I'm tired. Really tired.
All this week at school, we've had state testing, so it's been less than pleasurable. My building is not air conditioned, and I could not turn the fan on during testing because the papers would blow around. Needless to say it was hot. Airless. On top of that, during testing, it is mandatory to walk around and observe the students at all time. It was hard for someone who is getting a little weeble-ish.
Almost every afternoon this week, I've fought the urge to sleep right after school. This led to falling asleep by about 7:30-8:30 each evening. Like I said, I'm tired.
Oh, I almost forgot! Rambo's furniture came this week! It's gorgeous and we think it looks great in his room. Can you believe it? He has a room. With furniture. A place to sleep that's all his. Amazing.
The Weekly Survey!
How Far Along: 26 weeks, 4 days
Sex: boy
Size of baby: See above, I guess. I will probably find out on Tuesday when I see the high-risk specialist for a scan.
Other things baby is up to: He's inhaling and exhaling small amounts of amniotic fluid, which is essential for the development of his lungs. These so-called breathing movements are also good practice for when he's born and takes that first gulp of air. And he's continuing to put on baby fat.
Total Weight Gain/Loss: +10 (total)???. I didn't weigh myself this week.
Movement: Daily. One night it felt like he was riding a bicycle. Rambo had me worried today though, as he was very lazy. I came home from work and ate a row of Peeps to see if he'd get moving. He did.
Sleep: So tired!
Symptoms: I look like I swallowed a watermelon.
Cravings: None this week. Maybe all the extra sleep is helping? Eh, maybe I'm just too tired to eat.
Aversions: None that I can think of.
Maternity Clothes: Mostly. Still in regular sweatpants and huge t-shirts around the house.
Belly Button: In
Milestones: Rambo's room has furniture in it. Also, it's my last week in the 2nd Trimester! Woot!
Looking forward to: Seeing Rambo on his ultrasound on Tuesday.
What I Miss: Coffee. I want some Blackberry Cream from Java Girl.
Next appointment: May 10th for a visit with the MFM Specialist (high-risk Dr.) for a follow-up to our problem a few weeks ago (see 22 weeks) and for a growth scan. That should be a fun ultrasound since they have level II machines.
Times I used the Doppler in the last week: 0, although if the Peeps didn't work today, I would have had to bust it out.
Weekly bump pic: Baby got front.
