- Size of baby: About 17 inches and about 4 lbs. About the size of a jicama.
- Symptoms: Back pain, and Sciatica! Breathlessness, heartburn, peeing more and finding it harder to get up off the floor now.
- Fetal Movement: Limited today, I think she's growing again, or she's really run out of space. Today I didn't feel her move until almost 2 pm. I went into L&D for a non stress test, and they finally managed to wake her up. When she did wake up she went straight to her MO: painful jabs. I've never related pain to my children moving inside me before, but this kid is killing me! I've also never had such an active baby! I'm scared....
- Sleep: If I could get to bed at a decent enough hour, and K1 would let me sleep in by an extra 30 minutes it would be great.
- Cravings: Spaghetti noodles tossed in olive oil, some parm and some creole seasoning. Sourdough bread. Water. And of course still needing those weekly Dr. Pepper Slurpies and occasional tins of Wintergreen Altoids.
- Best Moment this Week: Mother's day gift shopping. I know it sounds a little vain, possibly tacky, but I'm so happy to have my new 10 dollar throw pillows on the couch. Plus it was nice to be up and about, moving around, and dealing with the clingy K1 (she's going through an attachment phase).
- What I Look Forward To: The baby shower, finally getting my hands on my new diaperbag, and meeting K2 of course!
Oh Baby To Do's: This weekend I started washing K2's clothes in the baby detergent. I also got a few blankets and the ring sling in there as well, After the baby shower I'll do some more laundering and will include the bouncer lining. I also have to clean the car seat, boppy and swing at that time,
I also need to clean and polish the crib, pack a hospital bag, and clean the room up.
In other news... K1 will be 17 months this week, come Friday. Keep an eye out for the update!
