Weeks 26 through 30!

29 Weeks!

How far along: 29 weeks.

Maternity clothes: I have GOT to buy some more dress pants
Sleep: The fight continues
Stretch marks: My mom got me some new lotion that may help sooth them a little.
Best moment of the week: A great date night with my hubby for New Year's. I wasn't sure I would make until midnight, but I did it!
Miss anything: Mainly the mobility, and not needing to cross my legs as a precaution every time I sneeze or cough too forcefully
Movement: Supposedly she's supposed to be working her way into the head down position, but I feel pretty much all of the movement way down low, so I'm not sure what that indicates
