I'm definitely getting bigger. My weight gain has been pretty good, but I've gained 3lbs in the last two weeks alone. That's not a good trend! I have been craving lots of sweet lately, so lots of baking has been done which obviously doesn't help the weight gain! Getting up and around is a bit trickier too. I also had to invest in some slip-on shoes since tying my sneaks has become a joke :o) Baby is getting bigger too, that's for sure. Her movements can get pretty uncomfortable sometimes, but I still watch my belly in awe!
Sleep is getting more difficult. I'm waking up a lot, mostly to pee, which is mystifying since I can go for long stretches of time during the day without hitting the bathroom, but wake up every 1.5 hours at night?? I also think maybe Baby is waking me up, then I realize my hip aches or something and I have to reposition myself, then fall asleep again, etc, etc, etc.
Food is getting tricky too. Either I'm eating something that doesn't agree with me or my stomach is very squished or it's the lack of sleep, but something is causing my tummy to not feel so well... It's been a game of trial and error with certain foods, though I think I figured out that fruit juices are just too acidic for me right now, and I feel sick a few hours afterwards. That's my hypothesis for today anyway.
Overall, I've been very lucky this pregnancy and have really loved being pregnant. I may be jinxing myself, but I don't care, it's true and I think I'll even miss it a bit when it's over, but I am so excited to welcome our beautiful little baby to this (very big, very scary, but wonderful) world!

You're doing such an awesome job, hang in there.
PS...I hope I have more than one in my belly since this is probably the only one we'll get.
