| This is at around 29 weeks while playing at the Children's Museum. |
Baby Size: Pineapple
Symptoms: Heartburn and Acid Reflux in full force. I sleep sitting up like the Elephant Man. My neck hurts as a result, and every so often I nestle down in bed and I wake up chocking on the acid coming back up. It's pretty awesome---not really; it's gross and scary. And I get a ton more Braxton Hicks then I ever did the first time around. Oh, and emotions! I can feel myself getting REALLY angry over stupid things...so stupid I can't even think of them right now. Like, if dinner is taking longer to cook then I thought it would...silly things like that. It's very weird. I can go from happy to sad to angry in seconds! Ohhhh...and I had to take the 3-hour glucose test. I passed, but the actual test was miserable! It was so hard not to throw up! Seriously, I did not handle it well...and you get pricked over and over...man I hope I never have to do that again!
Workout: I'm only doing Pilates and yoga these days. Back to the Braxton Hicks...I had what I believed was way too many in a certain amount of time. (4-5 in an hour and painful) so I went into the doctor's office to be monitored. Everything was fine, but still kind of scary. And the only thing--the only thing--I can think of that I did differently that day was workout at the gym (which, ironically, I felt the best I had felt while running...but...then the contractions came...) so I've been nervous to go back to working out. So, I'm sticking with prenatal Pilates and yoga.
Cravings: None really. In fact my appetite isn't what it used to be...which is good, because I was eating everything! Now, I just eat normal.
Best Moment(s) of the week: I say this a lot, but movement...it is, by far, the coolest part of being pregnant.
Missing: Sleeping on my back, laying on my stomach...and really working out.
