Davis and Whitney: 28 weeks

28 weeks is such a milestone for our family because it was when Ashlee delivered her first little girl Brooklyn. She is a total miracle. It's crazy to think that I could potentially deliver early too and I can't imagine delivering as early as Ash did. Well for that matter include Megan. She delivered Beau at 31 weeks, he is totally fine now but an early baby is just so scary because there are so many things working against them.
But I am feeling great so I have good vibes about keeping Lexi in my tummy for a lot longer. I have started getting braxton hicks and stuff like that but they aren't too bad and not very often. I have my next doctors appointment on the 27th and I also will do my glucose test that day, cross your fingers for me.

Some funny things to remember:
-Lexi hides under my right rib ALL DAY LONG
-Kicks the heck out of my rib-or punches I can't tell which end but she is making it well known she is under there.
-She has started rolling and my stomach will go lopsided and way hard on the spot where she is
-My feet have been swollen and not gone down since 26 weeks
-At 25 weeks I started getting sick in the mornings again so I eat as quick as I can.
-Started having braxton hicks sort of things in San Diego at the family reunion-that would put me at 25-26 weeks
-I feel like my nose is swollen and has grown, super attractive
-I totally have these lovely things called stretch marks on my hips and upper thighs.... or as I like to call them "the little shits".
-I sleep awful now at night, and keep poor Davis up because I toss and turn since I can't get comfortable.
-I can lay on my back and breath just fine but it hurts my lower back after like 30 seconds
-Almost all the people I work with like to tell me how round or big or swollen I am and that they can't believe I am already waddling. Ok really did kindness and just "not saying anything at all if it isn't nice" go out of style? So in response I think to myself and pretend I am telling them that at least its a problem I can fix once the baby is gone unlike them. And I did say to one person, I waddle because I have scoliosis and it is really painful to walk in general for me on a day to day basis even when I am not pregnant. No I don't really have scoliosis but they deserve to feel bad. Hormones much anyone?
-I can now tell where Lexi is in my stomach and for the past 2 weeks she has stayed on my right side under my rib. I never felt that bad for girls who would have babies under their ribs and be constantly pushing on them to get them to move, but now I feel their pain. It's the weirdest feeling in the world, sometimes it kills, sometimes it tickles and sometimes you can't even breath. Pregnancy sounds like loads of fun huh. :)
