I feel like I JUST wrote the 28 week post. But, apparently not! Here's what's new this week:
How I'm feeling: Tired. There has been a LOT to get done this week. We move out of our apartment tomorrow, and Mark has been working like 18 hour days, which means he can't really help me too much. Trying to keep Riley happy and get things done has been exhausting! Lucky for me, she takes 2.5 hour naps every day, which means so do I (most days). Other than that, I've been feeling pretty decent, although it's been a little harder to get comfortable sleeping, and getting up to pee 3-4x a night is no fun! Also, one night I had pretty bad heartburn, combined with a headache, which meant not a lot of sleep for me!
Weight gain this week: Unsure.
Total weight gain: 20 pounds. My goal was to gain less than 30, so we'll see how that goes!
What baby is up to: Baby's brain can now control his breathing and body temp, and if he were born now, he'd have a 90% chance of survival. He's busy packing on the pounds (or ounces) these days, and weighs about 3 pounds. He's also approximately 15 inches long. He has been kicking like CRAZY, and is getting a little cramped in there apparently, as I'm feeling body parts up in my ribs. :)
Cravings: Apple pie a la mode. YUM.
Aversions: none.
Best part of the week: Completing my Christmas shopping (I think).
Worst part: Waiting foreverrrrr at the medical records office with a cranky toddler who just wanted milk (that I forgot at home), so I could get all my medical records to bring to NZ. Yikes.
And in case you wanted to see me in all my glory, which I'm sure you do, here I am. Full body shot. Notice no mattress in the crib, since we apparently no longer use cribs in this household for the time being...

What I'm looking forward to: Baby shower on Sunday!!
