START OF THE FINAL TRIMESTER!

Image

 

Weeks pregnant?: TWENTY-EIGHT!!!!

Maternity clothes?: I dont think this answer will change until this sweet girl arrives!

Stretch marks?: Nope, staying hydrated and moisturized! 🙂

Sleep: we are a high maintenance little munchkin! every hour on the hour she kicks to make me switch up positions, starting to only get about 4 hours of good sleep a night

Best moment this week?: finding out that we are probably closer than we think to meeting our sweet little one!

Miss Anything?: well, as bad as this may sound, I REALLY MISS the scale having a lower number on it! haha I know it sounds dumb but gracious it is weird to feel so big 

Movement?: she is definitely the daughter of two very active people! she loves to move around while she still can

Food cravings: STEAK!!!   

Symptoms?: this week has definitely been full of craziness with just checking for pre-term labor and finding out how big she has gotten, so symptoms were definitely in full force, we are starting to have Braxton Hicks Contractions, lower back pains and tons of swelling! 

Belly Button in or out?: half and half! 

Wedding rings on or off?: Off, saddest day ever!! I am just too swollen 😦 Michael went out and got me a new ring though because he is such a sweetie! 

Happy or Moody most of the time?:  A very calm and maintaining happiness week! I am not allowed to get stressed out or get anxious so we are forcing calmness and happiness even through crazy days for sweet Demi! 

Looking forward to?: baby shower number one this coming weekend! I am so excited to be home and see people and just celebrate such a wonderful time!! 

What Demi Is Up Too:

 Brain wave activity measured in a developing fetus shows different sleep cycles, including the rapid eye movement phase, the stage when dreaming occurs.

By now, Demi who weighs in at about 3 pounds and stands — or rather lies — at almost 16 inches (measured head to toe) has added blinking to her growing bag of tricks. Other impressive new talents being added to Miss Demi’s roster in the womb include coughing, more intense sucking, and, perhaps most important, better breathing. Of course, it’s still best if a baby doesn’t check out of that hotel just yet — there’s still a lot of growing and maturing to do over the next 12 weeks.
