28 weeks

How far along? 28 weeks

Total weight gain/loss: 20 lbs at the last appointment (2 weeks ago)


Maternity clothes? No regular clothes fit anymore - I had to stock up on maternity shirt and pants these last couple of weeks

Stretch marks? None


Sleep: Sleeping better, but work starts up this next week so not sure how that will change.  I'm getting about 4 hours of solid sleep at night.  The hard part is actually falling asleep, but once I do, I'm okay for a few hours.
Best moment this week: 3D sonogram - watching him kick and punch and seeing his cute face
Movement: So it turns out that Blake is definitely more active than most babies.  The sonographer kept mentioning how active he was, and he wasn't even putting on a show!  What to Expect says I should be counting his movements a few times a day and should be getting around 10 movements in an hour - every time I've tried, he does 10 movements in less than 5 minutes. 
 Food cravings: Had a bit of nausea again this week, but no cravings really - this child will like hamburgers and mexican though!  :)
Gender: Sonogram still shows it's a BOY!

Labor Signs: None


Belly Button in or out? neither - just flat....

Wedding rings on or off? Still on, no significant swelling

What I miss:  Iced Tea
 What I am looking forward to: Going back to school and letting my kiddos see my belly!  :)

Weekly Wisdom: Take advantage of any sleep opportunities
 Milestones: We are in the 3rd Trimester!  Going to the doctor every 2 weeks now!  :)

Here is my 6 1/2 month picture (sorry it's a little delayed) which Baylee decided she wanted to be a part of.

Here is Baby Blake's profile - as best we could get without his hands/arms being in the way!
