How far along? 28 weeks pregnant. I’m slightly freaked out to think that in less than 10 weekends, Leyton could potentially be here. I’ve learned that you are considered full term at 37 weeks. In case you missed my last update, here’s my 27 week update.
Maternity clothes? Maternity clothes pretty much exclusively except for a really cute kimono I just bought in the junior’s section on clearance for $15 at Dillard’s while we were in Tampa!
Stretch marks? No.
Other Body Changes: I mentioned to the doctor last week that I’ve started getting occasional sharp pains that if I breathe too deeply come shooting in in parts of my belly. It’s kind of shocking and then it goes away. He told me that it’s pretty normal for “little people like me” (yes, I think he’s a saint for making that comment right now) as my abs get pushed out and start pressing my rib cage out. Apparently, those pains will become more frequent as I get larger. Eek.
Sleep:Â Good except for the allergy attack I got in Tampa. Something must be blooming down there that doesn’t agree with me. I’m waking up coughing right now and going to the bathroom once a night is now becoming a thing…
Best moment this week:Â Â So many! We went down to Tampa to enjoy some time with Eric’s family. When we arrived, Eric’s parents had decorated their house with blue streamers, blue cupcakes and gifts, so fun!
My sister-in-law and I hit up SUCH a fun spin class at Soho Cycling Studio that was super fun and motivating. Maurice taught and it just felt like a dance party the whole time until you were done and realized how much you were sweating. We also enjoyed a dinner cruise with Eric’s parents and some fabulous beach time.
Movement:Â Still lots of movement.
Gender: boy…Leyton Samuel.Â
Symptoms:Â Feeling bigger by the day. Bending down getting tougher.
Wedding rings on or off? OnÂ
Mood:Â Relaxed.
Looking forward to:Â Excited for the hubs to start his new job.
Fun interview. I spent eight years in the Tampa Bay area before moving to my beautiful San Diego. My parents split their time between there and Miami (my hometown). Great area and sorry for the pollen. You look great by the way!
What a fun trip with Eric’s family! Leyton barely shows in your tank top! What a fun party they had prepared for you! Glad you got away and glad you are back home 🙂
