28 weeks!

Today is my 28 weeks mark! These past few weeks have been going by so fast!! It also probably helps that I have been keeping myself busy, because even though it is going by fast I am starting to feel so impatient to be able to hold my little one!

Right now we are slowly getting ready for baby. I kind of feel like we are not quite ready and don't even have close to what we need! Hopefully we get some good stuff at my baby showers to help me feel less stressed. Although I can tell you this much, baby girl has a lot of clothes to dress her for quite awhile :) I am having way too much fun with all this baby clothes shopping!

Well at 28 weeks Baby girl has become quite active! Even more active than she was before. She pulls some crazy stunts in there, which I absolutely love feeling, besides a few small exceptions, like when she decides to kick dangerously close to my ribs -OR- when she decides to be awake and crazy active at 3 AM. But other than that I am in love with all those crazy gymnastic stunts she trying out in my belly.

According to "what to expect" My baby is:

•  17 inches tall and close to 3 pounds
• Her wrinkled skin is smoothing out as fat deposits underneath her skin
• Her "living quarters" are getting pretty tight now, so any jabs I feel are going to be mostly knees and elbows. 
• She is getting stronger, which also means so will her kicks 
• She will respond to different stimuli; sound, movements and light. 

As for me:

• I feel like I am starting to get at the uncomfortable stage, well I feel like I have been there for awhile but its getting worse. 
• My ribs HURT, even if baby girl is no where close to them, they just ache.
• I have had heart burn galore. I have actually had it for the past couple weeks unfortunately. 
• I feel like I am HUGE! My mom and sister ask if I am sure I don't have two in there. Which wouldn't surprise me if I did. ;)
