30 Weeks! OMG!


How far along: 30 weeks! Where did the time go?
Total weight gain: Not sure currently, I update everytime I have a midwife appointment
Maternity clothes: All the time. 
Stretch marks: A little on the sides but they are not really noticeable and honestly? I don't care much. They show I've carried a child. 
Sleep: NO. I'm always thirsty so I'm up refill my big jug of water which makes me get up more times to pee. My hips hurt so either side I can't get comfortable. I can't sleep on my back or stomach obviously...Nightmares, Trouble breathing... Ya know...Not gonna lie... It sucks. 
Best moment of this week: Baby shopping. We got a few more things we needed off the registry since not a single person has helped us..Jared has been amazing with it all. 
Miss anything: having feet and not sausages as feet. I miss ankles and feet not hurting. 
Movement: SO much movement.  And it's amazing. I can feel body parts now. In fact, he's moving right now. 
Food cravings: chocolate muffins and peaches. 
Anything making you queasy or sick: lukewarm water makes me gag and salt.
Have you started to show yet: Duh
Gender: Boy!!
Labor signs: Nope!
Belly button in or out: 50/50
Wedding rings on or off: Off. Fingers are just swollen. And now my feet are too. 
Happy or moody most of the time: Happy and excited!
Looking forward to: Seeing this beautiful boy's face!!! <3 I also have a breastfeeding class in three days i'll be attending to. 

30 weeks pregnant

"At 30 weeks, your belly’s doing more than just making it tough to find a comfortable sleeping position. It’s made itself a conversation piece. Everywhere you go, someone seems to have a comment about your physical appearance, which isn’t always so fun. And no doubt, you’ve encountered quite a few people who don’t think before they speak and say something embarrassing or hurtful (what’s up with that?) Try not to take those comments seriously, but know which ones should be taken to heart. Like when they tell you you’re glowing, believe them! And take advantage of some of the perks (when someone offers you their seat on the train -- take it!) At week 30, your dreams might be getting even weirder -- if you’re actually sleeping, that is. That could be a result of anxiety, so consider doing some prep work to help you rest easier. One idea? Do a test drive to see exactly how long it really takes you to get to the hospital. Then maybe you’ll stop having nightmares about giving birth in your car." - thebump.com 
Your baby's the size of a cucumber!
Your 15.2- to 16.7-inch, 2.5- to 3.8-pound baby continues to grow.

your baby at 30 weeks
  • His skin is getting smoother.
  • But his brain is getting wrinklier -- to make way for all that essential brain tissue.
  • He's now strong enough to grasp a finger!


Baby E will be here before we know it!!!
