Size of a head of lettuce!

How far along? 26 weeks

Total weight gain:

 17+

Mostly maternity

Stretch marks? 

No

Sleep: 

For the most part it’s good with my 16 pillows.

Best moment this week: 

Being back in Charleston where Jamie and I met :) Putting the mattress in his room with the sheets on it! The room is coming together slowly.. 

Miss Anything? 

Not that I can think of!

Movement: 

He is moving everyday- usually lots of times during the day. I love it! I have felt some very big body parts and movements lately. A little painful when he gets kicking at my hip bone. 

Food cravings: 

SUGAR!! Anything sweet! I hate this craving. 

Anything making you queasy or sick: 

Chicken. 

Gender: 

BOY!

Labor Signs:

Pretty sure maybe one-two Braxton Hicks but what do I know?! Supposably they are happening.. says the books.

Symptoms: 

This week was great! I can’t be on my feet too long and I def. get tired easily. This weekend I was in my friend’s wedding and afterwards I pretty much slept all day Sunday. Jamie kept making fun of me but I was so TIRED. Carrying around 17+ pounds is exhausting! 

Belly Button in or out? 

The top part is out. EKS! 

Wedding rings on or off? 

On! Maybe getting a little snug. Boo.

Have you started to show yet?

Yes. If I wasn’t at this point I’d be worried!

Happy or Moody most of the time: 

HAPPY!!! :))) 

Looking forward to: 

Getting the glucose test over with. Pre-registering at the hospital (little scary). Working on the nursery. 

Workout:

Same.

Furry Babies:

They loved exploring the mattress box!

Of course they both have to be in it at the same time..

To dos:

Finish dust ruffle. I have list of things to buy.. 
Done:
Pediatrician appointments made! Almost all the cleaning supplies have been bought- buy one get one free!!! We were shocked by how happy that made us..

Organic of course. We also got the laundry detergent and drier sheets. We are trying to buy things off the registry most people won't buy.

Worries:

I don’t think I have any at the moment. Time is really starting to fly by so maybe getting everything done. 

Chiropractor:
So I have never been a fan of popping or anything to do with a chiropractor but desperate times call for desperate measures :) Actually I have read about how much is really helps pregnant women. This Dr. specializes in pregnant women so I thought I would try it. I went to the chiropractor Tuesday who said: my pelvis is all out of sorts- one side going back and one going forward this is causing all kinds of problems in my spine. And because my hip is twisted it is causing my ribs to twist and turn out of line- she said a little bit longer and they probably would have popped out of place (awesome). Of course my neck had issues too which is probably part of my migraines. We can't tell if any of it is from my accident because they can't do x-rays. Anyways so she is realigning everything to give Jackson more room so he won't be hanging out of the right hip anymore! And so hopefully he will turn and position the right way when it's time. She said I should start sleeping better and she wasn't kidding. I didn't wake up one time last night!!! My hip didn't bother me at all and no leg cramps. It was a miracle. I feel awake today! I go back on Friday.
