30 Week Bumpdate

 How far along? 30 weeks!What is Baby G up to? Baby G is the size of a zucchini and weighing in around 3 pounds. Baby is moving so much, but still not as much as Finn did! I'm hoping this means a calm baby?! Baby is already in the head down position and kicking mama in the ribs pretty much every day. The heartbeat came in around 147 at my appointment last week.How am I feeling? I'm feeling more like myself lately. The last month or so was rough, emotionally. My hormones were taking over and I either felt incredibly high or incredibly low. I'm feeling much more balanced as of today. My anxiety is still poking through a bit - mainly anxious about real life things like switching Finn's daycare, labor and delivery, and introducing another member to our family. Oh, and the whole newborn, no sleep thing. Physically, my body is getting tired, but I'm hanging in. I really have enjoyed the physical growth part of pregnancy this time around. I haven't been as hard on myself with the weight gain knowing that a year from now, I will have my body back as long as I put the work in!What am I wearing? It's starting to cool down slightly here, so I'm rotating some sweaters into my wardrobe. However, dresses are really all that fit me right now!

What am I craving/eating? Nothing too specific. I think I'm actually at that point where food just causes heartburn, so I'm not really interested in anything at all.What's on my mind lately? As I mentioned above, we are switching Finn's daycare. He has been at the same place since I went back to work two years ago, but since moving, the drive is adding almost 2 hours to my day. We found a place closer to home, which will be nice for everyone, but I'm really stressed about how Finn will transition to a new school.What am I looking forward to? Not quite looking forward to it, but Hurricane Florence is supposed to impact our area this weekend, so I'm anxious to just get through the worst of it. I know we will not get nearly the impact the coast will see, so I'm trying to stay positive.Best moment of the week? My employer recently announced a change in the parental leave policy - 8 weeks, 100% pay. I'm ecstatic, but a little nervous how it will impact me since the change starts while I'm actually out on leave and not beforehand. Regardless, this is a necessary step!
