NaBloPoMo Day 20
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
OK, so it is not really that bad! But, seriously! This boy is stubborn!
I am 30 weeks now (as of yesterday) and I have noticed some big changes recently:
Austin has taken up permanent residence under my right ribs. It is a constant battle where I push him down and he kicks me and moves right back. We are definitely going to have to work on obedience!
Also, as I mentioned earlier, my back is really starting to hurt...specifically next to my right shoulder blade. Interestingly enough, that is also where I occasionally get a tingling/pins-and-needles or numb feeling. He must be stepping on a nerve when he is lodging himself under those ribs! It is like he is seeking shelter or something! Anyway, I digress.
He is really starting to get big. They will measure him again Monday, but the last time, he had gained about a pound in three weeks. I know he is getting big because in the past week, I have started feeling actual body parts. I have not been able to completely identify them, but there are definite contours there that were not there before! You can really see my belly move a lot more now, too. So, something is definitely changing there.
Anyway, I am still planning on posting about my showers soon. It will probably be after this weekend. I am planning on working on the nursery and putting everything away this weekend. I should be more organized and prepared to blog about it then. Until then, you will have to use your imagination! :)

You're so cute!! I imagine you DO feel huge, since you're normally about as big around as a toothpick. :-)
I think around 30 weeks was when I started to finally feel good physically, but then I would get out of breath & dizzy if I tried to do anything. Because of my fibroids, my babies lay sideways, and Wendy's head was always smooshed against my left ribs - so I feel your pain!
And did you get your hair cut? It's cute!
You look awesome! I love the hair.
Yeah, I cut my hair about a week ago. I went in for a trim and came out with a new look. I had been planning on growing it out (bangs and all) so I could keep the baby out of it, but then I realized that nothing was going to keep him out of it, so I just cut it off. I will have better pictures of it up soon.
Also, I don't want anyone to get me wrong! I am not saying I am fat, I am just enjoying making it past where I was with Sydney!
Dave and I joked when I was pregnant with Caden about womb discipline as it related to all of the jabs and kicks, etc. (as in, is there such a thing as? and can we implement it?) Maybe we should write a book...
I am right there with you Sandi! I bet there is money to be had in training the child in the womb! I know I would read it! :)
Cute picture!!!
By the way, you won the Warren Barfield CD...email me with your info and I'll get it right to you!!!
