How Far Along: 28 Weeks
Baby Size: Eggplant
Symptoms: This week has been good. I've had very little back pain or hip pain. The previous week was much worse. I definitely had SI Joint pain and knee pain.
Weight Gain: Up 14 lbs since prepregnancy. I feel like I should be gaining more because of my low starting weight.
Sleep: Up 2-3 times a night to pee, but usually in a 4 hour, 3 hour and 3 hour set. Good training? I didn't have a lot of discomfort which was great.
Best Moment of the Week: A woman I met at a birthday party said I look beautiful. Gilles is able to see my belly move while we watch TV. I organized the nursery a little and feel much better about it.
Worst Moment of the Week: Not hearing from an OB. We're almost at the bi-weekly appointment weeks and I have yet to see one. My family Dr is alright, but I don't feel like I'm getting the care I should be at this point.

Any cravings or aversions: Clementine oranges. They are the perfect size and I've been eating 1-2 a day. Love the freshness!
Wedding ring on or off: On. The cold weather is actually making it loose. I also don't have much swelling anywhere at all, so that would also make a difference. My massage therapist commented on my lack of swelling when she was doing my feet and calves.
Belly button In or Out: In, but very flat.
What I'm looking forward to: Getting a phone call from the maternity clinic. I'm really hoping I get a call this week!!
What I miss: Shrimp. I've been wanting shrimp and rice, but avoiding the seafood.
Emotions: 27 weeks I was feeling a little bit nervous. Not about birth, but about having a baby. It's crazy to think I'll be a mom. This week, I'm excited! I held a 4 week old baby girl on the weekend and I can't make these next 11 weeks go fast enough.
Nursery: We bought stain for the glider, ottoman and shelf. Gilles wanted everything the same colour. The mattress came in for the crib so that is officially all set up. I repurposed some baskets I had been using for other things and now I don't need to buy any special ones. I washed all the clothes I have already and organized it in to size. The drawers are organized for the most part now.
Shopping: Stain for the glider. A couple onsies for newborn.
To-do: Blood tests Monday. Start reading up on breastfeeding and baby care
