le bump / 29 weeks

the countdown clock says 75 days!

progress & countdown: 29 weeks down & 75 days to go!

baby size: a butternut squash.

food & drink: i am loving all the fruit right now. and booch. and coconut yogurt with granola. and still majorly into mexican food.

bump stuff: i can still see my feet, so, there’s that.

highs: baby albert’s blabla doll arrived and that makes it feel official. we have purchased a little stuffed animal friend for elinor and ridley so it was fun to add a new one to the gang. his name is webster the duck and he’s precious.

lows: sleep is becoming more broken as i flip-flop throughout the night and try to stay on my side instead of my back (too much weight / pressure now).

new developments: head to toe, baby is over 15 inches long and weighs 2.5 pounds. bones are building and the lungs are branching out.

meaningful moments & hormones & feelings: the linea nigra has arrived! that must mean that baby is getting close…

superficial stuff: my pregnancy app keeps noting things like bloating and swelling and hemorrhoids… ah, the glamorous preggo life. fortunately, i haven’t experienced that but i am feeling that pelvic spread and marveling at the size of the bump (especially at the end of the day).

looking forward to: my chiro appointment. it feels so good to get adjusted and makes such a difference as my body changes each week.
