30 Weeks

How far along? 30 weeks

Total weight gain: 33 lbs.
Blood pressure: 110/60, hope it stays that way! 
Sleep: Not so great anymore.
Best moment: Feeling you move ALL the time!
Movement: You are starting to get kind of wild in there and making me pretty sore!
Food cravings: the usual plus eggs. I have been really thirsty, but water just isn't cutting it. I have to add something to it to actually enjoy it.

Anything making you queasy or sick: no

Symptoms: my ribs are extremely sore, leg cramps, Braxton Hicks multiple times a day, swollen feet, back pain, heartburn, shortness of breath

Belly Button in or out? I'm pretty sure it might explode at any moment.
Wedding rings on or off? still on...barely.
Looking forward to: Seeing family for the boys' birthday party and my next appointment.
Baby's heartrate: 140ish bpm

I went to the doctor on Wednesday and the midwife said you will probably be at least 9 lbs. unless you are a girl and then maybe a little less. I'm not sure why we have such big babies, but as long as you are healthy I'm okay with that. You are head down and the likelihood of you becoming breech at this point is small. I am starting to reach the uncomfortable stage with Shrek feet, heartburn, not being able to breathe and ribs that feel like they are on f-i-r-e. Laci sent me some books about natural childbirth so I'm trying to be a little more prepared for your birth than I was for Hudson's. I totally winged that one and I'm not really sure how. I had my mind made up and I'm glad I didn't let anybody talk me out of it. The good thing is that I don't really remember the pain. Even though this is the third time I've done this, I felt like I should be more prepared so that I can have the best chance at the kind of birth I want in case things go differently than last time. Speaking of, I'm really hoping that I don't go into labor during rush hour. Can you help me out with that? :)
