Week 30-April 5, 2013

These weeks have been flying by. I can't believe I only have 10 weeks left. I'm so excited to meet her but at the same time, there are so many things to get done both at home and work. She can take her time growing in there for now. This week we picked up Bailey's crib. It was so exciting knowing that her room is coming together so quickly. It was just a matter of decding on her room colors. I have been able to order some really great things on Etsy. I will post before and after pictures of her room as soon as its complete. My next big tasks will be sewing her crib skirt, finding curtains and making her rain gutter bookshelves. If you havent seen them, google it. They are really cool. I broke down and bought her a beautiful little yellow sun dress. I'm trying so hard to be good and not buy clothes just yet because I know there will be so many other things that we will need to buy later. I need to find a money tree!

 

Baby Size:  Cucumber (not sure how they decide that. I think a cucumber is smaller than last week and I'm sure as heck not smaller!)

Average size: 15.2 -16.7 inches, 2.5-3.8 lb.
Baby’s strong enough to grasp a finger now.

Total Weight gain/loss: 22 lbs.  

 

Maternity clothes: Again as much as possible. It will be so nice to fit in my old clothes again.

 

Stretch Marks:  None

 

Sleep: Still not great. It doesnt help that my husband wants to skydive. I'm a little nervous about it and keep waking up thinking about it.

 

Best moment this week: We picked up our crib this week! I'm so excited to see it all set up. Also, we were able to get tickets for the soccer game at Busch Stadium in May. All I have to say is that Bailey had better hold out until the game is over :)

 

Miss anything: Not really anything.

 

Food cravings: Cereal, chocolate and fruit.

 

 Anything making you queasy or sick: Nothing 

 

Have you started to show yet: Just a little :)

 

Movement: A ton. Everytime I think I have figured out which way she is laying, she moves and I'm confused again. I think were going to have an active baby.

 

 Gender: Girl!! Bailey Isabel Riva

 

Labor Signs: None 

Belly Button in or out:  In-dont think its coming out either.

Wedding rings on or off:  On for now but I can feel my fingers swelling. 

 

Mood: Good. I'm getting really excited to meet her. Her room is almost all put together. It will be so neat to sit in her nursery and rock her to sleep.

 

Looking forward to: Mostly I'm looking forward to Andy getting his skydive over with. 

 

Due Date:  June 12th, 2013
