27 weeks, 5 days. May 22nd

This week our baby girl is the size of a rutabaga, about 1.5-2.5 lbs and around 13.6-15 inches. 
Grandma and Grandpa are here visiting this week for cousin Trinity's Graduation, they will be here until May 27! We travelled out together from BC on Wednesday. Its nice to be back with Daddy Dennis, in our home.
The weather has been beautiful and everything is going well! 
I feel great!
Still no cravings and my appetite is more manageable now. 
I have a hard time remembering to take my iron supplements (Im anemic and should take liquid iron daily). 
I have been experiencing night sweats, due to hormones fluctuating. I am more emotional but still doing fine. My fingers and ankles (and belly) are more swollen. I have had to take all of my rings off. I should have taken them off earlier as it was challenging and scary to get my rings off my swollen fingers. I feel bare without my wedding rings. 
I feel the baby a lot! I can feel her getting bigger and stronger. I feel her the most when I lie down in the evening. Its a bit creepy sometimes, but I love it, its like a mini whale in my belly flopping and tossing around. :)

  1. Brandi- you are the picture of radiance! Pregnancy looks good on you :) All three of my boys liked to do their karate/gymnastics just as I was laying down to fall asleep. I am so excited for you as you are experiencing all the firsts of a first pregnancy.
