| I always end up doing bump photos at work... |
Size of Baby: Spaghetti squash / 1 lb
Symptoms: Other than the usual tiredness and massive boobs (can’t even imagine them getting bigger) I am feeling pretty great right now!
Stretch marks: Still looking good but have decided to
switch to coconut oil because I’m hearing mixed reviews on message boards about
Bio Oil and that even though it’s promoted to pregnant women, it contains retinyl palmitate which is like Retin A
and potentially dangerous.
Coconut oil seems to be good for everything and I read that if you whip it up
once and put it in an air tight container it will stay like that. Seems worth
it to me.
Sleep: Still sleeping really well thankfully and so looking forward to sleeping in and daily naps while on vacation next week. Thankfully we drive there so I will be bringing my snoogle and a couple other pillows.
Husband: was initially
experiencing a tiny bit of gender disappointment (don’t hate on him, I discuss
it here) but now I smile from ear to ear every time I hear him
say “our daughter…”.
Belly Button: in and showing no signs
of popping.
Movement: YES! I thought I felt an actual tiny kick yesterday
and then this morning I felt it again 3 times! As a FTM I’m can’t be sure that
they are kicks but what else could they be?
Cravings: I have been drinking
coffee again, all of a sudden on Monday I wanted coffee instead of tea and had
it again yesterday and today.
Maternity Clothes: my mom has spoiled me
with a couple new things from H&M plus I found a great non-maternity light
dress last weekend and may or may not have purchased in multiple colours. I
will do a post on my favourite pieces soon.
Best Part of The Week: Between finding out we
are having a baby girl and finally feeling her little kicks, this week has been
overflowing with baby love.
Worst Part of the Week: Monday morning was rough.
I woke up exhausted and feeling completely drained and seriously considered
calling in sick (but didn’t).
Missing Most: this never changes for me
– wine!
Looking Forward To: being on vacation next
week and our first lake trip of the year.
