29 Weeks

*How far along? 29 weeks 4 days
*How big is baby? The babies are as big as squashes during this 7th month.
*Genders? Two boys!
*Total weight gain? I am up around 25-30 lbs or so from pre-pregnancy weight.
*Maternity Clothes? All maternity clothes now! I had to break down this weekend and finally buy some more capris, shorts & tanks to add to my wardrobe with the warmer weather here for the summer.
*Stretch marks? None yet – keeping my fingers crossed!
*Sleep? More & more difficult each day – bathroom breaks are more frequent and rolling over is more difficult day by day. I’m getting up on average every two hours so I guess my body is starting to get trained for when the boys arrive!
*Movement? They have to be starting to run out of room to move around so freely in there but they still remain two active little boys in there.
*Food cravings? My new favorite snack is frozen Yoplait Whips yogurt – strawberry – so yummy!!
*Labor signs? None really – I believe I’m having Braxton-Hicks contracts daily but nothing consistent at all.
*Belly button in or out? It’s “popped” all the way out; I don’t my “innie” left anymore.
*What I miss? A good night’s sleep, although I know I’m still a long way away from that again.
*What I am looking forward to? Of course I’m really excited about seeing the boys at our next ultrasound on Wednesday. I’m also looking forward to camping & relaxing during the long Memorial Day weekend.
*Best moment this week? Passing my 3-hour glucose test! (This means no more worries about Gestational Diabetes at this time.) I also had a great time at my baby shower yesterday which was thrown by my godmother, cousin & sisters. It was nice to see and visit with all of my aunts and a couple cousins and the games were a blast. We also received a bunch of very nice presents including our baby monitors (yeah!!), bottles, onesies, hooded towels & hand-made blankets – thank you everyone!
