30 Weeks (Round 2)

How far along? 30 weeks and 3 days

Total weight gain/loss? Up 29.7 pounds. And you'll be happy to know I've stopped weighing myself every day and have been much calmer since then.

Maternity clothes? There is nothing else at all that fits now.

Stretch marks? Nothing new has popped up, thankfully.

Sleep? Meh.  I'm waking up every night with cramps in my calves, which makes for a less than peaceful night's sleep.  Otherwise, I'm sleeping well - unlike with Lukas, I don't feel like I've yet gotten to that point where I cannot find a comfortable position to sleep in.  Once I hit the pillow, I'm pretty much out until my bladder or calves wake me up.

Best moment last week? Having my boys shower me with love on my birthday.  And the week before that we were at the beach, so that was a pretty amazing week all around.

Movement? Dude is busy in there.  I'm starting to fear I'll birth an octopus (with sharp elbows) rather than a baby boy.

Food cravings? Cucumbers with pimento cheese.

Food aversions? Bread products seem to be giving me heartburn, so I'm trying to stay away from too much bread, but that doesn't always go so well.  I love carbs.

Gender? More blue for this girl.

Labor signs? Just some Braxton Hicks contractions.

Belly button in/out? Half & half.

What I miss: Raw sushi, high heels and wine.

What I am looking forward to: Spending the weekend with my boys.  I really enjoyed spending all day for seven days with them at the beach...I think I could really dig the stay at home mom thing.

Milestones: We've officially decided that the boys will share a room.  And by officially decided, I mean until I change my mind again next week.  But really, they'll share a room.  Oh and another milestone, though not exactly pregnancy related but worth noting, I've been downgraded to "mom".  Lukas has started calling me mom rather than mommy or momma and for some reason it makes me really sad.  He's no longer a little baby or even little toddler - he's a growing-up-so-freaking-fast boy.
