29 weeks

In two days I will be exactly 29 weeks pregnant.  I'm struggling with my third cold this year.  It seems as if I have no immune system!  I am taking Sudafed and Tylenol, but the combo is not making me feel much better yet.

I've gained about 19 lbs at this point.  I feel her kicking and moving all the time now.  She is especially active when I go to bed and lay on my side.  I can feel her kick and press against the bed, and it wakes me up during the night too.  Mark finished installing all of our new blinds today.  Now we just need to think about buying some real baby furniture.  I really just need a crib and a play-yard bassinet set.  I don't want to go overboard with buying stuff.  We've already acquired some "hand-me-down" baby swings and seats, and even some summer "onesies."

I go back to the doctor in about a week, at 30 weeks.  After that I am supposed to see the doctor every two weeks.  I feel pretty good so far about the doctors and hospital situation, although we haven't done the "tour" that they suggest you do of the hospital.  I don't know if I really need all that - I don't plan on being there that long!

I'm too sick for a picture today, so I will have to update later with the latest belly shot.
