More Pregnancy Moments...

A while back I posted about some funny things I've experienced being pregnant thus far, and I knew that was only the beginning and I had more to come. Well from then to now I've definitely experienced more crazy things. While on a friend's blog I noticed that she has a really good idea to track her pregnancy so I'm going to start doing it too (hope she doesn't mind)...

• How Far Along: 27 weeks and a couple days.
• Weight Gain: from my last doctor's appointment I weighed 115...so I've gained 20 lbs (hard to believe but true). That was about 3 weeks ago so I'm not sure what I weigh now.
• Stretch Marks: no...hopefully it stays that way.
• Maternity clothes: I have a couple maternity shirts and maternity work pants, but I haven't brought myself to maternity jeans yet. There really aren't any cute maternity pants so I've just gotten regular jeans in a bigger size.
• Sleep: up until now sleeping has been great. I haven't gotten up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom or anything this whole time. However, over this last week I have woken up several times during the night from an excruciating pain in both my calves. I'm still getting heartburn every so often, but usually I can handle it. I'll never forget that one night I got it so bad I was in tears for about 20-30 minutes, but thanks to my wonderful husband he took such good care of me and got me some medicine even though it was 11:00 at night.
• Cravings: fresh fruit, french fries, root beer and chocolate milk.
• Food Dislikes: I really don't have an appetite for meat anymore...I'll still eat it, but it just never sounds good.
• Movement: yes all the time...it's been really fun lately to feel her move because when she presses up to my stomach I can feel her little body.
• Belly Button: completely out...it's been out for a couple months now.
• What I'm Looking Forward To: my ultrasound on October 6th, the holidays (because it will make time go by faster) and all my showers!
• Milestones: according to my book she is 15 inches long and weighs just over 2 lbs. She has more taste buds now than she will have at birth. She is now opening and closing her eyes, and perhaps even sucking her fingers. More and more brain tissue is developing so her brain is very active. Her lungs are still immature, but she can breathe. I really can't wait for my ultrasound so we can get a good idea of where she really stands.
