How far along: 27 weeks!
Total weight gain: 1 pound in the last two weeks.
Maternity clothes: 90% time
Stretch marks: Just a tiny red mark near my belly piercing. I don't even have a mothers line! (yet)
Sleep: Whats that?
Best moment of this week: Shopping! Dropping $1,400 on baby stuff since we won't be have a baby shower nor getting help - Jared has been a god and really bought most of all the stuff on the registry. Hubby is amazing. It was his tax returns and he could have blown it on himself, and he didn't. He got a pair of work boots and a lot of it went to his son.
Miss anything: SLEEP.
Movement: SO much movement. My belly looks like something is literally trying to come out of it at times… - In my ribs or on my bladder.. he loves to move!
Food cravings: Back to fruit and smoothies. And white chedder popcorn.
Anything making you queasy or sick: Just my glucose test this morning. YUCK. That drink is nasty.
Have you started to show yet: Duh
Gender: Boy!!
Labor signs: Still just the Braxton Hicks. Lot's of back pain and muscle pain....
Belly button in or out: The top half of my belly button is out, bottom half is now starting to finally creep on out- I find it so amusing to touch. It's so soft! lol.
Wedding rings on or off: Off. Fingers are just swollen.
Happy or moody most of the time: Delighted. Nursery is almost done!!!
Looking forward to: Seeing this beautiful boy's face!!! <3
27 weeks pregnant
"At 27 weeks, baby is breathing (it’s amniotic fluid, not air, but it still counts) and even showing brain activity. You’ve got a lot on your brain, too, from wondering what labor and delivery is going to be like to trying to find the best pediatrician for baby. The annoying symptoms you’ve been having probably aren’t going away, but at least you’ve probably found some ways to deal with them -- and hey, maybe you’re used to them right now. As you say goodbye to the second trimester, you can look forward to some pretty embarrassing stuff (like having to pee all the time -- and maybe even when you don’t mean to at all) that’s all par for the late-pregnancy course. It’s time to head down the home stretch. Are you ready?" - thebump.com
Your baby's the size of a rutabaga!
At 13.6 to 14.8 inches and 1.5 to 2.5 pounds, she's not just getting bigger, she's getting smarter.
your baby at 27 weeks
- She's practicing inhaling and exhaling with her rapidly developing lungs.
- It's official: Baby's showing brain activity! And her brain will keep on getting more complex.
Spring is slowly coming... it's still raining and snow possibilities. I snapped this photo a week ago.. it's our tree in the backyard.

Hello 3rd trimester!!!
