Week 27 Day 3

So this is my child! This is Clara.

The midwife told us that she would be born with hair! Also, that is for sure my nose and my pathetic chin. So there’s that.

How far along? 27 weeks and 3 days

Total weight gain/loss:I’ve gained 2kg during my 3 weeks holiday away from work 🙈 I really need to eat some god damn veggies. So that makes a total of minus 3kg since getting pregnant. Clara should be about 1200g according to the scan

Maternity clothes? mostly dresses and leggings. I don’t really want to buy anymore, but at the same time I don’t want to only wear 4 different things. It’s a struggle

Skin changes? Actually my face kind of cleared up. Though I’ve still got some hormonal dots on my arms and legs. It’s not very sexy. I use A LOT of sunscreen!! I’ve been outside a lot but I haven’t caught a tan yet

Sleep: It’s getting worse.

Best moment this week: Getting a 3D scan and seeing her little nose

Lowest moment this week: A disagreement with René about a shelf

Movement: Lots! I love the ‘you push I push game. Also I feel like she’s responding to voices

Food cravings: I had 2 soda cans in one (1) sitting. I’m usually not keen on soda. So it was a little wild. In 3 hours I had the same amount of soda I usually have in a year!

Food aversions: A salad René brought home. It was so nasty.

Morning sickness/Nausea: I sometimes feel nauseated after eating.

Something I physically couldn’t do: Get up from the floor, where I’ve been squatting for 5 minutes. My body simply refused to move and I had to be pulled up.

Leakage: I really need to do my kegels…..

Something I bought: Stuff for DIY crochet things.

Any labor signs or new weird pains?: I’ve had a lot more BH lately. My doctor said she could book me for a ‘cervix appointment’ but I declined. I don’t think I’m going into labour. It’s just BH

Any swelling? NOPE!! And my belly button is not out and about yet. I’m really proud of this 😂 like you know. I look like shit, but I can still wear cute sandals and my belly button in somewhat normal.
