28 weeks pregnancy update / ssw 28

This week I went to the UV studio because I wanted to put on a little tan. My pigments were irritated already before I was pregnant, which has gotten a lot better with using the right products and have returned after my little tanning session now. Also my linea nigra has very slightly appeared which must probably also be referred to tanning. I don´t mind these little irritations, the line is barely to see and I usually wear powder or a bb cream on my face when I go out.

I´ve also done some real progress in Lillian´s closet. She has about 1 million pants! It´s 6 blocks of pants.. I think I´ve never had so many myself in my whole life, haha! ;) 

Left side from top to bottom is cardigans, t-shirts, pants, onesies and sleepwear. And on the right side I have folded all the dresses that are still too big. On the hangers I have all her blouses and also the dresses from size 50-62, as well as her outdoor jackets of which one is in the wash right now, but both are size 62.

By the end of this week I added all her socks, thights and hats as well into the inlay at the bottom part.

Further than that the baby gym from Fisher Price has finally arrived and is in good order! The one we were sent initially was broken and so we are happy that everything is fine now! :)

The giraffe in the corner is holding a little mirror and the leaf in the from is rattling. When ever she will move music and lights will turn on.

And this will be her view up - I love the butterflies and the monkey! :)

We opted for a jungle themed one and think this is really cool! Daddy is also very proud because he bought his daughters first fitness studio! :)

On Saturday we were also invited to a home cocktail party from one friend of my mamiclub. It felt so good to go out again in an calm environment of 6 pregnant women with her men :) I felt like mommy goes party! Wohoo! Sadly we forgot to take pictures :(
However this is what my belly looks like this week!

How far along? I finished the 28.th week and I am in the third trimester now!

Total weight gain: Exact 13kg until now.
Bump measure: It´s huge! Although measured it is 95cm. I must admit that it is hard to find always the right place to measure and it alters as I see during the process. However of course it depends of what I have eaten already that day, but I cannot always remember to measure right before breakfast.

Maternity clothes? I am only wearing my maternity clothes or the normal clothes like leggings and shirt that I bought one or two sizes bigger. As I do not want to stretch out my normal clothes too much (except when they are old... ;) ) Oh yes and this week I added a mama relax pant to my closet, it´s from a local supermarket called Lidl and it´s fabric is super comfy!! :)

Stretch marks? Not until now. I am still using the weleda pregnancy oil against stretch marks at least twice a day.
Fitness: I have tried the aqua fitness for preggers again and fell asleep for 4 hours afterwards - definitively too exhausting for me. On thursday I had an appointment at the hospital with my midwife and decided to go by bike, also a bit exhausting and even painful. :(

Sleep: It´s ok although I feel my belly hurts sometimes when I go to bed and I can´t find a comfy position right away. The last nights I slept through which was wonderful!

Best moment this week: When I saw my happy husband with his new xbox that I got him as a pre-present for his birthday this year! He looked so happy! <3 And Cutie said I am the best! Awww :)))

Miss anything? My figure :( Don´t get me wrong I love being pregnant and I also love my big belly! <3 Only sometimes when it gets uncomfortable/painful and it´s not so easy to move I feel like I want to be back to my normal size right after birth! ;)

Movement: A lot!

Food/cravings: Fries this week! Had them once at a greek restaurant.

Anything making you quesy or sick? No.

Gender: Girl.

Labor signs: No.

Symptoms: I got a headache again and made a quick appointment for an accupunctural session - I hope it will get me through the pregnancy, because I don´t want to take too much tablets. I felt tired and exhausted this week somehow I think I am a bit low on energy right now and want to go outside more to get more fresh air. Other than that I felt pain in the uterus and belly more often and wanted to calm down a bit. I am so glad that I musn´t work anymore I could never get that managed!!

Belly button in or out? In.

Wedding rings on or off? Off - just to be on the safe side I decided not to wear them anymore.

Happy or moody most of the time? Happy!

Looking forward to: Not so stressful week.
