Pregnancy Calendar Week 30

I will be 30 weeks on Monday.Hallelujah!Even though im dreading the actual birthing process,Im so glad there is an end in sight.10 weeks sounds like a long way to go,but there is an end in sight now,and the countdown is on...im in the last quarter of this race,and i know that every day is getting me closer to the mark,when i will meet my 2nd daughter.i can hardly wait to hold her.She is such a wild one already,she rarely stops wiggling,and i have a feeling she's gonna be just as energetic as McKinley.Lord have mercy.

Ive recently stopped my running(sad face),due to the move,and have decided im done for this pregnancy.I ran through 2 trimesters,and feel like my body benefitted from it greatly...until now.My body has definetly been overworked these last few weeks and I feel its time to rest more now.Im gonna continue with my weight-lifting,and have been doing some yoga here and there,and am enjoying it immensly.its very relaxing which is what i need right now,but a little different and challenging too...in ways differnt than my usual full-throttle workouts(: I really need to be out walking and bike riding more now that my running is on hold,and plan to enjoy the outdoors for whats left of our summer!



Pregnancy Calendar Week 30: "Woohoo! You can finally see the finish line now that you're in the final quarter of the race!!!
Whether you felt like your pregnancy's been flying by or slower than a snail scaling Everest, you've arrived in your thirtieth week and your baby's cookin' beautifully!
In animal news: the fine lanugo hair that covers their little monkey-like body will start falling off this week in preparation for the big day.
Still, don't be too shocked if your baby ape is hairier than you’d anticipated. Some babies keep their lanugo after birth - which is totally normal, and it will fall off eventually.
Checking in on the fat factory: your little porker is getting even cuter with increasingly pudgy arms and legs, thanks to their ever-growing layers of subcutaneous brown fat.
In terms of numbers, your big ol' baby should be weighing in at around 2 pounds 12 ounces (or more!) and be nearly 16 inches long!"

hooray for thirty weeks!! i was surprised to see they're only supposed to weigh 2+ pounds. and here i thought hannah had just been exceptionally tiny all this time!! =o)

well...closer to 3 pounds...most arcticles say three lbs by 30 weeks so maybe she WAS small...but i think they gain half a lb a week in the third tri,so thats why they want them to stay in as long as possible...so much easier for them to gain when their attached to you still
