30 weeks and 2 days ... 68 to go!

Had another OB appointment today -- my belly is measuring about 33 cm - which equals out to be about 2.5 - 3 weeks big. We had more discussions of the fact that we probably just "breed" big babies, and how we're going to have to keep an eye on that and make the best decision about how to proceed when the time comes. I'm all for going for a natural (medicated) childbirth, but I am not about to try to push him out if he's not going to fit!!

How far along?
30 weeks and 2 days
Total weight gain/loss: +32lbs
Maternity clothes? Yup - and still need the bella band w/ pants b/c they don't give me enough support, and if I don't wear it my tummy hurts by the end of the work day
Stretch marks? Still just on the thighs
Sleep: I've been so exhausted from work that even though I pee over 10 times a day - I've only been waking up once in the middle of the night!
Best moment this week: Sharing my story @ CKH's and connecting with more IF women
Movement: I am love love loving sitting and watching him make my tummy move - it's so awesome. He's getting stronger every day!!
Food cravings: Still the same greasy burger and fries ... and A&W for lunch today and it tasted amazing!
Gender: He's a big baby boy!
Labor Signs: Nada
Belly Button in or out? I've decided that only the top can be the "outtie" because of the stitches at the bottom from my laproscopy
What I miss: Flip Flops being comfortable all day long
What I am looking forward to: Hopefully getting another ultrasound, and of course my 12 week maternity leave :)
Weekly Wisdom: "For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith -- and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God -- not by works, so that no one can boast " Ephesians 2:8-9
Milestones: Passing the glucose test -- Nick seeing my belly move.
Realization of the week: I love being pregnant :)
