27 week update

 

third trimester?!?! i can hardly believe it’s here and i am so excited to meet little nolan in three short months. i’ve been feeling pretty good, minus a little bit of morning sickness coming back. we had our fourth ultrasound last week to check for some possible kidney concerns and it appears that everything is functioning (whew!). his hands were in front of his face most of the time, so i don’t have any profile shots to share. his arms are measuring three weeks ahead of schedule and his legs are two weeks ahead of schedule- so we’re thinking he’s going to be a tall guy just like his parents (not surprised). since he’ll likely be so tall, we are holding off on buying clothes, which has been SOO hard to do! i already told b we are stopping at the mall on our way home from the hospital to pick him up some of the clothes i’ve been wanting to buy, but i have a feeling i’ll change my mind once we load up the car and are ready to go home.

i haven’t been craving anything too out of the ordinary- anything pumpkin and still on a smoothie kick. vegetables are still painful for me to eat, but i’ve managed to get a few down. we registered a few weeks ago and the shower is in less than a month. hard to believe something so small needs so many things. please check out the shop wednesday when it reopens, any purchase will be going straight to our baby fund.

  1. OMG! I didn’t know you were expecting! Congrats! I am 25 weeks now and having a boy, too. Yay for December babies!

  2. Congratulations! Just wanted to say that my kids have been larger from birth so I mostly stocked up ahead of time on 3-6+ month clothes.. My kids barely fit the 0-3- DEFinitely not newborn!! That way I have some things ready.. Haven’t read back but if you’ve had/are having a shower you get a bit of smaller clothes anyhow to get you started. :)
