I totally slacked on my baby bump updates the last 3 weeks!
SO much has happened!
We moved into our new house when I was 25 weeks…
I was hospitalized for kidney stones a few days after we moved (thank God the baby was totally OK!):
I didn’t even TAKE A PICTURE on the 26th week – I tell ya, life is a little hectic as we settle into this new house!
I entered the third trimester the day after I found out I have a cracked rib (ouch!!):
Now allergies + a cracked rib does NOT make for a fun time (think: sneezing, blowing my nose, coughing, etc.)
I’m starting to feel pretttty big lately!
How far along? 27 weeks
Maternity clothes? absolutely! I’m not always wearing maternity shirts or dresses- but jeans are a must!
Sleep: This hasn’t been too good these last few weeks :/
Best moment of the week: WOW feeling this baby MOVE! He/she is getting so much stronger- we can now SEE the movements!!
Miss anything? I’ve been drinking small amounts of coffee when I need it – so not really
Movement: Yes! Baby is starting to kick and move more & more! He/she is pretty active alllll throughout the day (and night now too!)
Food cravings: I’ve been eating orange sherbet & cool whip most nights – delish!!
Anything making you queasy or sick: Nope!
Gender prediction: I have NO idea! I think “boy” one day and “girl” the next – my hubby is saying “girl”! An old Italian lady contemplated this for a while and told me she thinks it’s a boy
Labor signs: Nope – but I think I had my first Braxton-Hicks the other day!
Symptoms: Swelling has started! Especially in my feet – it’s not so bad yet, but I can only imagine what it’s going to be like in the middle of the summer!
Belly button in or out? In – but it’s getting shallower now!
Happy or moody most of the time? Um – both? I have happy days and moody days – there seems to be no real rhyme or reason!
Looking forward to: Now we have moved to seeing the doctor every 2 weeks! Love hearing that strong heartbeat

You look great! SO happy you and baby are doing well! That cracked rib can’t be comfortable though 🙁 Hope it gets better soon!
