27 Weeks

How far along? 27 weeks (February 3, 2013)
Total weight gain/loss: Maternity clothes? Not sure about any more weight gain. I go back to the doctor this week, though.
Stretch marks? I think a couple small ones on my side are popping up but they aren’t bad and I’m using my tummy oil like crazy!
Sleep: AWFUL. Absolutely AWFUL. I get up at least twice to use the restroom and I think that will only get worse. And I can't get comfortable to save my life. Someone needs to buy me a body pillow. ;)

Movement: Lots!
Food cravings: I have been craving Chinese and Sylacauga has zero options that I will eat. But I finally got my fix at work this weekend. Yum!

Have you started to show yet: Oh yeah.
Gender: Girl!
Labor Signs: I thought I may have had some contractions after over-doing it cleaning out the nursery but I’m still not 100% sure. Whatever it was, it finally stopped after getting some rest.

Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy!
Looking forward to: I’m working a good bit this week, so not much. But I can tell you what I’m NOT looking forward to…my glucose tolerance test Thursday. I hope I pass!

24 Weeks

Baby E is viable! Well, technically. I wouldn't be very happy if she decided to make her appearance right now. So let's hope she keeps cooking another 16 weeks. That seems like such a short time!

By the way, Hunter is LOVING taking these pictures for me! It is the highlight of his week! (Insert sarcasm font). He has no idea what he's in for. I told him it hasn't even started yet.

Miss Anything? Nope!
Movement: More and more everyday! Especially when I'm in the car with loud music playing. She loves it!
Food cravings: Umm Savannah Smiles Girl Scout cookies. I'm pretty sure that's where the four pounds came from.
