27 Weeks with Kellan

 

 

How far along:  27 weeks 5 days (in the picture)
 
Total Weight Gain/Loss: 13lbs

Maternity clothes: Maternity leggings and lots of over-sized t-shirts.

 
Stretch marks: No, but I can tell they're trying their hardest to form.  I slab on tubs and tubs of tummy butter and pray it continues to work!

Sleep: Sleep is great when I'm not choking on reflux acid in my throat. 

Best moment last week: I received my baby shower invitation in the mail this week and got REALLY excited about it!  I have some of the best friends anyone could ask for and am really looking forward to getting everyone together to celebrate Kellan. 

 

Movement:Yes!  His movements are getting more and more predictable.  I think he's finally getting into a sleep pattern.  

 

 Food cravings: Soup and bread.

 
Gender: BOY!!!  

Labor signs: The new medications I've been on seem to be doing their job!  Contractions have been much more manageable and last week at my appointment everything was looking really good.  Last night was a different story with 6-10 contractions an hour, but they've eased up a bit since then. 

Belly button - in or out? I think we are officially to the flat belly button stage!

What I miss: Being able to exercise.  I sure do wish I could do some cardio or go on a walk... I really don't want to gain more than I did with Callie, but a healthy baby boy is MUCH more important than a few pounds. :)

What I am looking forward to: My baby shower this month!

 

 Milestones:  Making it one more week!  God is so good!

Callie really loves her baby brother!

I just can't handle her cuteness!  20 months old, already.

My big project of the week!  An owl pillow for Kellan's nursery.  I love the way he turned out!!
