*Disclaimer: This post covers cauliflower-sized baby to rutabaga-sized baby (there’s a lettuce-sized baby in the middle of those two). Basically, I’m covering weeks 25 through 27 all in one post because if I don’t, I’ll probably be two weeks behind forever. So here we go!
How far along? 25 weeks/26 weeks/27 weeks
Total weight gain/loss: +15-16 lbs (I cut my hair and lost two pounds…but I don’t think that counts)/+16ish lbs/ +17ish lbs (We really need to buy a scale!
Maternity clothes: It’s seriously time to go shopping/My aunt and grandma took me shopping!!/Yes, and that will probably be the answer to this question from now on.
Stretch marks: I haven’t really been looking, if I’m totally honest/So far lotion seems to still be working/my inner-thighs aren’t looking so hot. I think those are my worst stretch marks so far.
Sleep: Not so awesome, lately. I feel like I’m awake all night. (This is still exactly the same)
Best Moment this week: I chopped off all my hair, Jake came home, and he felt Julia kick. :)/Going to the open house with Jake/Getting to tell everyone at work that I’m pregnant!!
Miss anything: Not feeling tired, but I guess this is just a precursor of what is to come when Julia actually steps out into this world. (This is the same for all 3 weeks)
Movement: We’ve had kicks, punches, and the hiccups, so yes: lots of movement./I’m pretty sure she teaches a night kick-boxing class/I felt her move her foot (or hand), but it wasn’t a kick or punch. It was more like she was just moving past me. It was weird and really cool at the same time.
Food Cravings: I’m back in see-food eater mode. It’s actually terrible. (Still true for all 3 weeks)
Anything making you queasy or sick? Nothing specific. (Same)
Labor signs: Nope. (Same, although we did have a slight possible pre-term labor scare, but it also could have been Julia dramatically adjusting her position, so who knows?)
Belly button in or out? In. (Same)
Wedding rings on or off? Still on. (Same)
Happy or Moody most of the time: I’m back in more-or-less happy mode, but sometimes I get moody and irritated (and I apologize if you hit me in my moody mode. It’s not pretty)./More moody/Back to happy
Looking forward to: Friday: we’re going over to my grandma’s house to hang out for a bit, and then we’re going to see my newly-married friend on Saturday (yes, the one that eloped last week); we’ll also go to the Ogden Temple open house on Saturday. It’ll be fun!/My hanai sister-in-law’s bridal shower/I start work on Monday (I’m a writing tutor at ISU), and on Saturday, my hanai sister-in-law takes her endowments out, so I’m excited about that, too!
