Everything went great at the dr. appointment last week except for one small detail....I gained 10 pounds in ONE MONTH. I honestly could not believe it. I asked the nurse to weigh me again because I just knew there had to be an error. I gained 7 pounds in 6 months and then I gain 10 pounds in one month???? Yes ma'am, you better believe it. We are in the double digits now baby. The dr. didnt seem too concerned as long as I dont gain 10lbs every month for the next few months. She said 17lbs is completely normal at 28 weeks. All I know is it pained me to be honest about the weight gain total, but I'm doing it. :)

I'm still feeling pretty great at this point in the pregnancy. I haven't gotten to the miserable/uncomfortable phase yet. The worst thing is probably the cankles right now. My calves, ankles and feet are swollen every day. There's not an ankle bone in sight. Dont beleive me?? Check these sausages out:

Everything else did go great at the dr. She is growing fine and doing great! At 29 weeks the baby's head is in proportion to the rest of the body. Fat continues to accumulate under the skin. The brain can control primitive breathing and body temperature control, and the eyes can move in the sockets. The baby is becoming sensitive to light, sound, taste and smell. She weighs nearly three pounds now and measures about 17 inches. Though she's getting pretty close to her birth length, she still has to chub out a bit. In fact, over the next 11 weeks, she'll more than double — or even come close to tripling — her weight. And as she grows and the room in your womb gets tighter, you'll be less likely to feel those big kicks and more likely to get poked by an elbow or jabbed by a knee.
