Baby Brittain Bump Pictures

Well I totally fell off the band wagon again! :) Emerson is here and doing amazingly well. I wanted to make sure that I added the rest of my bump pictures so that I will always have them! I left off at 30 weeks so here we go...







Overall, I had a great pregnancy with Emerson. She was a week late and I completely regret not getting a 40 and a 41 week bump picture, but at the time I was so miserably I just didn't even think about it. I missed a few other weeks but, I am so glad that I got the ones that I did! Hopefully I will be able to blog more about her than I did with my pregnancy! :)

Baby Brittain Bumpdate: Week 30

How far along: 30 Weeks

Size of baby: According to the bump.com she is the size of a cucumber. I don't really understand how they pick these veggies. Sometimes the veggie seems bigger during earlier weeks. Oh well...

Gender: It's a Girl! Emerson Ryan Brittain

Total weight gain: I went to the doctor last Wednesday, and I had gained back the 8 pounds I lost plus about 7 pounds. Not too bad so far! :)

Movement: Yes! She moves around a lot! It is crazy to see my stomach making waves when she is moving.

Sleep: Sleeping is starting to get hard. I really want to sleep on my stomach, but I can't. It is also pretty uncomfortable on my side because when I lay on my side she squirms like there is no tomorrow. Maybe I am squishing her! :(

What I miss: I don't really miss anything. We did go to the beach this week and it was hard not being able to do as much as I used to without my feet swelling!

Cravings: I don't think I really have any cravings. I thoroughly enjoy sweets, but I enjoyed them before I got pregnant too! The only thing I would say is a craving would be cereal. I could probably eat it for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I am also not a big fan of meat right now. It just does not taste right to me.

Symptoms: I have had some headaches and some swelling. The swelling was pretty bad at the beach and whenever I get in the car!

Maternity clothes: I am still wearing my normal clothes besides the jeans. I have a few maternity shirts, but for the most part just wearing normal clothes. I am kind of regretting not buying any maternity shorts and now that school is about to start back there are non left in the store. It is all winter clothes! I am starting to run out of shirts that are long enough. I want to look cute, but I really hate spending money on clothes I will only be wearing for a few more months!!

Best moments this week: Getting her monogram painted for her room! And looking at that sweet face all day!
