Baby O’s Size: Eggplant – about 14.4”, 2.4 lb
Baby O’s developments: He is gaining fat and filling out that wrinkly skin. Lungs are almost fully mature!
Currently Craving: Cold fruity drinks and chocolate chip cookies
Weight gain this week: 1.6 lb (19.4 lb total)
Sleep & Dreams: Sleep has been pretty good lately! No complaints.
How I am feeling: As soon as I hit week 28, I got a headache that lasted for a day. My belly seems to be getting bigger every day, and I find myself adjusting positions on the couch to keep comfortable. My appetite is still about the same as it ever was, even though I keep gaining weight. Maybe eating cookies at night doesn’t help, but I NEED them! Hehe. I don’t feel prepared at all for Wyatt to be here, we still need to set up his room, yikes.
Evidence of Pregnancy Brain: I actually got the calculator out to do 850 minus 2. I saw the answer (848, DUH) and then realized what I had done. That is bad!

Movement: I’m starting to feel more squirming movements. I guess he is running out of room in there.
Appointments: Had my 28 week appointment yesterday! I gained 9 lbs on their scale since the last visit, ugh. The nurse at the doctor’s office said “I think you hit your growth spurt”. She assured me it was normal so that made me feel a tad bit better. I got my Rhogam shot, which was not bad. It felt like a sharp pinch for a few seconds and that’s it. I passed my Glucose Test! But my iron is slightly low so I will start taking an iron supplement. Wyatt’s heartbeat was a strong 153. I come back in 3 weeks for my next appointment.
Exercise: I worked out 2 times (ish). I did Tracy Anderson Pregnancy Project Month 5, and walked almost 2 miles around San Fran on Saturday. I’ll talk about my San Fran overnight trip tomorrow!
Innie or outie: Innie
Stretch marks: None yet, woohoo!
Rings on or off: On
Maternity wear: The Gap at Union Square in San Francisco had a decent maternity section. I bought a sweater, t-shirt, and pair of jeans.
Baby related purchases: Started his book collection! My fave is Goodnight, Goodnight Construction Site, especially since Jay is in the industry.
There is nothing wrong with some cookies especially if Wyatt wants some
Haha. I hope you post pictures of Wyatt’s nursery when you are done decorating. I can’t wait to see!
I’ve been craving cookies too!! but they have to be chocolate!! LOL Just so happens, I made up a new double chocolate cookie recipe that leans towards the healthy side! It’ll be posted tomorrow!
I think it’s awesome that you’re starting his book collection! I think that part would be so much fun.
lookin good
Keep eating those cookies 
You deserve them!
Haha, no worries with the pregnancy brain. Totally normal, I hear.
Congrats on passing your glucose test!!
That’s how I’ve been feeling about ice cream lately. Sweet tooth is definitely back with a vengeance. I wish I had had your nurse at my last prenatal appt! It’s nice that she was encouraging about it. I think my baby went through a growth spurt too, though I agree that my appetite feels pretty normal. Glad you’re still feeling good overall!
I love that you have started your book collection. I already have one book too for our lil guy, it’s called “I love you Stinky Face”. If you haven’t seen this book, YOU MUST. It’s a great book especially for a lil boy!! Yay on passing your glucose, I just found out today that I passed mine!
You are looking so cute! Wyatt seems to be growing a lot =) Sweet P is, too, so I know how you feel about getting comfy on the couch… and NEEDING to eat the cookies =)
I’m a firm believer in eating what you’re craving… go for those cookies if that’s what you need!
I think feeling a human move inside of you must be the strangest feeling!
