29 weeks

I don't even know what fruit/vegetable that is, but whatever, I don't even care at this point! I feel big! I know Baby is about 2.5 lbs and about 17 inches long, so that's good enough for me.

This was my Wednesday bump when I felt horrible.  I literally sat in my cube just staring at the wall and thinking about how crappy I felt.  Eventually, I gave in and decided to take a half day to go home and rest.  I took a 2 hour nap and laid in bed the rest of the afternoon.  Much needed and it felt great!

Friday was my birthday day off, so I went for my annual mani/pedi and added in an eyebrow wax.  I don't think I relaxed very much, but it was nice to get my nails done and now I have a good excuse :)  I went home to rest and then went back out to do some shopping at the thrift store and Joanns.  Perfect day! I also may have bought a little too much at the thrift store, but all the clothes were 50% since they're moving.  Hard to resist!

On Saturday, I rested a little more than planned, but again, probably a good thing.  We celebrated my birthday with the family and Connor thought it was his birthday (as usual).  They got my favorite chocolate chip coffee cake and a carrot cake with extra sugary icing and now I have all the leftovers at home to eat up.

Since I hardly have any bump pics, I took a few extras this morning before Kim's baby shower.  I probably should have taken off the jacket because you can hardly even see the bump.  When I look in the mirror with my shirt up, I look huge, but these pics actually make me feel a little better.  I don't look nearly as big as I feel!


So...sort of a hard week in terms of how I felt, but it's the new normal.  I'm doing better with learning to rest more and not push it so much.  10 weeks to go!

  1. You look adorable! I love that dress with the jacket. I think that every pregnant woman thinks she is bigger than what she really is. Maybe it is our point of view or just how uncomfortable we feel.
