26 weeks

Another week has come and gone and we are almost in August.. Which means November is coming quickly! I feel like every single week I write about how fast time has flown by. And it really has.

Gage and I have been working the past few weeks on getting the nursery set up and it’s really starting to come together. Last night I decided to wash the clothes and blankets that we already have and started putting them away. It was so exciting finally getting to put everything somewhere! And once again, it’s becoming very obvious we have WAY too  much 3 and 6 month items!

How far along: 26 weeks

Next appointment: tomorrow.. I finally have questions to ask my midwife! and I’m terrified of stepping on that scale and seeing the number..

Any new aches/pains: still low back and hips.. other than that, I feel great

Maternity clothes: all the time! I even had to break down and order a few pairs of scrub pants in a bigger size because my old ones just aren’t cutting it anymore!

Sleep: we don’t get along at all.. basically the routine goes, toss and turn, eventually fall asleep, wake up to go to the bathroom at some point, get back in bed, toss and turn, Gage wakes me up when he goes to work and I go to the bathroom again, this is when I feel like I got hit by a truck and my lower back and hips are so achey, get back in bed, toss and turn, get kicked 8 million times by the baby, then finally fall back asleep for about 2 hours, wake up and feel like a truck hit me again.. and no matter what position I fall asleep in, I always seem to wake up on my back

Best moment this week: Gage and I went and bought a chair for the nursery this past weekend.. it’s exciting because once we get that in there, we’ll be able to put the crib exactly where we want it, then hang the pictures above it!

Movement: all over.. definitely feeling rib kicks and kicks on the right side a bunch.. the newest movement was when the baby started kicking my cervix yesterday.. I have to say I do NOT enjoy that feeling!

Food cravings: still cereal.. other than that, I don’t crave anything..

Belly button: hasn’t really changed much this week.. still an innie for now..

What I miss: sleeping comfortably!!

What I’m looking forward to this week: my 3 day weekend and hopefully painting the corner cabinet in the nursery

Weekly wisdom: I don’t have any.. I’m too exhausted!

14 more weeks to go!
