28 Weeks - 3rd Trimester!

The end is near! Well, 3 months near. 

How far along? 28 weeks
How big is the peanut? Eggplant, she was 2lbs at our 25 week ultrasound, so I think she has to be just under 3lbs by now
Total weight gain/loss? I don't even want to go there! I'm up 35lbs, already. I don't care, I'm healthy and so is baby girl. I really think I'm just going to stop weighing myself.
Maternity clothes? Yep and I had to buy some larger pants *crying face* and some long sleeved tops. I need to find some cheap sweaters!
Sleep? Not bad. I've only been getting up once a night to go to the bathroom
Best moment this week? Joe & I went to a consignment sale this past weekend and we got an Ergo carrier for $50, a rocker & stool for $50, and a bunch of baby clothes! I also met a great lady who was taking pictures, she is looking for mom's who want her there when the baby is born for those first pictures and she's offering 1/2 off for both sessions. So it would normally be $150 for the birthing session and $150 for the infant session but I'll get both for $150! Now I just have to check if she can be in the room with us. I really want those first pictures when we meet our daughter, especially Joe's face. He's getting so excited. Last night he watched a live birth online and was reading articles for hours. I love that he is a guy that loves to do research on things and he's really taking this seriously! I am very lucky to have him as a husband. 
Symptoms? Braxton hicks and some bruising in the lower girly region, where my leg meets my 'ya know'. Not sure what that is from, maybe from baby girl kicking me so hard......
Food cravings? Everything (see weight gain above)
Food aversions? Nothing
Gender? Baby girl!
Labor signs? Nope, just some BH's
Belly button in or out? all the way out, it's pretty cute!
Movement? Lots of movement, like rolling from one side to the other movement!
Wedding rings on or off? Now that it's chilly out, my rings fit some days. No way am I getting my wedding band on first thing in the morning, so I wear my grandma's ring most days. 
What I miss? This week I miss sitting comfortably and being able to tie my shoes
What I'm looking forward to? I get my Rhogram shot this Friday, not looking forward to that but I get to ask some questions I have
Milestones? 3rd trimester!
Bump? A little bare belly for ya!
