Hi! I'm Caitlin, wife of James and mama of Maxwell. I am a proud USCG wife, former ballerina, photographer, and retail manager. Being a working mom isn't easy, and this blog gets {seriously} neglected now and then {most of the time}, but I keep up with it when I can.

27 Weeks

27 Weeks


Maxwell's size: Around 14.5 inches, and almost 2 lbs, about as much as a head of cauliflower.  Very exciting developmental news this week:  If Maxwell was to be born today, he would no longer be considered a "micropreemie" and would have about a 95% chance of survival!
How far along: 27 Weeks.
Total weight gain:  19 lbs.
Sleep: Getting more and more uncomfortable, but not totally impossible.  Still getting up 4, 5, 6 times a night to pee though.
Stretch Marks: Still none, though I'm into the 3rd trimester so who knows, they could make an appearance anytime!
Food cravings: None.
Food aversions:  None.
Symptoms: Still suffering from heartburn and indigestion. 
Movement: Still feeling him move quite a bit.  It's so cool to watch him kick and see my belly move.  I still haven't felt any hiccups yet, but hopefully I will soon.
Belly Button: Slowly disappearing, but still an innie.
Nursery Update: I finally received the foam for the cushion in the mail and sewed the cover for it.  It took me about 4 straight hours from cutting fabric to the finished product, but it was worth it.  The cushion looks so cute and it's awesome to know it's something that no one else will have but Maxwell.
