28w1d [+Bump]

Sorry for the blurry photo, but you get the idea...I'm huge! :)
How far along: 28w1d

Total weight gain: 18lbs

Size and growth of the baby: almost 2 1/4lbs. & about 14 3/4 inches long 
From my weekly email:  [S]he can open and close  eyes, which now sport lashes. This movement is more of a reflexive blink than a deliberate opening and closing, but it won't be long before [s]he's batting those beauties at you.

Sex: unknown

Maternity clothes: yes

Sleep: pretty good, the leg cramps have started up again

Best moment(s) of the week: entering the 3rd trimester!!


Movement: can now be seen from the outside

Food cravings/aversions: pop

Morning sickness: gone

Symptoms: feeling much better except when trying to bend over to grab things

Belly button in or out: in, but flattening

What I miss: bending over to pick things up and being able to breath at the same time!

What I'm looking forward to: trying out our home heart rate monitor now that we're 28 weeks! :)
