30 Week Update!

30 week Update

How far along: 30 weeks

Symptoms: Still have back pain and lots of kicking by the little girl. More recently, reflux - fun times

Total weight gain: around 12-13 lbs since the IVF cycle
o
Maternity clothes: Oh yeah :) and the occasional t-shirt, although they are becoming more like tank tops


Stretch marks: A few, they've tapered off

Sleep: Almost *always* wake up 1-2 times a night to go to the bathroom

Best moment last week: Waking up on Saturday night to Kaitlin doing what I am imagining are yoga poses in-utero

Movement: Lots and lots of kicking - especially after I eat something sweet

Food cravings: No cravings really. Still not a huge appetite but I do like brownies and anything sweet. I knew that sweet tooth would come back!

Belly Button in or out:i It's still an innie. I don't think it's going to pop out.

What I miss: Being able to walk, sit or stand for extended periods of time without my back hurting.

What I am looking forward to: My 2 maternity photo shoots this month. Also, my DC area friends baby shower this Saturday. We also have our baby care class on Sunday. After this month (June) there is NOTHING else to look forward to until the "big" day!

Milestones: Passing my Gestational Diabetes test. Also, getting my scheduled C-Section date of August 3, 2010. AND, now I'm on to the every 2 weeks OB appointments.

How is daddy? He's doing great! We're both getting very excited!

  1. So glad you finally posted something on 'Making Mavis'
    But, I am even happier that I get to be near you and see you often :-)
    I, (and I know you & Matt,) can hardly control myself (now that the wait & worry are almost over for the pregnancy), to meet Ms. Kaitlin!
    I wonder what what she will look like? I imagine dark hair & lots of it, teeny tiny toes/feet & fingers/hands with nails that will need to be cut as soon as she arrives! I know she will be the second most beautiful, perfect baby ever born, because YOU were the fist most beautiful, perfect baby ever born!
