Size of baby: Acorn squash, about 2.5-3.5lbs.
Symptoms: Getting to the uncomfortable stage, especially when trying to sleep. Braxton Hicks have also become much more frequent. And heartburn...at least it started a lot later than my last pregnancy and so far isn't nearly as severe, more just annoying.
Movement: Oh yes - this little one does flips and somersaults all day and all night! I've had a few good jabs from feet and elbows to the point where it almost hurts a little from the inside, but I still enjoy feeling all the movement. I've been noticing some hiccups here and there too.
Cravings: Sweets, which is pretty typical for me, and probably not really a true "craving". :)
Most looking forward to: The cooler weather of fall, and maybe some shopping for some more fall-ish maternity clothes.
My husband and his dad also started working on finishing our basement this weekend, so it'll be fun getting to pick paint colors and all the finishings and putting it all together. We're hoping to have it done by the time baby gets here - hopefully we're not being too ambitious!!

Amen to cooler weather! Can't wait to see the basement!
