27 Weeks

How far along? 27 weeks
Total Weight Gain? 17 lbs
Stretch Marks? no
Sleep: awful. We are weaning Nolan off his sleep meds so it is affecting our sleep greatly. I am also trying to get comfortable, not have my arms go numb, and stop waking up on my back in pain.
Best Moment this Week: * Seeing the kids smile
* Getting my new mug “Raise World Changers” from TwinBearApparel–which has given me a much more positive outlook on our life and our challenges in this life
* Getting a ton of items checked off my Better as Us organization challenge and our house is bringing me more joy.
Miss Anything? Being able to get comfortable when I snuggle up or just flexible to get stuff done.
Movement: Still having a great deal and it is getting more predictable at times. It was painful a couple times with an appendage scraping across the whole stomach in a big roll.
Food Craving? Nothing really
Anything making you queasy or sick? A couple days after eating dinner I was so nauseous I had to have some mints in order to feel like I could keep the food down enough to move about the house.
Bellybutton in our out? out
Wedding Rings on or off? on
Happy or Moody most of the time? Mix
Looking forward to?  My glucose test to rule out that “risk,” hearing baby heartbeat, and just watching baby move and my belly grow with it.
Labor Signs? braxton hicks that can be more painful or leave me sore after.
Anything Else? Today marks 16 years that Alex asked me to be his girlfriend. We have been together ever since and through so much. I love that we have so much history and “life” behind us and our relationship to help us continue to gain strength, love, and memories as we go into the many more years and challenges ahead.
