29 Weeks

29 weeks.. I cannot believe that soon our countdown will be in the single digits. The other day I felt like this pregnancy went SUPER fast. I am REALLY REALLY trying to enjoy every single day of this pregnancy. When I was pregnant with Lucy I counted down each and every minute until she was here. With this one I feel like I am trying to soak up these last few months of being pregnant, because I know I will miss it like crazy soo soon. 

As mentioned in a previous post, I got started working on some decor for the nursery this week. It was way to much fun, and I can't wait to do more and see it hung in the nursery, although I have found the perfect place for it in my dining room.. so we will see if it ever makes it to baby E's room. I am getting really anxious to get our room all prepared for her. That's just who I am, I had Lucy's room completely decorated like 2 months before she arrived :) I have been way more relaxed this go around. 

I felt pretty great this week to be honest. I didn't feel like she was incredibly low like I did last week, and I started cutting out a few things close to bed time to settle her down so I could fall asleep at a reasonable hour :) I cut out sugar and dairy from about 5:30/6:00 pm on and that really seemed to help. I also have been able to cut out quite a bit of sugar, this pregnancy has been killing me with all the sugar I have been craving and consuming. I can honestly say that this week I was able to eat like my old self which was a relief, I felt so much better. I have been craving yogurt and granola with fresh strawberries and bananas.. okay I may or may not of had to take a break writing this post to make my second bowl ;) Lunches I have been craving fresh salads or protein packed smoothies. Dinner is pretty much whatever I make, nothing too crazy and it usually always is something I KNOW lucy will eat ;)

This is a Liz Lange Maternity Maxi that I purchased while pregnant with Lucy. It is the most comfortable dress EVER! I will most likely be wearing this the remainder of the pregnancy ;)

How far along: 29 Weeks

 Maternity clothes: Nothing still rocking my regular wardrobe, can't say it's the most comfortable though.. I also purchased a bikini the other day :) luckily it's on backorder, ready for some motivation. 

Stretch marks: No, I use Bio Oil as well as the Honest Belly Balm night and morning 

Sleep: Better this week. I felt like I have gotten plenty of sleep :)
