Turns out that the hospital that my OB delivers at won't take my insurance, so yesterday I met with a nurse at my new OB's practice and in 3 weeks I'll meet with my new doctor. Every time that we get a measurement or listen to little one's heartbeat, baby immediately kicks the probe! Baby definitely gets that from daddy... David dislikes doctors. My uterus is still measuring big (which is silly because I don't look like I'm due in 2 months... guess it's just measuring higher than it's supposed to be) so on Monday I'll be getting another ultrasound to see what the deal is. I passed my Glucose test, but my old doctor apparently didn't send my new doctor that information, so they just want to double check to rule out Gestational Diabetes.
David and I will be staying in our current apartment for a while longer, since he just started his new job on Monday! If you didn't already know by all of my complaining, we only have a window unit and it was in our living room. A few nights ago I was in tears because it was just so dang hot, so we pulled the mattress into the living room and slept there. It was heavenly! Needless to say, we switched our bedroom to the living room and living room to the bedroom. With a baby on the way, we'll have more room now in our bedroom to fit everyone.
How far along? 30 weeks
Total weight gain: I'm gaining right on track.
Maternity clothes? Yes and they are oh so comfy. Not sure if I'll even want to go back to my normal clothes after delivery.
Sleep: Before moving bedrooms, hardly any. But I'm starting to get more even with the heat.
Best moment this week: Hearing baby's heartbeat again. It's such a beautiful sound.
Miss Anything? I miss being able to breathe.
Movement: Tons! This kid moves around so much, I'm almost afraid that I'll be chasing him/her down all the time when it gets here. I can feel hiccups down low and I can see limbs rolling around. Baby particularly loves hearing David's voice and kicks when he asks him/her to do so.
Food cravings: Corn chex, ice water, mozzerella sticks from Arby's.
Anything making you queasy or sick: I'm having a bit of acid reflux that isn't much fun.
Labor Signs: Braxton hicks here and there.
Symptoms: Sciatic nerve pain (ow!), sore hips, swollen feet/fingers, forgetful, painful ribs, hard time breathing.
Belly Button in or out? In.
Wedding rings on or off?
On but it's getting harder to wiggle off with these swollen fingers.
Happy or Moody most of the time: Eager and happy!
Looking forward to: Having little one arrive in 2 months.
Here I am at 29 weeks.
