Friday Funk – 27 weeks

So sorry for the lateness of this post today. The start of my “summer vacation” has been crazy!

I was also super lazy and didn’t feel like moving the mirror to the back of the door for this week’s pictures, so you get a different angle today. And speaking of lazy, I didn’t get around to taking these pics until Wednesday, so I’m actually 27 weeks 4 days along in these.

  • How far along?  27 weeks, 6 days
  • Total weight gain:  Oops! I completely forgot to weigh myself this week. I told you it’s been a crazy week. Oh well, next time.
  • Maternity clothes?  Bottoms – definitely. Tops – for the most part. And lots of dresses.
  • Stretch marks?  Thankfully, no. I didn’t get any from D, so hopefully Dv2.0 doesn’t give me any either.
  • Sleep:  Getting a little uncomfortable, but for the most part it’s still ok. Sometimes I have to get up to pee, but that isn’t a constant yet. And I am finding that I’m getting sorer and sorer each time I wake up lying on my back now too.
  • Best moment this week:  Probably getting to spend D’s birthday with her all day, including going to the zoo. Unfortunately I was able to do that since my job ended the day before, but it was still fun nonetheless.
  • Miss anything?  Beer, especially now that it’s HOT oustide.
  • Movement:  Yes, since about week 16 I believe. Kicks are pretty low, which I’ve heard signals there’s a boy in there.
  • Cravings:  In general, no, but when I get really hungry I want protein – meat, cheese, etc.
  • Aversions:  Food, no. Smells, not nearly as bad as last time, fortunately. I just get sick of scents quickly and have to get rid of them completely.
  • Gender:  Not finding out.
  • Labor signs:  No.
  • Symptoms:  Pretty much nightly heartburn (still mild though, thankfully), SI pain (almost constantly now, which sucks), my hair isn’t shedding much when I wash/brush it, and I have some serious pregnancy brain. I’ve started feeling my stomach muscles tweak sharply when I try to use my abs sometimes now too. Guess this kid really is growing in there.
  • Belly button in or out?  In. Never went fully out with D, just a little crooked.
  • Wedding rings on or off?  On.
  • Looking forward to:  Next week settling down so D and I can actually start getting into our “at home” routine. We have our annual summer party tomorrow that has now become a combo birthday party for R & D, so these past 2 days have been busy getting ready for that. When do my naps start? Ha! Actually next week does have some good stuff coming up in it though – I have my next doctor appointment and it’s also R’s birthday, so we’re going to take a day and go to the State Fair to celebrate that. Hot Wisconsin fried cheese – YUM!!

Here’s another comparison for your viewing pleasure. Left side is 27w exactly with D, and like I said the right side is 27w4d with Dv2.0.
