Pregnancy | 28 Week Bumpdate

 

Hello Third Trimester!! I’m finally on the home stretch and into the last 3 months of my pregnancy. 



I’m also really pleased that you’re enjoying my little Bumpdates and following my journey and I’ve really enjoyed recording it this way. So what’s been going on this week?? Let’s jump right into it!

 

How far along?? 28 Weeks. 

 

Maternity Clothes?? Still in need of some good maternity jeans and a good maternity winter coat and maybe some leggings since my bump keeps growing!!
 

 

Sleep: I’m so tired, I’ve not been sleeping well at all for the past 2 weeks, I think I’m getting at most around 3 hours as I’m just so uncomfortable. 
 
Miss Anything?? Just the same old sleep.
 
Movement: Feeling him all the more now which is great and you can see my belly moving now when he does and the munchkin loves it.   
 
Gender: Most definitely a boy.
 
Cravings: No cravings at all!!
 
Labour Signs: Nope!!
 
Symptoms: Lots of lower back pain and pain around my pelvis which is from the growing, I think. I’m feeling very heavy and achy too so not quite sure if it’s because baby sits so low or because my bump may need a little extra support. 
 
Belly Button In or Out?? It’s completely popped out now. 
 
Mood: Just really tired and still trying to carry on and be positive about the whole experience, I still have work and housework to do so I’m just trucking on.  
 
Best Moment This Week: Seeing his face on the 3D scan and having the munchkin experience it too.  

Looking Forward To: Getting the bedroom finished. We’re a little behind due to having a few things crop up like the OH’s car breaking down and us now trying to find a new one. 


I also had my 28 week check at the midwife this week and we got booked into the hospital for a growth scan as he is measuring big. The hospital are happy baby is growing fine, my fluid is normal and thankfully my placenta is not in the way of my cervix. I’ve got a follow up in 3 weeks time just to make sure they’re happy with the results.  

 
I hope you all have a fab weekend and can’t wait to hear what your all up to this week.
 

 

Lots of Love
