Bumpkin: Week 27 Update

Monday 29/06/15

 

 

 

How far along? 27 weeks

Weight gain: Urgh I dread to think!
 

Maternity clothes?  Nothing new

Stretch marks?  No new ones thankfully

Sleep:  Fine, but I can't wait to have some time off this weekend to have a couple of long lies. Although sods law I'll probably be awake at the crack of dawn on those days

Best moment this week: Our magical 4D scan! Bubs is most definitely a girl and looks like her Daddy but with Mummy's pouty lips! She has little tufts of hair, chubby little hands and a teeny button nose! The detail in these scans is amazing- you can see everything right down to the fingernails. I'd definitely recommend, and I wouldn't hesitate to go again with our next pregnancy. For anyone in the Glasgow area, we went to Babyscanning  on Ingram Street and paid £89 for a half-hour scan which included six A4 prints and a DVD, which I can't wait to show her when she's older!
 

Worst moment this week:  Slipping down the stairs. We have wooden stairs in the house, and this isn't the first time it's happened whilst I've been pregnant (though typically never before)! Fortunately I've managed to catch myself both times, but it gives me a fright. Something will have to be done with them before the baby is born, I can't risk slipping with her in my arms!

Miss anything?  Nothing this week

Movement: Loads! I love it, and think I'll really miss it afterwards

Food cravings: Skittles. I've gone through two big bags this week. Oops!

Anything making you queasy or sick: Nope

Gender:  A girly!!! :D

Labour signs:  None

Symptoms: Movement, breathlessness, nosebleeds, pain under my right rib, heartburn, trapped wind

Belly button in or out?  Flat

 

Happy or moody most of the time?  Very happy this week! I have the scan pictures saved on my phone to have a wee peek at whenever I'm down and it cheers me up right away!

Looking forward to:  A friend's wedding at the weekend. I feel I haven't been out in ages, so it will be nice to get dolled up and socialise for a bit!
