Weekly Check-In:29-30 Weeks!!

Weekly Check-In

How far along?

In 3 days I will be 7 1/2 months pregnant. I cant believe how fast time flies when your having fun! 

Miles is getting so big. My belly at times feels like I have a wave going on. It makes me loose my stomach like being on a roller coaster. We go Thursday for our 3d/4d ultrasound and cant wait to share that with you guys!! So ready to meet our little guy!

Maternity clothes?

I have to admit that I really hate maternity jeans. Ive been living in my Big Star jeans and wearing the bella band with it. Clothes are not my friend right now. So happy I have a job that I wear scrubs!  Really not looking forward to Christmas Eve when I have to get all dressed up for the celebration. Wished pajamas were considered dressed up!

Sleep?

Sleep is sleep. Miles really doesn't wake me up at night. I get a horrible hot flash and have to get up and go pee. Then the dang dogs start waking me up around 645 on my day off. Makes me so mad. Miles wakes up to around 630 and kicks and kicks so its really hard to go back to sleep. I think sleeping in is a thing in the past.

Best moment this week?

We officially finished the room!! I really think it turned out super cute. Without John's help I dont know what I would have done. He made the guitars and did alot of other things around the room to make it looks so wonderful. Here is the finished product minus the chair we are getting from Target:

The quote says "We are the music makers, and the dreamers of dreams." John loved this quote and had to put it on the wall. The chair will go right underneath it!! Having this done really makes me feel like its really real. We are gonna be parents in 10 weeks!

Food cravings:

Right this very moment I want to make sugar cookies and decorate them! My sweet tooth has kicked in big time. Ive eaten more sweet stuff than I have in years.

Gender:

Belly button in or out?

Oh man its getting there. I dont think it will go all the way out.. But we will see.

Movement:

What I miss?

Enjoying getting all dressed up and going somewhere. Me and clothes are not friends.

What I'm looking forward to:

Meeting this little guy! Hurry up February!!

Milestones

Reaching 30 weeks and now starting to see the doctor every two weeks!

Letters for Miles Room!

Yesterday while John was out running I started working on the letters for Miles room. Ive done so many letters for friends that I cant believe Im actually doing my own!! Three of the letters are fabric that I used decoupage and wax paper to make the letters hard. Then I used an exact-o-knife to cut the letters to the actual wood. I let it dry for a few days. The material was actually pretty easy to put on! It was the cutting right up against the letter that was hard. It took me a total of two hours to get it all done but it was worth it. Here is my finished product:

Im still waiting on the cover for the changing table but it looks like the M of his name. I think they turned out pretty good!!! Im no picky about my letters Im sure I will take them back down and add some to them. The black L is actually fabric that has musical notes on it but in the picture you cant see it. Once the room is all done I will post a picture of it all. The bedding should be here around the 21st! I cant wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Weekly Check-In

How far along?

Gotta do two weeks again! Sorry for being a slacker! This week I will be 7 months pregnant! I cant believe how fast time has flown by! We officially have 12 weeks and 3 days til our little guy makes it here. Unless the doctor thinks he needs to come earlier! 

Maternity clothes?

Gotta love them! I really need to go buy some maternity jeans that I actually like. Ive been living in my Big Star jeans and using my bella band but its starting to get alittle on the uncomfortable side. 

Sleep?

I get some pretty good sleep still. I get the normal wake up and go pee still. I now officially cant sleep past 7 o'clock. Even if I go to bed late!

Best moment this week?

Knowing that I officially passed the Gestational Diabetes test and I'm not anemic. Here is a funny picture of me. The toes are almost gone.

Gestational Diabetes Drink

So I went to the doctor today and everything looks great! I'm measuring a week ahead still. He told me that we will do a growth U/S at 38 weeks! So excited to see Miles again! But before seeing the doctor I drank the Fruit Punch sugar drink with 50 grams of sugar. That is equal to a little over 4 tablespoons of sugar in one felt swoop on a empty stomach. Oh man did that make me feel super funny. Felt like I was on drugs or something. When you don't eat tons of sugar on a daily basis it is like shock to your system. I wont know the results til Monday.

After the test we went an ate at this awesome fish place and pigged out on fried catish!! Gotta love Texas. But I could not even drink Sweet tea. Anything sweet sounds awful right!  Cant believe we are under 100 days! EEEEEEEE!!!!
