How far along:
29 Weeks (29 Weeks with Caitlin)
Size of
baby: 17 inches in length and nearly 3 lbs, according to What to Expect.
Cravings this week: still loving my cup of coffee in the mornings. Thanks to Grandmom buying them when we were visiting last weekend, I am now craving Mini Chocolate Tastykake donuts, and Caitlin was not complaining at all when I brought them home from the store earlier this week.
Weight
Gain: As of my doctor's appt on February 28th, 10lbs (I'm just going to
go with what the doctor's scale says because that's easiest).
What I love: Comfy maternity clothes.

What I'm looking
forward to the most: Back to looking forward to picking out a name and getting the nursery together.
What is different this time around: Definitely the size of my belly, and apparently, I am sleeping much better than last time. At this point last time, my ankles and fingers were swelling. I do occasionally wake up with tingly/sleeping fingers, but so far, the swelling seems ok (knock on wood).

Sleep: No issues in this department. I'm still up every night usually 2-4 times to pee around 1:30/2 and definitely 5/515 (like clockwork), but I usually have no problems falling back to sleep. It is starting to get a little harder to turn over and/or get out of bed though.
Symptoms: Heartburn, stuffy nose. Occasional sore hips and legs and just tired in general. Random leg cramps when I flex my feet/ankles at night.
Movement:
Yes! All the freaking time, and I'm getting some good kicks to the
bladder (not fun). The babe also seems to get the hiccups at least 2-3 times a
day.
The belly: Still pretty big, and the belly button flattens even more each week.
Boy or Girl: We'll find out in June
Best moment of the week: Pretty sad that this is exciting, but we were able to get the basement organized and I've kind of even organized the stuff we'll need to use when the baby gets here. Don't get me wrong, none of it is washed/ready yet, but at least I know where it is. Also, watching Cailtin participate in her first Easter Egg hunt. She loved it (and was very competitive!).
Worries this week: Starting to get a little worried about labor/delivery.
"Amusing" Comments: Nothing this week.
