Total Weight Gain/Loss: I think I’m up 1lb but still way below my starting weight
Maternity Clothes: Most of the time I’m in maternity now
Stretch Marks: Nothing really new and the others have quit stretching for now
Sleep: Pretty good but I keep trying to roll onto my belly at night
Movement: All the time but Daddy can’t feel it yet
Food Cravings/Aversions: Grilled cheese and lemonade
Gender: It’s a girl!
Belly Button In or Out: Shallow
What I Miss: Nothing this week
What I am Looking Forward To: Getting started on the nursery. I have just about cleaned out all the junk if I could just get someone to carry it to storage for me. I hope you’re reading this RJ.
Weekly Wisdom: Stay away from the greasy food. I enjoyed a nice lunch consisting of grilled cheese and onion rings that resulted in my 1st ambulance ride and my very own spot in the ER all afternoon. The good news is we finally know it’s my gall bladder giving me problems and the bad news is I need to try and hold out for surgery till September. I don’t want to do anything to put either of us in danger.
Best Moment This Week: Getting to see Gracie since she is growing so big and getting to watch her kick and move around. Also getting all kinds of precious little girl clothes.
Vernix caseosa, a greasy white substance made of lanugo, oil and dead skin cells (yum) now coats baby's skin, shielding it from the amniotic fluid. (Picture yourself after a nine-month bath, and the need for protection makes sense.) You might actually get to see the vernix at birth, especially if baby is premature.
