Mondays. Week 29.

Mondays are my new favorite day. Monday is the day my baby grows another week older. Monday is the day I get my email and app updates on what he is doing and how is growing this week. So, I bring you...Week 29!


Baby BOY DeSalvo - Week 29

How Far Along: 29 weeks

Total Weight Gain: As of my last appointment last Monday, I had gained 24 pounds total. Now, with the Easter holiday and consumption of lots of delicious food, I am a little apprehensive about next week's appointment. 

Maternity Clothes: Absolutely! Leggings and dresses are my new favorite and I am ready for full time Spring weather!

Favorite Moment This Week: This week, I feel like baby and I are bonding more and more. I've been making more of an effort to relax in the morning before going to work. When I wake up, I lay in bed for a while talking to baby and savoring every movement his little body makes. It's a special time, a time where it's just him and I.

Gender: BOY - I think we might have finalized a name, but I don't know that we're 100% ready to commit to it. 

Movement: He is a busy little body. Hiccups are pretty much a daily occurrence as are rolls, jabs and kicks. 

Food Cravings: Milk, ice cold water, chocolate of any kind, Eggs, Bananas, yogurt, toast

What I miss: Again, I can't emphasize how much I am enjoying pregnancy, but there are several things I'm missing such as; sleeping on my back, being able to do everything I want to around the house without being completely wiped out and having to stop, tying my own shoes and moving around quickly.

Sleep: It's hit or miss for sure, but mostly good. When I am asleep, I'm out. I get up during the night to use the restroom and it is becoming harder to fall back asleep.

What I am looking forward to: Seeing what baby boy looks like, who he looks like.

Symptoms: Nothing new really, but my body is doing a really good job of telling me when to SLOW down and relax. I think I am beginning to get better about listening to it when it's trying to tell me that! 

Belly Button: Same, but any day I am expecting to wake up and have it completely out. 
  
Next Dr. Appointment: Monday, April 8th! 


He's front and center!
