Monday Morning Pop Tart

Week 27: Well the overtime continues Pop Tart - especially for your daddy. I’m hoping this will slow down long before your arrival. =) You’re consistently moving now. I feel you wiggling, flipping, jabbing, and stretching off and on all day. I’ve also been noticing more cramping and tightening. All to prepare me for the your big birthday party I suppose. As more babies are being born around us, we’re getting even more excited to meet you and see just who you are. Of course there’s no way we could be anything short of super impressed. It’s just fun to think about I guess.

Maternity Clothes: Yes and even some of those are getting pretty tight.

Gender: It's a surprise! 

Movement: Yep! Lots - for the most part.

Sleep: Off and on.

Symptoms: More swelling and headaches, back/hip pain, random bouts of nausea (hoping this is a fluke), heartburn, cramping... nothing new really except the nausea.
