30 Weeks!!

So last weeks update was no joke. All the talk about Baby H being cramped and going through another growth spurt has made this week very uncomfortable. I thought the growing would happen gradually over the next few weeks, but it seemed to start as soon as I hit the publish post button for last weeks blog. I think another part of the problem is Baby girl H seems to think she is staying in a fancy suite at the Four Season and can stretch out everywhere. Little does she know that unless she plans to break one of my ribs there is really no where else for her to move!! I really can't complain though because besides 5 weeks of morning sickness in the beginning, I have had a great pregnancy. After this week though I have concerns for the next 9 weeks! As Chad said, hopefully they will go by fast.

According to babycenter.com this week baby H's eyesight is continuing to develop, but is not very keen; even after she is born she will keep her eyes closed for a good part of the day. When she does open them, she will respond to changes in light, but she will only have 20/400 vision - which means she will only be able to see objects a few inches from her face.

How far along? 30 weeks... 10 to go!!
Total weight gain/loss: No clue....I don't have a scale in NJ
Maternity clothes? Does it look like I can fit in anything else.... ha ha!!
Sleep: Still good.... fingers crosssed
Best moment this week: Getting the babies car seat. It makes everything feel so real!!
Movement: My rib cage has become a practice soccer net.
Food cravings: Jelly Donuts
Gender: Girl
Belly Button in or out? In but very shallow
What I miss? Chad :O(
What I am looking forward to: My baby shower!!
Milestones: I am pretty sure baby H is now head down. I am just guessing based on the fact that he feet are in my ribs. Hopefully we can confirm this at our appointment on the 25th!!
