August 9.
