Baby Janecek: 29 Week Pregnancy Update

29 weeks :)

3rd trimester already, time is flying!!!

How Far Along: 29 weeks

Gender: Girl :)

Baby is the size of: A butternut squash (about 15 inches long from head to heel)

Symptoms: Still a bit sleepy and the heartburn isn’t too fun, but overall feeling great!

Sleep: Sleep is good when Im not up going on a potty run!

Movement: Very active, seems to be most active around lunch time, after supper, and then about 3 or 4 am!

Food cravings: Green olive pizza

Anything making you queasy or sick: Still just Taco Bell-PUKE!

Miss anything: Nope

Belly button in or out: In

Maternity Clothes: Mostly all maternity pants, and a little of both when it comes to shirts.

Wedding ring on or off: On!!! But only with this neat little rubber device I found that attaches to the back of my ring so it fits snug!

Labor signs: Nope

Strangest Moment of the Week: Nothing really too strange happening lately! I am really feeling pretty darn good an baby seems to be quite active these days so it’s really fun just to relax at night and watch and feel her move around!

Fun moment this past week: The past few weeks we have been taking Lamaze classes and it has been so interesting. I’m not going to lie the first night I left in tears, terrified of what’s to come... but our teacher has done such a great job informing us of all that will take place and all of the comfort measures they take at the hospital to try and make it as smooth as possible. I’m sure I will probably be scared when the day comes but my excitement to hold this little girl in my arms will make it all worthwhile! Kyle’s reaction to some of the things we discuss in class is priceless; his perspective on things is so funny. I’m so thankful to have him by my side through this journey, I couldn’t ask for a better partner!

What I am looking forward to this week: Baby showers start this weekend! Super excited to spend time with family and friends and celebrate Baby J. I have a few different showers so I will try and do a blog post on each one to share some of the highlights! I also have a baby appointment tomorrow and I now start going every 2 weeks, so things are just scooting right along! Still in shock how fast this pregnancy has gone!

Thanks for checking in and take care, Jess

Baby Janecek: 25 Week Pregnancy Update



25 weeks today!

How Far Along: 25 weeks

Gender: Girl :)

Baby is the size of: A rutabaga (About 13 1/2 inches long

Symptoms: Sleepy and I can really tell when Ive overdone it, my back has started to let me know!

Sleep: Pretty sure my days of good peaceful sleep are over probably until Baby J is like 30...lol! I am getting up mutliple times in the night now. I either have to go to the bathroom or cant get comfortable or baby girl is moving and keeping me up (which I dont mind..I love feeling her move).

Movement: Very active, seems to be most active around lunch time, after supper, and then about 3 or 4 am!

Food cravings: Green olive pizza

Anything making you queasy or sick: Still just Taco Bell-PUKE!

Miss anything: Nope

Belly button in or out: In

Maternity Clothes: Mostly all maternity pants, and a little of both when it comes to shirts.

Wedding ring on or off: On!!! But only with this neat little rubber device I found that attaches to the back of my ring so it fits snug!

Labor signs: Nope

Strangest Moment of the Week: Today! We had another ultrasound today, love seeing our little peanut in there! But while the ultrasound tech was performing it, I felt a strong movement from baby girl and not only did I feel it but we wathed the movement on the screen and the ultrasound tech felt it through her wand too!! So neat! Baby girl was measuring right on track however.  I am 25 weeks today and she was measuring 25w1d.  Her heartbeat was 136 and she was 1 lb. 11 oz. So she is doing just fine and growing like a weed in there!

Fun moment this past week: We registered..well I should say partially registered. My mother-in-law Jane and I got all registered at Babies R Us. Now we just have to make time here SOON to get to Target and register there as well. Babies R Us is AWESOME!!! Its like a little baby paradise! So many things and so many choices! We purchased the crib and got that all situated nicely in the nursery. Things are really starting to come togethor, which is exciting and a bit nerve wrecking at the same time. I feel like this pregnancy has FLOWN BY and baby will be here before we know it!!!

What I am looking forward to this week: We start Lamaze classes tonight! It should be fun and very interesting for me and I cannot wait to see some of Kyle's reactions to some of the things well be learning and doing in class! I think it will be very good for us though! I am also excited to finish decorating the nursery...I have alot of things for the room I just need to get them on the walls and start giving her clothes a home. Speaking of clothes...shes not even born yet and she already has a much better wardrobe than me. She is one very loved little lady! Cant wait for January to see her in some of these adorable outfits!

Look at that cute little face :)

She had her mouth open alot and kept sticking her tounge out.

A bottom view of her foot (sideways).  If you look close her first toe and second have quite a gap between them...JUST LIKE MOM!

One of my very best friends, Maquel and I at a wedding this past weekend!
