Baby #2 - 28 Weeks

• How far along: 28 weeks
• Size of baby: measures about 15 inches — about the size of a eggplant — and weighs over 2 pounds
• Total Weight Gain: 18 pounds
• Maternity Clothes: Bella Band with my jeans and dresses to work.  I still have one lonely pair of of my regular pants that fit (and button still too). Maternity pants when I am going to be sitting for a while.
• Gender: We are having a BOY!
• Sleep: Waking up to go to the bathroom every 3 hours.
• Cravings: Chocolate and anything sweet. 
• Anything making you queasy or sick?  Powder scented stuff (lotion, deodorant) and any strong scents. 
• Best moment this week: Chesney felt the baby kick on October 16.  She was so excited!  We made huge progress in the nursery this week. Daddy painted the nursery, and I made curtains.
• What I miss most: Taking a shower without the smell of soap irritating me.
• Symptoms: Nesting, hungry
• What I'm looking forward to: Decorating the nursery
• Movement: This little guy is moving a lot and likes to kick low which makes me feel like I have to go to the bathroom often.
