Baby Size: Acorn Squash
Symptoms: Lack of concentration and motivation. I just can't seem to get myself going in the mornings. Part of that may be do to the cold weather last week. The beginning of the week was frigid. Sore back in one spot when I sit too long. I have a numb patch just below my sternum to the right. It's about the size of my palm. Apparently my sister had it and it never went away after her babies. It's the weirdest feeling and the edges are slightly painful, like never pain. I'll have to ask my OB when I finally get to see one.
Weight Gain: 16 lbs
Sleep: I had the pleasure of waking up to a party in my belly at 4am one morning and the way bébé was kicking my stomach I nearly got sick. Changed positions and he/she stopped kicking so hard.
Best Moment of the Week: Gilles agreeing to cloth diaper ourselves from the get go. We had thought about using a service but we did some more comparisons and it's cheaper for us to buy newborn cloth than to use a service. Now I'm on the hunt!
Worst Moment of the Week: My OB saga: In January my Dr referred me to a clinic that only delivers at Rockyview hospital which is not the one we wanted. I declined since that is not what I asked him for at EVERY appointment since 8 weeks. I went back to him and said do it again. He sent it out to only 1 out of 2 clinics that deliver at the new hospital, and they declined me as they are full. They had to resend my referral to all the other clinics in my area and now I finally have an OB appointment, but it's at the hospital we didn't want. I'm sad and disappointed. I'm also kicking myself because I could have been seeing an OB for the last 2 months if I was going to end up at Rockyview any way. My first OB appointment will be at 31 weeks. My last prenatal appointment at that point will have been 6 weeks before.
Any cravings or aversions: Still loving oranges.
Wedding ring on or off: On.
Belly button In or Out: In, but getting flatter.
What I'm looking forward to: Chiro this week.
What I miss: Wine. (It's a continual thing.)
Emotions: Excited. Thinking about the birth process is fascinating.
Nursery: Nothing this week
