A few maternity pictures at 7 months with Melissa Lu!
Baby Questions.
How far along? 30 Weeks 5 days
Total weight gain: 11 lbs.
Maternity clothes? Not really, almost everything still fits and things I’ve bought since I began to grow haven’t been necessarily maternity clothes, just stretchy ones.
Stretch marks? Nope.
Sleep: Unless I wake up to go to the bathroom, which I do like 3 times per night.. I sleep pretty well.
Best moment this week: Seeing the doctor and being told that despite the small weight gain I’ve experienced the baby is perfect size.
Miss Anything? Sleeping on my belly, feeling comfortable in bras, not peeing once an hour, not having constant back pain.
Movement: Atlas moves all the time!! Like right as I typed that last sentence he gave me a few I’m here and I know what you just typed kicks.
Food cravings: I really don’t think I’ve had any weird cravings if any at all, I mean I do love eating out but that’s nothing new. Yesterday at the store though I picked up a pack of grape Bubblecious gum which I don’t think I’ve ever bought a whole pack of before.
Anything making you queasy or sick: Well I’ve thrown up about twice in the past month or so, but only if I don’t eat enough throughout the day and don’t eat before bed. Otherwise, I’ve been woken up by heartburn twice now and having never experienced it before can say its awful!! I nearly cried and now I have tums handy just in case it happens again.
Gender: Boy! We’ve known since my first ultrasound!
Labor Signs: Nope, at about 5 months I think I had minor contractions but only lasted about an hour total and were obviously not a sign of labor since it was so early on.
Symptoms: Body/back aches, more often and louder than average burping, tiny overactive bladder, kicking and somersaulting baby inside mere.
Belly Button in or out? Well, I used to have an innie but it’s definitely more of an outtie these days; not completely out but there’s no depth to it anymore.
Wedding rings on or off? Off until the time is right.
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy unless I’m hungry, hot, or have back pain..in which case I give Betty White a run for her money.
Looking forward to: Taking Lamas classes, I really need to get a handle on the labor business and how not to totally freak out; which I’ve been delaying the most.
