28 weeks

I have had a great week.  Tuesday, I took the day off for "a day of appointments."  I had a Dr. appt and did my glucose testing.  I will hear something in the next few days if there is a problem.  I also had an eye appointment, therapy and Emar and I had our 3D ultrasound.  It was amazing.  Here are a few pics.  Little man didn't want to move his hand from his face very much.

Pregnancy Highlights:

How Far Along: 28 weeks 4 days

Size of baby: Brett is the size of  a small cabbage;  17  inches long and weighs 2.9 pounds!  152 bpm

Weight Gain/Loss:  Up 10 lbs total (1st trimester= 1 lb; 2nd trimester = 6 lbs; 3rd trimester= 3 lbs)

Maternity Clothes: Definitely! 

Gender: The Chinese Calendar was right- it's a BOY! Brett James Marcol

Movement:  I am feeling Brett ALL.THE.TIME. now.  
 
Sleep: Been good- still wake up 2-3 times to pee.  I wish my body would sleep more though:(  Internal Brett alarm clock sucks

What I miss: my memory

Cravings:  Tums and anything that won't give me heartburn (which seems about everything;( ). 

Symptoms:   peeing,  2 s 6 stretch marks on my belly (look like varicose veins).  My acid reflux has gotten out of control.  Dr. Duff changed my meds- started Prilosec today.    I am still eating at least 6 tums a day and wake up occasionally 'choking' from the acid. 

Best Moment this week: Seeing Brett in 3D/4D and hearing his heartbeat
