Bumpdate: 26 and 27 weeks



How far along: 26 weeks, last week of my second trimester

Baby Size: According to thebump.com Baby Barrett is the size of a head of lettuce.

Weight gain: I have a little addiction to Panera's iced caramel latte so I haven't stepped on the scale all week in fear of the number on the scale.

Maternity clothes: I still haven't bought any maternity tops but am definitely using my belly band every day I wear jeans 

Stretch marks: Not yet, still working on preventing them though!

Sleep: Having a hard time switching from a back sleeper to a side sleeper, but other than that I can't complain.
 
Gender: Boy! 
 
Movement: Baby B is most active after I eat anything sweet! 

Best moments this week: Having my niece and nephew in town. I love spending time with them, they are so cute and so funny and bring me so much joy! I also really enjoyed getting my prenatal massage this week :) an hour of relaxing is just what this pregnant lady needed!

Looking forward to: I'm heading to Daphne on Thursday to spend the weekend with Zach while he is on standby for Mardi-Gras. 

Food cravings: Sweeeeeeeeeets
 
Anything making you queasy or sick: Nothing that I can think of.
 
Labor Signs: nope

Hubby: He is getting more and more excited about Baby B and it's so sweet to talk about his excitement

Nursery: Sadly nothing to report. 
 
Belly Button in or out? In 

Wedding rings on or off? On

Workouts: Zumba, yoga, and walks! I am trying to stay as active as possible throughout this pregnancy. Not only have I heard exercising during pregnancy helps labor, it also makes me feel sooo good! I can tell I am not able to push myself as hard as I usually try to and I am trying to listen to my body (which is a little hard for the competitive side of me).



How far along: 27 weeks, officially in my third trimester according to my sprout app!

Baby Size: According to thebump.com Baby Barrett is the size of a head of rutabaga (I agree that is maybe the strangest fruit to compare a baby to!)

Weight gain: According to my at home scale I am up 16lbs from my pre-pregnancy weight. I'm pretty sure I gained about 5 lbs this past weekend from not doing my normal workouts and eating sooo much while down in Daphne.

Maternity clothes: Same as last week.

Stretch marks: None

Sleep: Sleeping great this week!
 
Gender: Boy! 
 
Movement: Lots!

Best moments this week: Spending some precious alone time with my sweet sweet husband. I am so lucky he is so understanding during this whole pregnancy.

Looking forward to: Zach's parents are coming in town on Friday and I think we are going to take them to one of our favorite seafood restaurants! 

Food cravings: Mexican food
 
Anything making you queasy or sick: Nothing that I can think of.
 
Labor Signs: none

Symptoms: HORMONES! I had pregnancy meltdown #3 over this past weekend. 

Nursery: Still nothing....
 
Belly Button in or out? In 

Wedding rings on or off? On

Workouts: I definitely slacked in this area while in Daphne from Thursday-Monday. I did get in 2 hotel workouts which consisted of the elliptical and some squats and planks. I did get in 2 Zumba classes and one yoga class when I got back in town.

  1. Those caramel lattes are to die for! I'm impressed with how much working out you do... I can barely make myself do that much and I'm not even pregnant!

    1. I am not working so I have no excuse for not working out! I also have to do something to combat all the eating of sweets I've done while being pregnant!
