I thought time was going faster but now I feel like it's back on a stand still. 15 more weeks to go! about 1 and a half weeks until my next dr's appointment which is helping time go faster, counting down to the appointments. I cant believe there is only one more week left in July and then it will be the super busy month of August.
This week in baby news her nostrils are open and ready. There is no air in there but she is already practicing breathing. Her lungs inhale and exhale amniotic fluid to sharpen her skills. So when she is ready to make her grand appearance she will be ready to gulp up some air too. She is also sucking and grasping this week. Mostly her thumb but she is also playing with the umbilical cord, however we did see her doing this in our 16 week ultrasound.
Still no crazy cravings. My symptoms right now are terrible back aches. Thankful Corey has been helping and rubbing it, and sleeping with his knee in my back (yes this helps, don't ask why). The other night I was a little dehydrated and had a few braxton hicks contractions but after some water and getting baby to move off of whatever nerve she was sitting on I felt better. All of a sudden today my heartburn came back, so I'm hoping that leaves again. I have still been able to keep up with the gym every other day which should be helping with my back and any other pains. Its been so hot here that some days I go home super swollen but it has always passed by bed time.
My mom comes this weekend :) Super excited to see her, and go to the beach!! Next weekend Corey leaves for about 3 weeks, but during that time I'll get to go to NJ to see everyone and Jenn said she'd drive with me so that will make those 3 weeks go by super fast. As slow as time feels right now I know its about to speed by. One more 4 day training in September and then a trip to NJ in October and then he will live sometime after that. I cant wait for him to leave so he can hurry up and come back :)
