As of today I am 26 weeks and 5 days into pregnancy! That means only 94 more days until Baby Tinch's expected arrival! We still have so much to do to prepare and Baby T has lots more growing to do before then, but it seems a little closer every day to when we meet this little boy or girl who has been kicking me! Here are some milestones this week:
Baby T is the size of a hothouse cucumber (not sure what that is but I think it's an English cucumber without seeds...also the font color inspiration this week) or around 14 inches and weighs about 2 pounds! He/she can detect light this week and can hear outside sounds including Eric's voice! I am still feeling great for the most part, I am not sleeping as well because I have to get up to go to the bathroom at least twice during the night, some nights up to 5 times! I also continue to grow larger by the day which is still a little surreal for me but I know the large person in the mirror and on the scale is getting larger for a very good reason. I refuse to worry too much about it, as long as he or she is healthy I can adjust my body later. I also started to have Braxton Hicks contractions this week. The midwife warned me that these would start and sure enough, they did! They don't hurt really, my belly just gets super tight and kind of lop-sided looking, it's strange but not too scary because I knew to expect them!
I would post a belly pic but my camera cord is still missing somewhere in this mess of a nursery! Hopefully after this weekend full of painting and staining I will find it and the nursery will be in working order! Have a great weekend everyone!
