Mommy to-be quiz at 30 Weeks

• How far along? 30 Weeks!

Total weight gain/loss: 20 lbs total gain

Maternity clothes: Will see what happens in the next few weeks and buy as I need.

• Stretch marks: None but a very long linea negra..

• Sleep: sleep well like every other night and waking up with numbness on right hand oy

Best moment this week: getting pinched with a needle again, not!

• Movement: Constant now and getting strongerrrrr, baby stretches out hard!

Food cravings: apples

Gender: Baby Boy!!

Labor signs: None...Thank the lord...not even close...10 more weeks to go for that! I've been experiencing Braxton Hicks contractions though...I know it is nothing to worry about but they are very uncomfortable.

Belly button in or out? Popped!

• What I miss: my energy, thanks to 3rd trimester!

What I am looking forward to: Getting all the essentials we need for baby since furniture and bedding are all set!

• Weekly Wisdom: Pregnancy is a very joyful time but it can also be filled with worry and concern =( take one day at a time...

• Milestones: 30 Week Mark!! 10 weeks, 73 days to go...

• What is the baby up to? Baby's about 15.7 inches long now, and he weighs almost 3 pounds (like a head of cabbage). A pint and a half of amniotic fluid surrounds him, but that volume will decrease as he gets bigger and takes up more room in my uterus. His eyesight continues to develop, though it's not very keen; even after he's born, he'll keep his eyes closed for a good part of the day. When he does open them, he'll respond to changes in light but will have 20/400 vision — which means he can only make out objects a few inches from his face. (Normal adult vision is 20/20.)
