I’m in Week 30, which means I’m 3/4 of the way done with this pregnancy.  Only 10 more weeks to go!!!  Here is a side-by-side comparison of me at 23 weeks and 30 weeks.  I was shopping for something to wear this weekend and managed to get an almost-identical shot in the dressing room. It also helped that i happened to be wearing the same top.

Kumquat has been really active this week and actually kept me up last night as I tried to fall back asleep after my 3 am potty break.  Last week, as I was sitting at my desk at work, I felt this rhythmic tapping inside for a good minute.  Kumquat had hiccups!!  That’s pretty darn cool.  Now it seems like she gets them almost everyday.

So far I’ve been feeling just fine.  Haven’t gained a ton of weight in the past couple weeks.  My ankles or feet haven’t swollen up yet and don’t have any stretch marks yet.  I’m crossing my fingers that it stays this way.  I’m just extra-congested this week to the point where I think I may have a cold when I really don’t.  Otherwise, I have no complaints.  I sure do miss my wine glass though.

The whole preggo brain thing might actually be true too.  Last Thursday, I rushed to get out of work by 3 pm to catch BART and get to my doctor’s office for a 4:10 appointment.  As I walked up the stairs, I was so proud to have arrived with 5 minutes to spare.  It’s too bad that when I checked in, my appointment wasn’t until the next day.  Doh!  So, I had to reschedule for this Thursday.  I’m such a dummy.
